Samuel Beckett: Archive, Text and Performance

This degree will enable you to engage in advanced archival research techniques related specifically to the extensive holdings of the University’s Beckett Archive, and to relate those techniques to discussion of Beckett’s writing and its contexts.

You will also have the opportunity to explore the complex and sophisticated relationship between Beckett’s multimedia work in film, theatre, television and radio. The course’s modular structure is designed so that if you wish to take a more literary approach (such as Beckett’s work in the novel and poetry) you can do so; the degree’s flexibility also provides opportunities if you wish to practically engage in research concerning Beckett’s work in multimedia.

Modules include:

• Multimedia Beckett
• Beckett and the Archive
• Beckett Practical Workshops in Film, Theatre and Television
• Beckett and Modernism
• Beckett and Contemporary Performance

Requirements

• IELTS: 6.5 overall with no element less than 5.5 (or equivalent).
