About English Literature in University of Salford

As technology continues to make the written word available in increasingly diverse formats to ever-wider audiences, those people with the skills to reach informed judgments about literature--from novels to haikus--are well-placed to participate in the global economy. This course offers you the opportunity to study English Literature in considerable depth and breadth, including a wide range of texts and genres ranging from Elizabethan and Jacobean drama to Irish literature and contemporary poetry.

In your modules, you will learn to analyse and criticise prose, poetry, and plays, which will prepare you to work independently on research in your areas of interest. In addition to the range of literature-based options, you will also have the opportunity to choose modules that both complement your study and range further afield in the areas of languages, film adaptation, and creative writing.
