About English Literary Studies (Twentieth Century and Contemporary), MA - at University of Southampton

Explore 20th century and contemporary English literature with a master's degree at the University of Southampton. Our course gives you the chance to specialise in contemporary culture and history, covering topics such as science and climate change, politics and globalisation, the relationship between literary and visual cultures, sexuality, gender, race and disability. On completion of the course, you'll be ready for a career in teaching, publishing, librarianship or cultural heritage.

You'll get the chance to carry out advanced-level research and independent critical thinking, and to make effective use of archives, manuscripts, and research libraries.
