Whether undertaken for the continued love of literature, or for personal or professional development, studying our MA English Literature will help you gain a more confident critical voice, and advanced analytical and research skills.
Stories powerfully shape our experiences and identities in the modern world. Books and films instruct us about how the voices of the past inform the present and the future. They tell us about politics, gender, sexuality and race, our landscape, environment and the digital. Stories are told about places and people, but also show how modern myths are made. How can we read such stories critically?
English Literature at Northumbria gives you the key skills to navigate and offer a critique of narrative and storytelling. How is literature politicised? How are classic texts adapted for the contemporary moment? Literature’s continued relevance is everywhere. Our course gives you the skills to understand the importance of literature: who has the authority to influence, and with what motives.
Culminating in a major piece of research of your own, you will shape debate and ideas in your chosen field of literary studies, showing mastery of the discipline and an ability to redefine our approach to the stories that shape our world.
You will be taught by internationally recognised scholars who are at the cutting edge in their field. Our modules draw your ideas and our research specialisms together, allowing you to develop your ideas within communities of research and new ideas.
The Humanities department is home to many exciting research groups. Within English, we have particular strengths in the Early Modern period, the Long Eighteenth Century, Modern and Contemporary, and Gender. The diversity of our expertise means we can support you in pursuing your interests.
This English Literature course is an ideal choice for anyone interested in literature and who wants to develop a mastery of the subject. Whether you aspire to pursue higher research, embark on a publishing Masters or leverage your advanced cultural and intellectual skills in various professional settings, this program offers a well-rounded foundation for success
You might, want to develop your employability prospects or be interested in continuing your studies at PhD level, but are still looking for inspiration on exactly where to focus. The MA will also provide you with the professional skills to succeed within teaching, marketing, publishing, museums/archives, public policy, management, among many others.

During the English Literature MA you will be encouraged to become more aware of the production and determination of meaning by historical, social, political, stylistic, ethnic, gender, geographical and other contexts.
This heightened awareness is facilitated through examining literature produced within a wide range of contexts: different periods; geographical locations; as well as a variety of social backgrounds (institutional, gendered, private, public, domestic). This wide-ranging critical examination opens up new perspectives on literary texts and provides you with the strategies needed to discuss literature in expert and critically informed ways.
The MA offers distinctive research-informed modules from a pool which is reviewed on an annual basis to ensure the quality of the learning experience, while the core modules Critical Contexts and Research Methods: Traditional and Digital will run in all years.

Modules Overview 2024/25
Module information is indicative and is reviewed annually therefore may be subject to change. Applicants will be informed if there are any changes.
Gothic Spaces: Unsettled Borders (Optional,30 Credits)
This module asks you to consider how Gothic texts make use of space, and how particular spaces can be rendered Gothic. You will consider Gothic texts from the birth of the Gothic novel in the aftermath of the French Revolution to contemporary texts in a range of media, including film, television and hypertext. You will learn about recent innovations in critical and cultural theory and use these to offer innovative readings of these texts. You will learn to reflect upon and query the extent to which the gothic’s complex construction of space might intervene in, and expand upon, ongoing debates about gender, race, nationality, and sexuality.
Research Methods: Traditional and Digital (Core,30 Credits)
On this module you will learn key approaches to English literary research – how to plan and carry out rigorous research using a variety of traditional and more modern tools and approaches. The module’s content will help prepare you for the challenge of completing a successful dissertation by empowering your knowledge of and proficiency with literary research tools.
