University of Hull

English at Hull is friendly, inclusive and supportive, and characterised by the internationally excellent research that informs our postgraduate degree supervision. Our academic staff have expertise in all literary periods, from Early Modern to 21st century literature. We have renowned expertise in medieval literature and medievalism, Shakespeare and Renaissance drama, early modern literature and politics, 19th-century studies (particularly the novel and the visual arts), modern and contemporary literature (particularly poetry and fiction), genre fiction (gothic, crime and science fiction), and creative writing. Research is strongly interdisciplinary and enhanced by the research networks of its centre including the Larkin Centre for Poetry and Creative Writing. Training in subject-specific research skills and methodologies is provided by the department, on top of the University’s Postgraduate Training Scheme.
