• Cambridge is a superb place to study for a PhD in early modern literature. A large and lively faculty with a wide range of interests means that one can consider and support research proposals in a very wide range of aspects of the field.
  • This period is central to the life of the Faculty also because almost all our undergraduates take papers on "English Literature and its Contexts, 1500–1700" and on Shakespeare. Some go on to further early modern options in their final year. This means there are good opportunities for postgraduate students to get involved in teaching.
