Study of Fiction - Narrative and Health Care

Course Description

What are stories? What can stories do? What can you do with stories? In this class these questions will guide us as we study how stories are built and what happens when we read, write, listen to, and tell them. Over the course of the semester we will examine both the inner workings of fictional texts—their plots, points of views, characters, settings, tones, styles, themes, and symbols—and different critical and analytic approaches to fiction such as Reader-Oriented literary criticism, Disability Studies literary criticism, and Narrative Medicine.
