What the college says

English Literature is an opening up of the world. Literature, like all art, seeks to express something of the human experience of life. It is a means of finding out, for a moment, what it would be like to be someone else. Empathy is key. It is a way of transcending time and space: what would it be like to someone else, somewhere else, sometime else. If you are ready to explore the big issues of life – love, death, God, meaning, relationships – then you are ready for English Literature
