About English And Drama in University of Salford
Literature and theatre speak to us about the world we live in and about social and cultural issues that affect our lives. In this course you will have the opportunity to study intellectually and creatively, and to explore the relationship between literature, theatre and society.
You will learn to research and analyse literary and performance texts, and work on drama projects that allow you to explore different kinds of plays and theatre practitioners. The English element of the course will equip you with the key skills and analytical tools needed for literary study and will also encourage you to explore social and cultural issues raised by literary texts. Whilst the Drama portion will teach you how to communicate ideas creatively, and to make links between literature and screen and stage performance.
