Overview
Develop your independence, creativity and maturity with our combined course.
English Language and Literature is a course which will give you a chance to pursue your creative interests within a clear framework while developing your analytical skills.
Larkin’s poetry and The Great Gatsby will be studied under the theme of The Individual and Society. You will also study Voices in Speech and Writing, looking at a set drama text, Miller’s All My Sons, as well as podcasts, blogs, speeches, screenplays and travelogues. The stimulus material in the anthology is fascinating!
A coursework submission is required, and the topic will be ‘Identities’. You will produce your own creative fiction and non-fiction work and a critical commentary, stimulated by texts including 1984 by George Orwell and the articles of journalists such as Caitlin Moran and Charlie Brooker.
If you are an independent thinker who enjoys analysing how values and attitudes are created in texts, and you enjoy producing your own imaginative, creative work, this is the course for you!
"The classroom dynamic is amazing - everyone is as passionate about the subject as you are, and I've never had a boring moment, be it studying Maya Angelou or The Great Gatsby." Oliver, English Language and Literature student.
