Overview
We offer a degree in Comparative Literature at Western University - Canada. What distinguishes it from similar programs across the country (Toronto, Alberta, Montreal...) is the insistent focus on critical theory, postcolonial literature, East-West cultural relationships and inter-media studies (particularly visual art and film).
Features
- Many of those teaching in the program are well established scholars of Medieval, Renaissance, Baroque and 18-20th-century cultures.
- While our Ph.D. candidates are usually employed as Teaching Assistants, some of them may be asked to offer courses of their own design in Western’s undergraduate Comparative Literature and Culture program.
