In this course the student will explore the short story as a literary genre. Stories will range from the early masters such as Chekov, Kafka, and Hawthorne through contemporary offerings from Lessing, Mishima, and Achebe. Several critical approaches will be presented including formalism, New Historicism, and race/class/gender criticism. Students will keep a reading journal covering all material read for the course, and will be assessed on the basis of this journal, a mid-term and a final examination. Prerequisites: None.
