In this broad introduction to creative writing, students experiment with various kinds of prose fiction and creative non-fiction, as well as - time permitting - exploring some subgenres of poetry and drama. In addition to providing a forum for committed and hard-working participants to work intensively at their own writing skills, the seminar should interest future teachers alert to the rich potential of creative writing in teaching language and literature. Praxistudien related to this seminar are possible for students in the "old" BA who are not planning to become teachers. Students in the new BA who are not planning to become teachers may be able to fulfil some, but not all, of the “Praxisstudien” requirements in the form of serious writing projects that they develop parallel to the seminar as well. Praxisstudien projects always have to be discussed and designed on an individual basis in consultation with me.
The seminar is open to any student of English who enjoys creative writing, or would like to try it - provided there is enough space in the room. Please note, though, that students in the new BA (2011-2012 onwards) can only get credit for the seminar if it becomes part of Vertiefungsmodul 6 (which is not yet being offered). However, this is a course that tends to attract people who participate solely for the pleasure of writing and being with like-minded individuals - and that is what gives the class its soul and energy. Students in the new BA who are NOT planning to become teachers may also complete part of their “Praxisstudien” requirements in the seminar.
Will be presented in class and online.
