latin, classical civ and... what?
ancient history is the third I have, since it's most suitable to a classics-centered study, but...
I find I don't keep up with it as easily. could this be for lack of enjoyment? but I keep thinking of english literature, how it is such a valuable a level to have, and so highly-esteemed...
would it be wiser to discard ancient history in favour of english literature, purely for advantage when it comes to university?
I find english literature... okay. I love to read, I love to analyse, but I find my heels go in when it's a piece I don't enjoy. and I've glanced through the spec for both ocr and aqa and I find ocr the more merciful. still, I'm not sure. there is a part of me loves english literature and a part that truly hates it.
what would you advise? I'm self-studying, so it's all the same to me, but I do feel that, from what I've heard from others, english literature is a unique field of study that teaches you to appreciate literature in a way that you wouldn't be able to otherwise. and I do love literature (just, as I've said, literature that is to my own liking, which makes it difficult for me at times to settle with something I don't enjoy)...
I would appreciate any input, any pointers, anything at all. if you've studied either or, tell me, do you feel it's essential on a personal or academic level? would it better replace ancient history? or shall I stick with the three I have?
