This module aims to give you a distinctive critical introduction to British Cultures as broadly conceived. We will study a variety of different cultural forms and genres which range from the late medieval period through to the present day. You will have the opportunity to study familiar material in depth, and also be introduced to a more diverse range of texts and concepts within the scope of British literature and culture. The aim is for you to acquire the skills to interpret and critique this material in relation to their historical, literary, social, and cultural contexts. The module is taught by a convenor with frequent guest contributions from academics in the department with research interests in particular areas.
