ENGLISH AND WORLD<br />
LITERATURES MAJOR<br />
(BA)<br />
Two concentrations:<br />
WORLD LITERATURE CONCENTRATION<br />
The World Literature concentration at <strong>MMC</strong> goes beyond<br />
the usual reading lists with its global, cross-cultural<br />
approach. Develop superior critical reading <strong>and</strong> writing<br />
skills as you analyze, interpret, discuss, <strong>and</strong> debate the<br />
meaning of compelling texts, classic <strong>and</strong> contemporary.<br />
Hone the crafts of research <strong>and</strong> teaching while working in<br />
partnership with faculty mentors.<br />
LITERATURE AND MEDIA<br />
CONCENTRATION Within the Literature <strong>and</strong> Media<br />
concentration, the classic inspires the cutting edge; text<br />
transforms into contemporary media. This is WLL’s home<br />
for budding filmmakers, video documentarians, longform<br />
journalists, fan fiction writers, <strong>and</strong> social media<br />
practitioners who bring literary sensibilities to their<br />
work. Produce <strong>and</strong> contribute to <strong>MMC</strong>’s online student<br />
magazine TwoTwoOne (twotwoone.nyc).<br />
