DESCRIPTION English Literature Diploma  Introducing the English Literature Diploma, an expertly curated course designed to provide an extensive and comprehensive exploration of the fascinating world of English literature. This diploma offers a unique opportunity to delve into the captivating literary works and movements that have shaped the English-speaking world throughout history.  The course covers a wide range of literary periods, beginning with the Renaissance Period, when great minds such as Shakespeare, Marlowe, and Spenser flourished, bringing their timeless works to the forefront of the literary scene. As students progress through the English Literature Diploma, they will encounter the Age of Enlightenment, a time of intellectual and philosophical breakthroughs that challenged existing norms and paved the way for the development of modern society.  Students will then embark on a journey through the Romantic Movement, a period known for its embrace of imagination, emotion, and individualism. Here, they will study the works of Wordsworth, Coleridge, Keats, and many others, as they learn how these writers captured the spirit of their time through poetry and prose.  The Victorian Era, a time of rapid industrialisation and social change, will be the next focus of the English Literature Diploma. Students will examine the works of authors such as Dickens, the Brontë sisters, and George Eliot, gaining insight into how these literary giants depicted the joys, sorrows, and complexities of their age.  The course continues with an exploration of Modernism, a movement that sought to redefine literature and art by breaking away from traditional forms and experimenting with new styles and techniques. Students will study the ground-breaking works of writers like Virginia Woolf, James Joyce, and T.S. Eliot, as they revolutionised the literary landscape.  Postmodernism will be the next topic of study, a period that questioned the very nature of reality and embraced a sense of playfulness, irony, and intertextuality. The English Literature Diploma will guide students through the works of postmodern writers such as Samuel Beckett, Thomas Pynchon, and Angela Carter, who challenged conventional storytelling and pushed the boundaries of narrative form.  The course also incorporates a study of the Harlem Renaissance, an important cultural movement that celebrated the creative achievements of African American artists, writers, and musicians. Students will learn about the works of Langston Hughes, Zora Neale Hurston, and Countee Cullen, as they examine the ways in which these writers influenced the broader literary landscape.  A key component of the English Literature Diploma is its focus on Contemporary British Literature. Students will explore the works of authors such as Salman Rushdie, Ian McEwan, and Zadie Smith, who have contributed to the richness and diversity of the modern literary canon.  Furthermore, the course provides a comprehensive overview of American Literature, examining the works of authors from the colonial period to the present day. Students will explore the writings of Edgar Allan Poe, Mark Twain, F. Scott Fitzgerald, and many more, as they learn about the unique qualities and historical context that shaped American literary culture.  Lastly, the English Literature Diploma places a strong emphasis on the study of Women Writers, recognising the significant contributions of female authors throughout history. Students will explore the works of trailblazers such as Jane Austen, Mary Shelley, and Sylvia Plath, as well as contemporary writers like Margaret Atwood and Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie.  In conclusion, the English Literature Diploma offers a comprehensive and engaging overview of the literary world, providing students with the skills and knowledge needed to appreciate, analyse, and enjoy the rich tapestry of English literature.
