English 281 - Creative Nonfiction

Institution:

Wheaton College - Massachusetts

Subject:

Description:

In richly textured prose that pays attention to detail, metaphor and perspective, workshop participants will reflect on various landscapes and their effects on the imagination. The places might include the students' hometowns and neighborhoods as well as vacation spots or travels abroad. By linking the writers' experiences of these places to broader themes in literature, especially the themes in travel literature, workshop participants will craft works of literary nonfiction. While the workshop is intended for students of creative writing, the class may interest students in history, art and art history, as well as the natural sciences. (Deyonne Bryant)
