Letter from the Chair
From the leafy, historic Bronx Rose Hill campus to the heart of New York City's cultural scene at Lincoln Center, English at Fordham is a central part of the University's intellectual life, with an undergraduate major and minors and graduate degree programs including the literature M.A., M.A. with a writing concentration, and a fully funded Ph.D. The Department offers courses in composition, writing, literature (up to the advanced doctoral level), dissertation workshops, graduate teaching preparation, and a pedagogy practicum. Our core faculty is comprised of over 40 full-time members who are productive scholars in fields from Anglo-Saxon and Anglo-Norman to Postcolonial and Postmodern literature and theories; in addition, the full-time faculty is regularly complemented by specialist writers-in-residence and visiting professors.

The English Department sponsors and takes part in a number of co-curricular events, interdisciplinary initiatives, and colloquiae throughout the year and fosters a growing creative writing community. We welcome your interest in English at Fordham.

Best,

Erler's volume is the first of five projected on London's dramatic records, and it gives  the financial and festive evidence for playing
in London parishes and at 
St. Paul's cathedral.
