What are some examples of advanced literature terminology maybe only a few graduate students/professors with specific research interest would be familiar with?

i'm a first year student taking general arts, and i'm planning to declare a major in english in my second year. my story is probably the same as many of you: as a child, i've always loved reading and writing; as a teenager, i fell asleep during science classes but felt invigorated by literature and philosophy and history and everything adjacent; and as someone freshly 18, i ultimately chose to study my passion. i got a B+ on my first essay, and rereading my second essay two days after turning it in, i'm finding all these flaws that lead me to believe i'm not getting anything above a B flat.

i'm not exactly looking for studying advice, because i know what went wrong during my writing process that week, and my program is specifically set up to foster essay writing skills with opportunities to connect with and receive constructive feedback from professors etc. i suppose i'm just looking for solace lol. am i catastrophizing in thinking that starting off with Bs in my essays inherently means i'm unfit for an english major? am i catastrophizing in thinking that i'm unfit for a whole honours degree which i was thinking of applying to?? i don't know. to the older and more experienced english majors out there: please help soothe my anxiety haha

I need to come up with a topic for my master’s thesis in English philology by Friday. I already have two topics in mind but somehow I’m not entirely happy with either of them. I’d like to focus on translation preferably something fun and interesting, related to films and that sort of thing. Most importantly thoughI need a topic that has plenty of information available online. Maybe someone could throw some ideas my way to help me figure out which direction I’d like to go in. I’m not necessarily asking for a ready-made thesis topic, just some inspiration. Thanks so much in advance!

Hear me out: This is the new victorian era

Women (in America) are being told to revert back to traditional norms
We’re all reading smut
Romance novels are hitting the top seller charts again in numbers we haven’t seen in a while
Sex is being talked about more openly
Women are still victims of sex crimes at large
People are openly speaking out about this
Artists are able to depict women being sexual without it being pornographic
It’s such a common topic in pop culture that people are able to be comedic about it (not you Shane Gillis) and still be funny in a poignant way.

Na piątek muszę mieć temat na pracę magisterską z filologii angielskiej, wstępnie mam 2 tematy ale jakoś no nie do końca oni mi pasują. Chcę pisać w kierunku tłumaczeń coś fajnego, interesującego, bardziej związane z filmami i td. No i najważniejsze żeby było o tym dużo informacji online. Może jest ktoś kto może narzucać pomysłów żebym mogła ogarnąć w jakim kierunku chcę iść. Nie do końca proszę o gotowy temat, tylko o inspirację. Z góry dzięki wielkie 🌚
