History and English
Why Choose Pembroke?
We have a strong reputation in history joint schools, and are the largest College for History and English with an excellent scholarly community - a fact that is reflected in the great deal of choice offered to students when it comes to selecting your specific areas of interest.
The Senior History Tutors are Stephen Tuck, an expert on the history of America, and Adrian Gregory, a specialist in WWI history and the writing of historical memory. Our Tutorial Fellows in English are Professor Lynda Mugglestone, whose expertise centres on the social and cultural history of English (and its representation), and Dr Ushashi Dasgupta, whose research interests include nineteenth-century fiction and the relationship between literature and place. These main tutors are supported by a team of other lecturers, each with their own specialities and research interests.
Looking for single honours courses?
This course can also be taken as a single honours course.
Have you considered our other joint courses?
Both of these disciplines form part of several joint honours courses, including History and Modern Languages, History and Economics, History and Politics and English and Modern Languages.
