English Literature and Language with Foundation

About this course

English literature and language together offer two complementary perspectives on the same fundamental subject: how written and spoken language works, what the finest works of English writing achieve, and how the relationship between texts and their readers has evolved over time. Literature study develops the capacity for close, attentive reading and the ability to construct and sustain critical arguments about meaning, form, and context. Language study provides systematic frameworks for understanding how English is structured and used, from phonology and grammar to discourse and sociolinguistics. The combination trains you to move between these perspectives, reading literary texts as linguistic artefacts and understanding language variation and change in its cultural and historical context. At the University of Westminster, this four-year full-time programme opens with a foundation year
