Module description
This module puts comparative literature into practice. Over the course of the module, we study three core themes - gender and sexuality, the environment, and migration – through a selection of extracts from texts from around the world, from the ancient to the contemporary. You will develop intercultural understanding and appreciation of the factors that shape the similarities and differences in cultural expressions over time and across borders. You will also develop ‘translation literacy’, an understanding of the factors that shape the production and circulation of translated texts.
