English Literature taster lecture: LOL, literature and laughter

What's it like to study literature at university, on its own or combined with another subject? This session takes the theme of literature and laughter to give you an insight into the kind of seminar session you might find yourself taking part in. Dr Nola Merckel and some of our current students invite you to come and think about how comedy works on the page and stage. What's funny, and why? No advance reading needed. Suitable for students interested in literature, creative writing, drama and philosophy.

Tuesday 20 April, 16.30-17.30
