Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

This course will focus on famous short story masterpieces which have received a lot of critical attention and been given divergent interpretations. In the discussions in class, we will analyse the ways in which the authors achieve their effects and invite contradictory responses. We will interpret a variety of texts ranging from the beginnings of the short story to modernism and beyond. Many of these stories have been accepted into the canon of English and American literature. The authors discussed will include E.A. Poe, Nathaniel Hawthorne, Charlotte Gilman-Perkins, Catherine Mansfield and James Joyce.