Critical Contexts (Core,30 Credits)
In this module you will learn about some of the key ideas and theories that can help us understand theoretical and conceptual approaches to literary texts. From week to week, readings of primary texts past and present will be informed by selected critical and theoretical work focussed on specific aspects of the material, such as ideological and discursive constructions of gender, race, class, and national identity. This theoretical material will be provided in a Reading Pack of excerpted material, offering a representative sample of a range of thinkers’ work, and motivating further exploration of their ideas. Seminars will allow in-depth discussion of the texts and concepts appropriate to Masters level study. The module aims to problematise our assumptions about how literary texts are constructed in relation to ideological and discursive practices, and about the relationships between texts, theory and contexts. It enables you to acquire skills necessary to analyse literature at the Masters level, using sophisticated, appropriate, and up-to-date critical and theoretical approaches
MA English Literature Dissertation (Core,60 Credits)
This module consists of a 15,000 word dissertation leading to the award of MA in English Literature The dissertation provides the students with the opportunity to produce an extended piece of research on a topic of their own choosing related to English literature. Students will operate at a higher level of independent learning and research than in the taught modules, albeit with the support of a supervisor who has specialist knowledge in the student’s chosen area of interest. The Dissertation is the final part of the MA, and is the culmination of the programme in terms of length, the degree of specialization in subject, complexity of argument and depth of research. Work on the dissertation is supported and enhanced by assessments on the other MA modules, particularly the Research Methods module. During the supervisory sessions students will be encouraged to: • Tackle problems • Outline plans • Submit timely drafts • Balance research and writing • Think critically about the specific problems raised by research • Apply appropriate methodological and theoretical approaches to underpin students’ their research • Demonstrate acuity in selecting approaches, methods, concepts and theories.
The World in Print (Optional,30 Credits)
This module looks in depth at the ways in which literary authors contributed to the transformation in understanding of the place of humanity in the world. Technological, legal and commercial developments meant that print was more prolific in the eighteenth century than ever before. This gave authors new opportunities to explore, construct and query Empire, class, gender, and the natural world. Composed of two interconnected themes, each of which is key to the eighteenth-century world in print, and which represent the research strengths of the department, this module offers an advanced insight into the ways in which the world was mediated by print in the eighteenth century. Through analysing and juxtaposing important representative texts and associated recent critical and theoretical literature, you will consolidate and expand your knowledge of the period’s literature and develop a sophisticated understanding of the current state of the field. The module will be comprised of two of the following four themes, depending upon staff availability. The indicative reading list for each unit is as follows, and each text has been (or if replaced, will be) carefully chosen to cover more than one theme: 1. New Worlds Mary Wortley Montagu, Turkish Embassy Letters (written 1716-18, published 1763) Daniel Defoe, Robinson Crusoe (1719) Charlotte Lennox, The Life of Harriot Stuart, Written by Herself (1750) Phillis Wheatley and Hannah More, selected poems 2. The Natural World Oliver Goldsmith, The Deserted Village (1770) Gilbert White, The Natural History of Selborne (1789) Jane Austen, Mansfield Park (1816) John Clare, Selected Poems (1820–41) 3. The Beau Monde Eliza Haywood, The City Jilt; or, The Alderman Turn'd Beau (1726) Alexander Pope, Moral Essays (1731-35) Richard Brinsley Sheridan, The Rivals (1775) Frances Burney, Evelina (1778) 4. Women in the World Laetitia Pilkington, extracts from Memoirs of Laetitia Pilkington (1748) Sarah Scott, Millennium Hall (1762) Mary Wollstonecraft, Maria: or, The Wrongs of Woman (1798) Anon., The Woman of Colour, A Tale (1808) All modules at Northumbria include a range of reading materials that you are expected to engage with. The reading list for this module can be found at: http://readinglists.northumbria.ac.uk. Indicative list of print history works for assignment one: Elizabeth Eisenstein, The Printing Press as an Agent of Change (1979) Margaret J.M. Ezell, Social Authorship and the Advent of Print (2003) Adrian Johns, The Nature of the Book: Print and Knowledge in the Making (1998) David McKitterick, Print, Manuscript and the Search for Order, 1450-1830 (2003) The Multigraph Collective, Interacting with Print: Elements of Reading in the Era of Print Saturation (2017)

Dual Degrees of Master of Fine Arts in Creative Writing and Master of Arts in English
The post graduate dual degree, Master of Fine Arts (MFA) in Creative Writing and Master of Arts (MA) in English, enables you to earn two degrees at the same time. These complementary courses of study differ in that an MFA focuses on developing artistic skills in the fields of writing and art, while an MA focuses on fields in a theoretical or teaching context. Pairing these two degrees allows you to improve your artistic skills and conduct in-depth research and study and prepares you for a career teaching creative writing, literature, and/or composition at the university or secondary-school level. Graduates who earn an MFA/ MA have also gone on to an extensive range of career fields including publishing, marketing, and pursuing a PhD.
