Intermediality

Each semester, we host a series of workshops, talks, film screenings, and/or interviews with artists, writers and other art practitioners.

Our intermediality events are conducted in close connection with the MSc programme ‘Intermediality: Literature, Film and the Arts in Dialogue’ which was launched in September 2021.

Some of these events are organised jointly with Meiji University in Tokyo as part of our Research Partnership in Intermedia Studies, with academic workshops and impact projects held alternatingly in Edinburgh and Tokyo.

Are you interested in studying Intermediality?

As the first UNESCO World City of Literature, home of the Edinburgh International Festival and a major cultural hub, Edinburgh is the ideal place for the study of intermediality. Our one-year taught masters programme draws on world-class teaching and research expertise across media, from literature to film, music, painting, photography and visual culture more widely. 

The programme will make you conversant with intermedial theory and equip you with the critical tools and historical background for understanding and analysing a wide range of intermedial phenomena across different periods and cultures. It can also be completed part-time over two years.
