word order

Hi! I want to know if this sentence is grammatically correct and if both sentences are possible. English is my second language:
you cultivated in me the passion for the English literature
or
you cultivated the passion for the English literature in me
Which one is correct?
thanks

Both are almost right.

MOST right would be:

You cultivated in me the passion for English literature.

lrivero83 agrees: I think his answer is accurate because of the heavy noun shift
