Comparative Literature - MA | Master's degree | Humanities & Culture | On Campus | One year full-time, two years part-time | University of Kent | United Kingdom

Comparative Literature at Kent offers an excellent environment for the postgraduate study of literature beyond national and linguistic borders. The program involves the study of literature from two or more national and linguistic traditions, allowing you to gain an intercultural and transnational understanding of diverse cultural and literary practices. The MA program explores three main areas: themes, genres, movements and major literary figures; the interactions and exchanges between national literary traditions; and the theory and practice of comparative literature. These complementary strands encourage comparative analysis in a variety of contexts, ranging from the study of national literatures to the exploration of different genres, periods, media and literary theory.
