Course summary
Explore connections and interactions between cultural traditions with our BA in French and Comparative Literature. Your time is split equally between the two subjects, with an equal focus on each. No prior knowledge of French is required.Studying French at Queen Mary means appreciating the diversity of the French-speaking world. You’ll learn not only about metropolitan France, but also about French as a global language, France’s role on the world stage, and the culture and thought of groups who have historically been silenced or excluded, such as women, the working class and ethnic minorities.As a result, besides high-level linguistic and analytical skills, you’ll gain an understanding of cross-cultural issues that will equip you to deal with today’s increasingly globalised world.At the same time, you’ll gain a solid grounding in the discipline of literary studies, making connections between literatures and cultures from around the world, and exploring a host of themes from madness to migration.You’ll spend your third year abroad, an exceptional opportunity to develop your language skills through immersion and boost your intercultural competence.