At Arcadia University, you earn your dual degree — an MFA in Creative Writing and an MA in English — in a full time, three-year program. For the first two years, you’ll take MFA and MA courses concurrently. Once you have completed the MFA coursework in your second year, you will focus on the remainder of the required MA courses. Our innovative three-year program combines the practice and study of creative writing with literary scholarship. Our exciting course options include literary and critical studies, creative writing, journalism, rhetoric and composition, cultural studies, and linguistics.
As a full-time MFA/ MA dual degree student, you are eligible to be a Graduate Assistant (GA) for each year you’re enrolled.
UPCOMING EVENTS
Experiential learning.
“Arcadia is a place I was already so familiar and comfortable with, and I had a great experience in the English department as an undergrad student. The dual degree program meant I could study the two things I love together. Part of the program is also spending your second residency in Scotland, and that was a lot of fun!”

English literature and creative writing.
Our Creative Writing and English Literature programmes cover contemporary and historical literature from Romantic poetry and Victorian novels to children’s literature, performance poetry, science fiction, and page-to-screen adaptations. Our students learn about literature and other art-forms, national and international culture and politics, and the relationship between literature, publishing and technology, philosophy and religion, and environment and place.
Over the course of their degree students take modules including Poetic Form and Genre, Theatre and Performance, Publishing and the Book, Writing and Editing Fiction and Nonfiction, Genre Fiction, Victorians to Moderns, Why Literature Matters and The Writer's Craft. Students also specialise in a final year dissertation.
In a dedicated year-long module on the publishing industry we invite celebrated writers and guest speakers from major publishing institutions to help students understand the process of taking a manuscript from author to printed book and beyond into prize structures, rights fairs and literary festivals. Our aim is for students to graduate with a confident sense of how the publishing industry works and a clear idea of where in the industry they might want to work.
Central to everything we do is a love of literature and a thorough and wide-ranging critical and practical discussion of what it means to be a reader and writer today, in the UK and elsewhere in the world. Seminars and workshops are tutor-led opportunities where students learn to present their creative and critical work, to offer and receive feedback, and develop creative, intellectual and technical skills. Workshops and seminar discussions form an essential part of developing creative practice. Degree study in our areas typically consists of lectures and discussion seminars, mixed with student presentations and opportunities to work on critical or creative assignments and projects.
Our modules focus not only on individual creative practice and critical skills but on a lively intellectual engagement with literary history, theory and contemporary production. Students learn to place their creative output in context and actively engage with wider debates about publishing and the place of literature in today’s world.
We also help students develop the technical aspects of writing - editing, grammar, punctuation - in a shame-free environment, enabling them to write fluently and confidently in a variety of genres, including creative nonfiction, and to deepen their understanding of different cultural and literary forms.
Over the course of the year students visit London’s many thriving cultural venues, such as Tate Britain and Tate Modern, The Globe Theatre, the Victoria & Albert Museum of Childhood, and Poetry Unplugged at the Poetry Cafe.
The Anthology project
Creative Writing and English Literature moved into the School of Art, Architecture and Design in 2016/17, and we began collaborating with the tutors and students on the Design, Illustration and Publishing degrees. It was an inspiring process to see the critical and creative work of our students emerge in a shared project like the Anthology book. The design students’ brilliant creative responses gave our students’ writing a beautiful new form. We collaborate on producing a book of design and writing students’ work for the School's annual summer show.
