MA American Literature since 1945 |
| Study a wide range of American fiction, poetry and drama from the second half of the twentieth century. A particularly innovative aspect of this MA is its focus on cultural difference, as seen, for example, in the option on ‘Ethnic American Literature and Cultural Memory’ which explores the writing of ‘ethnic’ and ‘minority’ groups. Other options are ‘Modern American Novels and Drama: an Introduction’, ‘Postmodern American Fiction’, and ‘The New Poetry and Prose’. |
