Inhalt: This module introduces students to the theories and practice of studying English literature. We will be looking at a variety of theoretical concepts and contemporary approaches and applying these to literary texts from different historical periods and genres.

In the module, you will acquire the competencies required to study literature effectively: how to use the library and the internet, how to assess reference material and online resources, and how to present your findings. Our discussion will be based on a range of primary texts including short plays, short stories, poems, and one novel. At the beginning of term, you can vote between the three novels listed below.
