This module enables you to continue to build on your academic skills, while beginning to study in a more specialised way. How are cultures produced and encountered, and why does it matter? These questions are examined in A112 through the key themes of place, power, literary ‘classics’, and journeys. You'll learn about contemporary cultures and relationships between cultures throughout history, discover how and why cultural identities emerge, and explore how they are expressed using words, objects, and images. After exploring a range of case studies from art history, classical studies, English literature, and creative writing, you'll investigate these themes with specific reference to your choice of one of these subject areas.
