Explore our past through the lens of human creativity.
This two-year part-time Master’s in Literature and Arts offers the opportunity to study the literature and arts of three different periods of British history – ranging from the sixteenth to the nineteenth centuries – in an interdisciplinary manner. It is a part-time course designed so that students can combine study with work or caring responsibilities.
The MSt in Literature and Arts (MLA) is a stand-alone qualification, but it is also an excellent preparation for doctoral work.
