Admissions T: +44 (0)1227 827272 www.kent.ac.uk/pg 111 Dickens and Victorian Culture MA www.kent.ac.uk/pg/219 Location: Canterbury As the only named Master’s programme within the UK devoted to Charles Dickens, this programme studies the author in a place that perhaps offers more Dickensian associations than anywhere else in the world. It combines a focus on both the local and the global author through compulsory modules, contextualising the variety of ways in which Dickens engaged with the social, cultural and political issues of his age. Interdisciplinary approaches are employed, using Dickens as a focus, to consider the relationships between 19th-century fiction and journalism, the Victorians’ engagement with material culture, and their fascination with the body and its metaphors. Course content • Compulsory modules (two from): Dickens and the Condition of England; Dickens and the Material Culture of the Victorian Novel; Dickens, the Victorians and the Body • Other modules may include: Extremes of Feeling; Victorian Sustainability. Additional wild modules may also be available. • Dissertation Eighteenth-Century Studies MA www.kent.ac.uk/pg/220 www.kent.ac.uk/pg/221 Taught jointly with: School of European Culture and Languages Locations: Canterbury; Canterbury and Paris It is possible to study this programme either entirely in Canterbury or split between Canterbury and our Paris School of Arts and Culture. This interdisciplinary MA offers an intellectually dynamic introduction to one of the most exciting eras in literary history. Grounded in and administered from the Centre for Studies in the Long Eighteenth Century, it builds upon the expertise and common research interests of 18th-century researchers and academics across the Faculty of Humanities. If you are on the split-site Canterbury and Paris programme, you spend your first term in Canterbury, relocating to Paris for the spring term, studying in the heart of historic Montparnasse, where you take Paris-focused modules. For further information about the Paris School of Arts and Culture, please see p257. Course content • Compulsory modules: Hacks, Dunces and Scribblers; Jane Austen and Material Culture • Recommended modules may include: Extremes of Feeling; From Caxton to Kindle.

This programme allows you to choose from the full range of our MA literature modules. The list of what is on offer is regularly added to by academics keen to explore new areas of thinking with students and to draw you in to our established areas of research strength, such as postcolonial studies, 18th-century studies, modern poetry and fiction, or Victorian studies. The modules draw on different critical approaches and focus on a range of historical periods, ideas and places from modern India to post-war New York to literary London in the 18th century. If you are on the split-site Canterbury and Paris programme, you spend your first term in Canterbury, moving to our Paris School of Arts and Culture for the spring term. Our centre in Paris is based in the heart of historic Montparnasse, an area that has inspired many of the greatest authors. Those on the year-long Paris programme take modules from their own subject area alongside optional modules inspired by Paris and its unique cultural history. For further information about the Paris School of Arts and Culture, please see p257. Course content Canterbury students choose from modules which may include: • American Modernism; Centres and Edges; Colonial and Postcolonial Discourses; Extremes of Feeling; From “Having become familiar with the excellent academic staff and resources available at Kent, I wanted to continue my postgraduate studies in an environment that was established in its academic accomplishment, welcomed innovative ideas and was open to new projects.” Claire Hurley PhD English
