English and philosophy are mutually supportive subjects that provide distinct but corresponding methodologies for our understanding of the world. The joint study of English literary cultures (including theatre, film and creative writing) and philosophy (including philosophy of language, ethics, metaphysics and philosophy of art) will throw you into some of the oldest debates about the very conditions of possibility for living a meaningful life.
Delve into some of the oldest debates, exploring the human experience through literature and philosophical thought.
Literature and philosophical thought are both interested in questioning the very nature of our existence. Whether it’s exploring the meaning of life, the definition of morality or the role of religion, these big topics will help you tackle the issues of today.
In English, you'll study literature from the medieval period to the present day, with the chance to explore areas as diverse as animal studies, the history of the Gothic, American literature, theatre, creative writing and film.
In philosophy, you'll study the essential cornerstones of the subject (including philosophy of language, ethics, metaphysics and logic) alongside distinctive specialist modules on topics like philosophy of education, philosophy of law, philosophy of the arts, film and philosophy, and feminism.
