Cíle předmětu
The course will look at a selection of short stories by writers from the British Isles, focusing mainly on writers from the earlier part of the twentieth century and contemporary authors. The aim will be to explore and compare the formal elements of the stories and relate them to the experiential areas with which they engage. This will involve a brief exposure to elements of narrative theory.By the end of the course the student will have written an essay in which they demonstrate their ability to analyze aspects of the short fiction discussed in terms of relating form to content in the ways covered in the course.During the course students will be expected to discuss ways in which formal elements of the stories discussed deviate from traditional norms and the way in which these formal innovations impinge upon the authors' concern with their subject matter.Students will also be expected to gain the skill of going beyond discussing characters as if they were simply depictions of people and the notion of writers depicting a ready-made world by attempting to think of the way in which an author's narrative organizes events and the precise role which character functions play in a given story.
Výstupy z učení
Students completing the course will have been exposed to a range of primarily twentieth short fiction and have discussed and analysed specific elements in terms of not only the content but also the narrative presentation of some of the stories considered. In this way they will have gained a better knowledge of specific and highly sophisticated forms of verbal/written presentation and the kinds of strategies involved in such presentations.
