Why Crossways in Cultural Narratives?

 

A common Master-theme

Ways of thought, of behaviour, of outlook, of student travel and study which cross boundaries between states, education systems, cultures; but also between collective identities, national culture-spheres, mindframes, value-sets and modes of thought….

The very fact of studying 'elsewhere', as you will quickly find out if you join the programme, raises acutely all these dimensions of human (cultural) difference; thus bringing into focus questions only half-understood before.

A common Interdisciplinarity

Among other boundaries crossed: those of subject discipline. This programme draws on insights, perspectives and methods borrowed from: literature, literary and film criticism, history, linguistics, semiotics, cultural studies, media studies, critical theory, philosophy.
