The Religion and Literature programme draws on the strengths of one of the most distinguished centres of religious and theological studies in the country. It offers deep and broad study of the relationship between all genres of literature and religious traditions, history, thought and practice. It will equip you to engage in this growing field from a variety of starting points and to understand the interaction between literature and religion from a range of wider contexts, including those of theology and the textual, historical and social scientific study of religions. This programme is aimed at students and professionals with an academic background in literary studies and/or religious studies or theology who are keen to acquire a more in-depth knowledge of both disciplines in dialogue. The programme offers you the opportunity to study and collaborate with established academics in the interdisciplinary field, with a view to tailoring a personalised path to doctoral study or to other relevant careers.
