We investigate a remarkably wide array of subjects: spanning Victorian novels to postcolonial studies, and contemporary poetry to modern fiction. Beyond English literature, our department specializes in South African, Asian, American, Irish, and European works. We also examine connections between literature and film. Our faculty and graduate researchers represent diverse global backgrounds.
