American Studies Research Group, Leeds

Description

The American Studies Research Group brings together researchers from a wide range of different specialisms who are united by an interest in American literature and culture. Group members engage in both individual and collaborative research that is notable for its breadth and interdisciplinarity.

The University of Leeds first appointed a chair devoted to American Literature in 1961, and has maintained a first research base in the field ever since. The group's current research areas range chronologically from the seventeenth century to the present day, and encompass many objects of study including novels, plays, films, poetry and television.
