Concordia University

Program Overview

Take your training as a literary scholar to the next level. Deepen your mastery of period- and area-specific archives as you develop the intensive disciplinary self-consciousness that propels the renewal of the field. You ll investigate the cultural categories of literature and the media, in both historical and contemporary contexts. Inspired by Concordia s rich culture of interdisciplinary collaboration and its location in a vibrant, bilingual city, you ll study literatures in English in the context of cross-disciplinary, cross-cultural, and cross-linguistic environments and exchanges. The program will be of special interest to those doctoral students with the desire and skills necessary to work across discourses, media, or literary languages and/or traditions.
