Bachelor of Arts in Comparative Literature and Culture with International Experience
Program Overview
What does it mean to study comparatively? Our BA Comparative Literature and Culture with International Experience gives you the opportunity to explore connections across national boundaries and different periods from the Renaissance to postmodernity, and to consciously reflect on your critical approach. You will be able to study the literature, thought, history, film and visual culture of the French, German, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese, Spanish and Latin American worlds through a number of comparative modules focusing on specific themes across time and place, as well as through more in-depth modules focusing on a single culture.
You will explore transnational phenomena and you can also pursue an interest in other forms of comparison, for example, between text and image - we offer modules focusing on literary adaptation across media and many other types of encounter between literature and visual culture.
There is no language learning requirement for this course, and all texts will be taught in English translation, but you can develop your language skills to a higher level as part of the degree if you wish. You have the option of studying up to three language modules, including starting at beginner level.
Your third year is normally spent abroad at a partner institution to allow you to develop your language skills and your knowledge of the culture of the language-speaking area you are studying.
You can also apply for a three-year version of the course without a year abroad, and you will normally also be able to transfer to this version of the course during your first or second year of study if you decide you do not wish to study outside of the UK.
