During this Modern Literature and Culture master’s, you’ll encounter a broad range of nineteenth and twentieth-century literature and culture from Britain, North America and the English-speaking world. You’ll get to study an eclectic array of texts and topics and to think across the period boundaries that restrict other courses. From the Victorian novel and Modernist poetics to early science fiction and postcolonial life writing, it’s possible to study almost any aspect of modern literature during this MA. You’ll be taught by one of the oldest English departments in the country and be perfectly located to explore the city’s rich literary history first-hand thanks to our unrivalled location in central London.
“A year after graduating with a Modern Literature and Culture MA from King’s, I began working as a Junior Reporter for a renewable energy publication. Being able to write clearly and concisely in the way I was taught during my MA has helped me every day when writing articles.”
