This is a joint honours course, where you study English Literature alongside History of Art. The course offers the opportunity to study an exciting range of modules, blending the study of classic texts and literary traditions with current theoretical models for understanding literature as a dynamic, global phenomenon. You will also be able to combine artistic creativity with a wide range of academic skills. You will acquire a broad knowledge of Western art between the 15th and 20th centuries as well as more detailed knowledge of specific periods. Our course is renowned for its inspirational teaching and research excellence. In the 2013 National Student Survey (Source: Unistats), 93 per cent of students agreed that staff had made the subject interesting. Oxford is a great place to study history of art, with famous museums, beautiful buildings and easy access to exhibitions in London.
