This unit investigates theories of literature and culture and provides a strong understanding of the approaches to interpretation that currently shape literary and cultural studies. Students study key theorists in action and gain a sense of their historical relationships. Students develop and complete an intensive research project on their chosen theoretical area, and articulate and defend positions in literary and cultural theory. This equips students for further study at honours and postgraduate levels, and the advanced research and communication skills have applicability across a diversity of professional careers. -- Course Website
