Students undertaking English and Film Studies at Queen’s explore literature, language and cinema in the widest possible sense. From the earliest writings in Anglo-Saxon to contemporary Irish, British, and ‘global’ literatures; from the origins of European cinema, via the French New Wave, to contemporary Hollywood and World Cinema, students study English and Film in their historical, cultural ideological circumstances and material manifestations. And modules on adaptation, visual culture and scriptwriting in both English and Film evidence the cross-pollination of these important cultural forms.
