BA (Hons) English and French

Students undertaking English and French at Queen’s explore Anglo- and Francophone literatures and language in the widest possible sense. From the earliest writings in Anglo-Saxon to contemporary Irish, British, French and postcolonial literatures, students study English and French texts in their historical, cultural and ideological circumstances and material manifestations. Language modules in English and French explore language structure and function; the day-to-day use of the languages, including in the media; and the major influences that have shaped both linguistic traditions.
