【授業の概要と目的(何を学ぶか) / Outline and objectives】
This seminar is for students interested in literature, literary research, and composition. How do authors approach the composition of a text? How does a text change through the revision process? How does the act of writing transform how we read literature? In this seminar, students will put their research from the spring into practice by creating their own pieces of short fiction.

【到達目標 / Goal】
Over the course of this seminar, students will:
(1) develop advanced close reading skills
(2) practice planning, composing, revising, and workshopping prose fiction
(3) develop the ability to discuss prose fiction in multiple technical and theoretical contexts
