A course reader will be made available for purchase, with additional reading accessible on bCourses.
This course will be a survey of the short story from the 19th century to the present: its historical and cultural contexts, its formal and stylistic properties. We'll consider the short story's predecessors, the work of its major practitioners, and the role of the literary magazine and the university in its development. We'll read stories in a variety of genres and from a variety of cultures as we explore the particularities and pleasures of the form. Our approach will be both creative and critical: students will write and workshop a short story, as well as write two analytic papers.
