Amcanion cyffredinol

This module aims to enhance the options available on the MA in English Literature ranging in focus from the Elizabethan to the Regency periods. MA students taking this wide-ranging and challenging module will have the opportunity to explore the ways in which prose fiction emerged as a dominant genre over a two-hundred year period. In addition, there is ample opportunity throughout to explore scholarly accounts of the studied works and to reflect upon the ways in which the art of fiction has been theorised down the generations by critics interested in genre, gender, narratology and social critique. The module begins by focusing on tales from popular culture circulating in the final decade of Elizabeth I's reign and then goes onto review the emergence of pastoral romances, rogue biographies, epistolary novels, picaresque and gothic narratives and concludes with historical fiction and novels of courtship penned by Scott and Austen at the beginning of the nineteenth century.

Cynnwys cwrs

Over eleven seminars, this module offers the opportunity to study critical discussions of the art of fiction as well as performing close readings of a new prose narrative each week. The first half of the module will explore examples of fiction in the period 1580-1720 composed by writers such as Deloney, Nashe, Wroth, Behn, Defoe, Congreve and Heywood. In the middle of the module, the group will have the opportunity to study a major work of fiction from the eighteenth century, such as Fielding's Tom Jones, Sterne's Tristram Shandy or Richardson's Clarissa. In the second half of the module, we turn our attention to later developments in the art of fiction exemplified in the comic writing of Smollett, the gothic novels of Radcliffe, the nation-building historical fictions of Scott, and the rise of the novel of courtship with figures such as Burney or Austen. Assessment will comprise: a) a recorded 15-minute powerpoint presentation and b) a 4,000-word essay. Both of these exercises will be tightly linked to the critical and textual materials covered during the module and will be evaluated as critical enquiries conducted by students at an advanced level in English studies.
