DESCRIPTION
This module takes an interactive approach to the study of literature and aims to enhance students? academic writing skills by integrating the practice of reading and the practice of writing into the teaching of the module. The module uses a selection of poetry, short prose narrative, drama and non-fiction and will focus on a stylistics-based identification of patterns of words, phrases and analyses of grammatical features. The module introduces students to critical responses to specific works of literature and facilitates their written and oral engagement with examples of literary criticism and narrative theory.
