Discover how early twentieth-century writers revolutionised the novel by turning inward to explore consciousness, memory and perception rather than external plot alone.
You will understand how twentieth-century British writers responded to the collapse of empire, global conflict and social upheaval, and how historical and postcolonial criticism reveal the ideological assumptions in canonical texts.
Understand how literary canons are formed, how historical and social contexts shape meaning, and how different critical traditions help readers interpret texts with rigour and awareness.
