CRW:Fiction Writers & Censorship

55-5203

In this course, students read the fiction of successful authors who have been forced to confront one or more forms of censorship and marginalization. Students will respond to these works as writers in journal entries, research and discuss the writers' creative process in writing the novel, give an oral report on an author of choice, and write an essay. In addition, students undertake creative writing assignments that will encourage them to reflect upon the social context in which writers work and that will help them examine their own processes of writing.
