This subject introduces you to methods of close reading, formal analysis, and creative writing. We work on developing strategies to analyse literary texts and screen texts in detail, to break them down into their component parts, and explain how they work to generate complex meanings. We look closely at how texts are made: from the rhythms of poetry, to the angles of film, and the world-building of novels. As well as critical skills, this subject engages your imaginative and creative skills in response to different narrative forms and genres. When you successfully complete this subject, you will have gained a foundational vocabulary and developed core skills on which to base further studies in English and Writing.
