CRW: Cont. European Writers

55-4208

This course researches the writing processes of contemporary European writers, including the ways in which their reading and responses to reading play influential roles in the overall fiction-writing process. Journals and other writings by contemporary European authors will be used as examples of how writers develop dimensions of their own fiction and see their work in relation to other writers. The course involves study of the development of diverse techniques and voices of some of the most prominent contemporary European authors, the so-called "post-war" generation, in such countries as Germany, France, Czechoslovakia, Italy, Spain, Poland, Scandinavia, and Russia.
