ENG 207 - Creative Eye: Writ with Style

Institution:

Cabrini University - Closed

Subject:

English

Description:

This class is about the craft of writing. Students will read mostly contemporary essays to study how an author's subject---and a reader's understanding of it-can be shaped and illuminated by diction, syntax, tone, form and structure. Through assigned readings, students will explore how techniques such as description, dialogue, digression, anecdote, narrative and setting are used to convey information with power and style. Students will take the insights gleaned from class readings and discussion and apply them to their own writing projects. As a result, students in The Creative Eye will become more accomplished writers capable of producing sophisticated and compelling written work. 3 credits
