Creative Writing
This is an advanced writing course designed to teach students how to write creatively in French.
Students explore different kinds of narrative genres, styles, and rhetoric figures by reading excerpts of famous
French authors. Students develop essential tools: critical reading and literary analysis; writing, revising and
editing original material; greater appreciation of the interconnectedness between literary thematic content and
aesthetics; and a practical understanding of the creative process. Using the tools acquired, students practice
various forms of writing, culminating in their final project: writing a short story through collaborative or
individual writing.
Prerequisites
Completion of a Study Abroad program in French, or Instructor Consent.
