English Faculty

Relevant Links

The Faculty of English Language and Literature is by far the largest English Department in the UK, with over 75 permanent postholders, a further 70 Faculty members, 900 undergraduates and 300 postgraduates. The Faculty has a very distinguished research and teaching record, covering all periods of English Literature.

Oxford’s English Faculty is one of the most illustrious Schools of English in the world. Established in 1894, it has numbered among its members some of the most important critics and scholars in the field, including J.R.R. Tolkien, C.S. Lewis, Edmund Blunden, Nevill Coghill, Helen Gardner, Richard Ellmann, Terry Eagleton, and many others. We are now home to nearly eighty Professors, Readers, and Lecturers, with about the same number again of Tutors and Research Fellows based in Colleges. At any one time, there are roughly a thousand students studying within the Faculty at undergraduate level, and another three hundred at graduate level in the largest English graduate school in the country.

In the most recent Research Assessment Exercise we submitted 93 staff, 40 per cent of the research activity was ranked at the highest (4*) level - of a quality that is world-leading in terms of originality, significance and rigour. We have consistently been voted the top university for English by the prestigious Guardian University Guide, with a score of 100 per cent. Our teaching has been graded ‘Excellent’ in every Quality Assurance Exercise.

In 2012-13 the Faculty and the Faculty Library will be moving from its present base in the St Cross Building to become one of the first phase of faculties moving to the new Humanities site in the Radcliffe Observatory Quarter.

Traditionally teaching and research in the Faculty has covered the entire history of literature in English from the Anglo-Saxon period to the present day, along with language studies. More recent growth areas include world literature and film studies.
