Bachelor of Arts - Literary and Culture Studies

Have you ever been so inspired by a novel that you made a change in your life? Have you ever been so immersed in a poem or a work of fiction that time has stood still? Do you love the smell of old books? Has literature helped you feel less alone?

Our Literary and Cultural Studies sequence enriches the natural love of reading great stories by giving you the advanced tools you need to understand the cultural contexts of their production.

Whether you are interested in the investigative search for the voices of marginalized authors lost in the archives or analysis of the impact of digital culture and audio books on storytelling, literary study today is a thriving professional field that teaches you how to read complex writing closely, understand the genres and traditions of many cultures, recognize patterns, theorize the impact of works on their contemporary and future communities, and master a range of research methods.
