ENG 155 - Reading Like a Writer: Fiction

The first requirement in becoming a writer is being a reader. An introductory exploration into the form and practice of fiction, focusing on the choices writers make in point of view, voice, style, characterization, setting and plot in both novels and short stories. Surveying both recognized and new works of technical merit from one or more of the historical movements in fiction – such as, but not limited to Romanticism, Naturalism, Realism, Modernism, Post-Modernism or Minimalism – students will be expected to engage in both analytical and creative responses in order to improve and hone their own fiction.
