FY-017 Place, Memory & Identity in Literature, Film and Art

Strongly linked with constructions of personal and national identity, place plays a crucial role in film and literature, as well as in visual art. Place serves as a locus of personal and collective memory, in and through which historical traumas are enacted, inscribed, and commemorated. Yet particularly the natural world and rural spaces also seem to function as sources of refuge, (nostalgic) escapism, and resistance to socio-political conflicts and the pressures of modernity more generally. Through the study of a selection of European films and a range of poems and prose fiction (as well as some visual artworks), this module explores the memory politics involved in representations of place and of movement between places. Students will reflect on how place is employed to mediate and `work through¿ different forms of trauma and how it promotes a sense of belonging and/or exclusion from the human community. We also explore the loss of identity via tropes of `placelessness¿. Particular attention will be paid to characters¿ connections to the land, and to how the natural world and its devastating exploitation impact interpersonal, inter-community, and human-nonhuman relations.
MS-310 Dissertation Preparation

This module introduces the practice of dissertation writing and research approaches for the study of media forms. texts and systems and their contribution to social life. It begins to explore the breadth of media studies through attention to the ways in which media matter. In what ways, and how significant are the media in the formation of individual identities and in the practices of everyday life? In the more public world, to what extent are media key to providing knowledge and enabling the debate necessary to the practices of democracy? The course enables students to build on their own experiences of media as consumers and users. But it also encourages critical attention to how the field of media studies has historically been forged: through argument and contestation between different academic approaches and disciplines.
MS-311 Dissertation

This dissertation enables students to engage in long term, in-depth research on a topic of their choice subject to the approval of the Department.
MS-332 Drama and Documentary on Screen

This module offers students the chance to learn about the history and development of film and television's two most important genres - drama and documentary. The work of the two genres' main pioneers will be analysed, individuals such as Robert Flaherty, John Grierson, Dennis Potter and Jimmy McGovern, and attention given to their contribution in the development of relevant forms. There will also be a chance to consider new aspects and how the two genres have adapted, combined and developed over the years to ensure their survival as interesting and popular forms.
MS-M10 Dissertation or Project

An innovative practice-based alternative to a Masters dissertation. Students are encouraged to develop projects across more than one area of media practice and to do so with dual supervision that embraces both theory and practice. Work produced should be at a professional level, accompanied by a reflective essay and presentation exploring the contextual, theoretical and practical issues raised by the project.
MS-M11 MA Project and Dissertation Preparation

This core module comprehensively prepares students for their Master¿s project or dissertation, which is an integral part of the requirements for the degree. It incorporates several key themes and issues across the communications, media practice and PR industries. It is a challenging, and stimulating module ¿ both for professional practitioners and those new to communications and media practice. The module encourages students to unite theory and practice in productive ways. It introduces students to a number of important research and project management methods essential for undertaking a successful project or dissertation.
MSS202 The History of Screen Animation

Through close analysis of screen texts, this module will examine the historical, technical and theoretical aspects of international animation. A form long dismissed as children's entertainment, the module will assess the impact of screen animation as art and as a recognised global form of expression.
