ENGE541

This course explores the historical and structural development of the short story as well as major practitioners of the craft. While the formalist approach will predominate with a close reading on the text for emphasis on structure, other approaches will be explored. Where appropriate, regional or historical approaches will be considered, as well as gender and class. The course examines the characteristic elements of fiction and some of the changing ways in which fiction relates to reality.
