Major sequence
A major sequence in English consists of a minor sequence as outlined
above followed by twenty-four points of work at third-year level.
It is expected that students intending to major in English should choose
subjects which will provide them with:
- a familiarity with a range of literary genres across a broad historical
and cultural spectrum
- an understanding of contemporary and historical modes of literary and
critical theory
- an understanding of the nature and construction of the discipline,
including its historical and contemporary forms
Majoring students must
include among the five subjects which they take in second and third years at
least one earlier and one later-period subject (designated a and b in the lists
below).
