Students pursuing English and History degrees at Queen's examine literature, language, and historical studies in their broadest contexts. The curriculum spans from ancient Anglo-Saxon texts to modern Irish, British, and world literatures, alongside historical studies ranging from classical Greece and Rome to contemporary Irish, European, American, and Asian history. The English program investigates linguistic, historical, and ideological contexts, while History offers specialized modules covering gender studies, sociocultural history, colonial studies, political developments, and religious/economic transformations.
