History/English Literature - BA (Hons)

Aberystwyth University

Our joint honours degree in History and English Literature will bring together your interest in the past with the field of literary studies. During your course, you will study literary texts from the medieval through to the contemporary period, and learn about the historical and social contexts in which they were created. A broad range of themes are taught in both departments and you will discover new and interesting ways to analyse and understand the past and the ways in which we have written about it. You will develop similar skills through both parts of your degree and you will graduate with important skills such as research, analysis, fact checking and written and oral communication.
