Computational Modelling for All

Course Description:

This course is a study of the basic tools required to examine processes that occur in the real world and write code to simulate that occurrence. We will be using the processing programming environment to create visual models that provide us with a ‘laboratory’ where we can conduct experiments which would be impossible or too expensive to do in real life. We also learn how the basis of data analytics, and how to share data using standard popular notations and produce effective visualisations of data.

Journalism 1 (News Writing)

Course Description:

This course is designed to teach you the core skills of journalistic practice and behaviour while broadening your social and political horizons. Students with a curiosity for the world beyond their own lives will be rewarded as we get to grips with current affairs and politics on the news agenda. You don't have to be interested in Journalism as a possible future career to benefit from this module. The core writing skills you will have the chance to develop - of concision, precision and fluency, and of the ability to assimilate and then express complex ideas in simple engaging language - are ones that can help in any number of possible work environments. The core mission of this module is to leave students with the skill to write a news story and news feature.

Course Description:

This module will introduce you to some of the most interesting forms of contemporary journalism - which also happen to be some of the forms of journalism that are most open and accessible to people entering the profession for the first time. It is easier to pitch a review or a feature - and to get established in these forms - than a news story. The module will introduce students to the issues and considerations involved in writing reviews, criticism and features, with the aim of developing your critical faculties and your ability to write critically and entertainingly on a range of subjects. Students will study readings drawn from a variety of both popular and scholarly critics and journalists and practice writing and workshopping your own pieces. Students will consider how blogging and podcasting interact with more traditional forms of journalism.

20th Century Literature

Course Description:

This module concentrates on the various foci and discrete schools of literature across the twentieth century in the wake of Modernism. Responding to such historical, ideological, and social crises as the end of empire, the “death” of God, and the increased sense of isolation and alienation, the literature of this period develops new strategies with which to communicate the human condition. A range of representative literary texts will be used to illustrate this. In addition – and to support our readings of these texts – the module will introduce students to a wide range of contemporary critical theories and approaches, such as Post-Modernism, Absurdism, and Magical Realism.

Gender and Identity in the Victorian Novel

Course Description:

On this course we begin by reading Emily Brontë’s Wuthering Heights, a novel as challenging as its sister text Jane Eyre. In reading the five novels on the course we will consider the different methods of storytelling of writers like Emily Brontë, Charles Dickens and George Eliot, concentrating especially upon the different ways in which women are represented. The aim of the course is to consider how each writer engages with key Victorian issues such as marriage, the construction of the domestic sphere and the representation of class. We will also think about the fact that many of these writers were able to offer such debate whilst also feeding an eager Victorian public the melodrama they wanted to consume.

Introduction to Critical Theory

Course Description:

The module introduces critical theory and its application to the reading of literary texts. Beginning with classical descriptions of form and unity, the module traces the major developments in critical theory to the present day. Topics covered will include: colonialism / post-colonialism; feminism / post-feminism; formalism; liberal humanism; Marxism; modernism; narratology; new-historicism; post-modernism; psychoanalysis; structuralism / post- structuralism; queer theory. Theories will be introduced historically, with attention to the relationship between theory and cultural context designed to enable students to recognise the essentially ideological nature of theory. By extension, while the nature of the syllabus implies, to a certain extent, the division of theory into discrete schools of thought, the module, following recent interventions by the likes of Agnes Heller and Carlos Escudé, will also seek to examine the wider questions about authority, creativity and culture posed by the concept of theory. Theoretical praxis will be illustrated with reference to two novels, one from the nineteenth century and one from the twentieth.

Irish Literature 1870-1952

Course Description:

The content of the unit will be drawn from works by Yeats, Joyce, Synge, O’Casey, Kavanagh and Kate O’Brien; and will cover three major genres of literature: fiction, drama and poetry. The study of this body of literature will be contextualised historically and politically, and also in terms of the theoretical issues surrounding colonial and post-colonial literary nationalism. We will begin by considering the impact of nationalism on Irish literary production in the early part of the century. We shall look at mythology and national identity. Other themes include the role of language in shaping of identity and representation of gender across this period.
