Course Description
This course examines language, discourse, and communication across different contexts within medicine, illness, and health. It explores some of the dominant policy and media discourses of health, focusing on issues such as mental health, relationships of power between patients and health professionals, the framing of personal risk and responsibility in health promotion, and the representations of emerging diseases. Students examine the discursive negotiation of personal experiences of health problems, for example through narrative reconstructions of illness experiences, positioning of "sick" and "healthy" people, doctor-patient interactions, and the use of online forums for advice and support. The course covers a range of approaches and methods that are used in health discourse analysis, such as illness narratives, discursive psychology, conversation analysis, discourse metaphors, and critical discourse analysis.

Course Description
This course examines plays written and performed in the reign of James I (1603-1625). Students look at a selection of vibrant Jacobean plays in their textual, theatrical, and cultural contexts, focusing on cultural issues from revenge to gender, from colonialism to sexuality, from witchcraft to the urban, and from Protestantism to the representation of Islam. Students examine how culture was performed in Jacobean England – that is, the ways in which Jacobean culture was both represented and created on the stage. The focus of the course is on the dramatic response to, and construction of, an urban, patriarchal society of achievement and unease, configuring Jacobean dramatic culture as a dialogue between opportunity and oppression, empowerment and enclosure, and discovery and displacement.
