Linear Algebra I
Linear maps on vector spaces are the basis for a large area of mathematics, in particular linear equations and linear differential equations, which form the basic language of the physical sciences.
This module restricts itself to the vector space R^n to build an intuitive understanding of the concepts of linear algebra and tools for calculations. We begin with the geometry of lines and planes in R^3 and R^n looking at the intuitive concept of vectors on the one hand, and with systems of linear equations on the other. This leads us to matrix algebra, and in particular the inversion of matrices.

Linear Algebra II
Building on the intuitive understanding and calculation techniques from Linear Algebra I, this module introduces the concepts of vector spaces and linear maps in an abstract, axiomatic way. In particular, matrices are revisited as the representation of a linear map in a specific basis. We furthermore introduce the concept of bases of vector spaces and study diagonalisation of linear maps.
We apply the abstract theory both in the context of Rn (as seen in Linear Algebra I) and in the context of function spaces; these are particularly important in the study of linear differential equations and hence for instance in physical sciences; for example we look at the derivative operator on the space of polynomial functions.

Literary Industries and New Media
The global industries shaping contemporary literary cultures are diverse, dynamic and rapidly changing. They incorporate children’s literature, graphic novels, plays and poetry, site-specific and experimental writing, popular genre fiction, as well as the canonical works of the heritage industry. This module will give you a critical understanding of these innovative industries and the skills needed to engage and develop them. It particularly focuses on literature’s digital revolution and the ways in which new media has radically transformed the meaning and processes of writing, publishing, editing, adapting, reading and reviewing. Issues to be examined on the module include the use of interactive writing platforms, the role of literary narrative in gaming, the adaptations of fiction into film, television, hypertexts and immersive experiences, the use of locative technologies in writing and reading. The module concludes with in-depth case studies that allow students to read literary texts through their complex cultural and economic contexts. These case-studies allow you to look at specific examples of the issues involved in the marketing, selling, copyrighting, adapting, translating, reading and interpreting of influential, often ground-breaking, cultural practices. -

Literary Transformations
Why have some stories gripped the imagination of writers, musicians, and artists across cultures and centuries? And what does the emergence and constant re-emergence of such stories tell us about ourselves and others, past and present? What do readers and audiences continually find compelling about these translations, adaptations and transformations? How do writers reshape the stories they retell to meet the needs of their own times. In this module, you will trace, analyse, theorise and compare the inventions and reinventions of a classic narrative across history and through genres, from poetry to novels, and from song to paintings and film. -
