CRWR 243 - Creative Non-Fiction Writing


Semester Hours: 3
Periodically
A graduate-level course in the writing of memoir, personal essay and belletristic prose involving researched topics. In addition to writing their own pieces and discussing them with the instructor and other class members, students read and discuss exemplary historical models of creative (i.e., literary) non-fiction. They also study formal questions such as the construction of the I-character, the insinuation of perspective toward one’s younger self, structural and tonal strategies in organizing memory, and the uses and abuses of confessionalsim.

Prerequisite(s)/Course Notes:
May be repeated for credit when topics vary. (Formerly Creative Non-Fiction Writing Workshop.)
