015 Creative Reading
| Course Description | |
|---|---|
| An examination of playful texts that portray and demand active - even disruptive - readers. Assesses a variety of literary techniques that cede authority to readers, such as digression, nonsense, fragmentation, self-parody, and untamed footnotes. Authors may include Laurence Sterne, Lewis Carroll, Oscar Wilde, Gertrude Stein, Vladimir Nabokov, Grace Paley, A. S. Byatt, and David Foster Wallace. Ends with a consideration of how readers "create" hypertext. | |
