In this course students encounter works of literary fiction of varying kinds and from a wide range of periods and contexts. Students explore both the beginnings of, and key developments in, narrative prose. Building on issues explored in Concepts in Literary Studies, the course aims to enhance students' abilities to think critically about stories and storytelling and to analyze works of fiction in terms of (for example) language, themes, structure, characters, plot, setting, and narrative technique.
