Classical Studies:
This programme is designed to offer students a broad understanding of the culture of the ancient Greco-Roman world, ranging from Homeric Greece through the Classical period to Late Antiquity.
Students will learn about the ancient world, and study, amongst other things, its historical documents and its literature, mythology, civilisation and heritage. Students will study a broad range of Greek and/or Latin literature and civilisation, through the medium of Greek/Latin and English texts, developing their skills in grammar, interpretation and translation.
The Department aims to promote as widely as possible knowledge, understanding and 'ownership' of the ancient world and its reception.
Classical studies give excellent multidisciplinary training in the humanities. The study of the languages, literature, philosophy, art and culture of the ancient world is an enriching experience at university and a good foundation for many types of career.
English:
The English half of this Joint-Honours degree is designed to provide a grounding in the general knowledge and understanding of English Literature from the earliest times to the present day. In its engagement with literature of all periods, the Department of English is committed to maintaining a balance between established traditions of literary study and the latest developments in the subject.
The aims of the course are that students should develop reading skills and critical and conceptual awareness, and that they should acquire a sense of the history, chronological development and contexts of literature and of its various phases and modes, without inertly accepting received ideas of literary history, period or genre.
Students are encouraged to read as many of the most widely known English authors as possible, while being given opportunities to develop their own interests in particular authors and topics.

Students will have the opportunity to consolidate what they have learned in Year One and to use their knowledge, understanding and skills to evaluate critically and formulate evidence-based arguments. Students will extend their analytical skills and their ability to structure their work and present it fluently. They are expected to develop their capacity for self-directed learning (for example, through the researching and writing of essays and coursework assignments). |

Students will have the opportunity to deepen and extend their knowledge and understanding of the main authors, themes, contexts and concepts of study in English literature from the early eighteenth century to the present day through more specialised options. Working with staff on research-engaged Special Subject units, students will be expected to demonstrate their ability to engage in sophisticated critical evaluation of particular texts, topics and authors. Students will also have the opportunity to undertake an independently conceived and researched dissertation conducted either over 15 or 30 weeks.
