Course Description:
This course will help students develop their creative writing skills in French. Through close analysis of francophone texts from a variety of time periods, geographical regions, and genres, students will hone critical reading skills with an eye towards applying techniques and styles to their own imaginative writing. How does one construct a short story, a poem, or an autobiographical text? What are different narrative choices that you, as a writer, can make to build dramatic tension, develop characters, and construct dialogues? Students will have the opportunity to workshop their writing in class, provide constructive feedback to peers, and build a portfolio of creative materials in French. |
