Literature generates new ideas, represents traditions and reflects society’s changing values. In this subject you will focus on the relationship between literature and large social and historical movements. You will read texts from the 19th to the 21st centuries and develop a versatile critical toolkit of concepts to use throughout your studies. Using these texts and tools, you will be able to analyse literature as a form of social and political expression and explore its relationship to history. Additionally, you will be able to identify how novels and poems reflect, resist, and/or inspire cultural change.
