Course Description
Art and English use different languages to ask common questions:
- How do we feel?
- What's happening in the wider world?
- What is our place in society?
During your three years you'll explore an incredible breadth of art - fiction, painting, poetry, sculpture, drama, architecture, graphics, photography, film and more.
By combining these two subjects into one degree you'll get a rich understanding of language - visual, written and spoken - across the centuries.
You'll study English language, literature and drama from Old English to the present day. We have one of the most diverse range of modules of any UK university so you can follow your existing passions and explore new topics.
You will also explore visual cultures across periods, media and societies. All the time you'll be questioning. Why that method? Why that subject? How did people react then? What does it mean now?
You'll be able to choose modules that complement each other, allowing you to look at the same topic in different ways. Project work and a dissertation give further opportunities to draw the subjects together.
It is not necessary to have studied art or history of art to apply for this course.
