BA Drama and English
Students undertaking Drama and English at Queen’s explore theatre, performance, literature and language in the widest possible sense: from ancient Greece to Renaissance England; the Irish Literary Revival to Postmodern America; from the earliest writings in Anglo-Saxon to contemporary Irish, British, and ‘global’ literatures. Our language modules explore the history, structure, and function of English; its day-to-day usage, including in the media; and the major influences that have shaped its development. Our creative writing modules allow students on that programme to specialise in prose fiction, poetry, and scriptwriting.
