About Media And English Literature BA (hons) in York St John University

In both Literature and Media, we are concerned with how texts and different forms of popular culture are formed by and have an impact upon the world around them. You will investigate the styles, techniques and artistic decisions behind these texts. However, you will also always be thinking about their relevance to the political, social and historical contexts they are part of.

On your literature modules you will have the opportunity to choose from a varied selection of periods and genres. You will not study only well known classics, you will also expand your understanding by going beyond the canon to hear from voices on the margins of literary tradition.

In your Media modules you will broaden your knowledge further by engaging with many different forms of media. You will investigate the history, nature and impact of media. As with our literature modules, you will go beyond a traditional western view of media to take a global view. You will also reflect on the power dynamics behind contemporary media, and consider how media responds to and impacts on the biggest political and social issues of our time.
