Core Modules
Global Critical Theory
Global Critical Theory addresses a number of topics, such as theories of language, multimodality, the anticolonial and anti-racist imagination, postcolonial gender and intersectional perspectives. You will be encouraged to test the possibilities and limits of various theoretical approaches by drawing on your knowledge of world literatures, as well as on your expertise acquired through other modules.  Influential theoretical approaches will be considered in relation to lesser-studied texts, which may lead you to deploy theories creatively, or to critique and revise dominant theoretical paradigms.
Assessment: 4,000 word essay.

World Literatures Compared introduces you to the range of ways in which literature has been created and experienced across time and space. The module deals with a number of topics, including: Literariness; Circulation and canon formation; Authorship and influence; Figurative Language and Rhetoric; Genre. The materials studied are selected from a range of cultural contexts from across the globe.
