WRIT 197 SC - Special Topics in Writing


Courses under this number will vary from year to year, and will focus on a close analysis of a given genre (the essay, the short story, the poem, the newspaper article, the screenplay, the review) by an established practitioner of the form. May be repeated for credit. 

SP18 topic - Looking and Listening:  Our focus will be on refining our powers of observation to tell stories that reflect something true and particular. We will read selected texts (by, among others, Denis Johnson, Anne Carson, and Carson McCullers), work on short pieces of our own fiction, and embark on a few field outings.

 

Course Credit: 1.0
Offered: One semester per year
