We offer flexible modes of study for students with personal or professional commitments.
The course has three pathways, each of which explores a particular field with a distinctive thematic and methodological focus. Your lecturers have expertise across cultural, social and political history, cultural, literary, film and visual studies, and the history of ideas – and we take an interdisciplinary approach. Topics range from oral history and digital media to the contested memorial landscape and struggles for social justice. Our programme will equip you with the analytical, critical and practical skills needed to make new historical accounts and representations, and to investigate a variety of cultural forms and practices in a global context.
On this MA you will examine how cultural constructions of history and memory are fundamental forces in shaping contemporary life.
