We are one of only a few universities in the UK to offer a combined degree that treats the two subjects as a continuum. The course examines the multiple and ever-evolving interactions between the artistic production of classical antiquity and English literature, from Shakespeare to contemporary poets, novelists and dramatists.You will study four modules each year. Your second year comprises entirely of optional modules, enabling you to pursue areas of particular academic interest.
