Deze interdisciplinaire onderzoeksmaster biedt het beste van kunst, literatuur en media in een programma vol welontworpen vakken, waarin theoretische en historische vakken worden gecombineerd met vrije ruimte voor specialisatie.
In the medieval and early modern line, art and literature work through media. Here, medium is the means by which art and literature are made (such as the medium of language, print, theatre, paint, etching, andsoforth).
In the contemporary line, from the 19th century until the present, art and literature get accompanied by media such as cinema, games, or social media.
Your research connects to the medieval/early modern line or the contemporary line. In both you take two obligatory thematic courses that combine interdisciplinary and historically marked research with medium-specificity. Because you have also taken the two collective courses, this leaves you with more than half of the programme as a matter of choice. You need to select two courses provided by the national research schools which organise specific fields of research: medieval studies, art history, literary studies, media studies, cultural analysis. Finally, three courses that are specific to your research and can be chosen from the Leiden master programme or other universities.
