MA in 18th Century Studies: Postgraduate

The Foundling Museum and its collections support a new MA course offered by King's College London in partnership with the British Museum. Course leaders include scholars from eight departments in the School of Humanities and senior British

Museum staff.

 

The core module explores constructions of the Enlightenment, then and now, through frameworks such as race, gender, class, intellectual networks and material culture, and invites students to

analyse ideas, objects, texts and arts of the 18th century.
