Welcome to the M. Phil in Literary Translation website
Course Options
Students select options, assessed by essay (30%). Although these are listed as ‘non-core’ items, this is only because they are not taken by all students together. However, they constitute an important element of assessment. According to local arrangements, students will either choose ONE full-year option or TWO half-year options as outlined on the following pages.
Up to 4 hours weekly over two terms will be spent in optional courses which will be selected from a number of one-term and two-term options. A student might apply to take a language module or engage in language study instead of one option. In order to facilitate potential exchange or independent travel abroad, no classes are scheduled for Trinity Term. Students spending this period elsewhere are expected to remain in e-mail contact with their dissertation supervisors.
*Please consult the School Handbook 2011/2012 for a full listing of all options & Please see the list of options listed below.
