Creative Writing Minor Summer Reading 2019-20 ______ Creative Writing Minor Summer Reading 2019-20 _________________________________________ WELCOME TO THE CREATIVE WRITING MINOR AT NCH! As a student of Creative Writing you will undertake a guided practical study of the craft of writing poetry, short fiction, dramatic scripts and creative nonfiction. You will also work in a variety of writing modes that combine, blur or challenge these formal distinctions. All skilful writers (‘creative’ or otherwise) are also skilful readers. Confident creative writers are capable of distilling insights from their reading that enhance their understanding of their craft. Reading as a writer is a unique skill, and one that you will hone as a student of Creative Writing. NCH422 THE WRITER’S CRAFT (30 credits; taught over the whole year) In the first-year course, NCH422 The Writer’s Craft, you will develop your compositional and editorial skills in three primary forms: poetry, the short story and drama. In this way, you will gain a solid foundation for more advanced work in the second- and third-year courses. 1) SUMMER WRITING TASK: START YOUR ‘COMMONPLACE BOOK’ In all Creative Writing courses at NCH, you are required to keep two notebooks or exercise books. These should be no smaller than A5 and are for the following uses: A) 1 x Writer’s Workbook for writing exercises conducted in class and for homework. B) 1 x Commonplace Book for copying out your favourite or exemplary passages of writing encountered in your reading for the course. A) During in-class writing exercises, you are required to write by hand in your Writer’s Workbook, unless you require special dispensation to use a laptop computer or other device. As this is a writing minor degree, expect to be doing more writing than that required for other courses. B) A Commonplace Book is a notebook in which writers enter snippets or passages of writing they most admire or enjoy, or indeed that enrapture them. These include memorable turns of phrase, sentences, dialogue, paragraphs and so on. Think of it as a ‘close-reading diary’. Your Commonplace Book doubles as a source of future inspiration and a way of focusing your attention on the nuts and bolts of writing creatively. You will be asked to submit your Commonplace Book to your Course Leader in Week 4 for formative appraisal and tutorial discussion. Please feel free to commence this task over the summer. Here is what you will be asked to do to start your Commonplace Book: Take a ruled notebook of your choice, and enter into it by hand the following items (in any order), followed by their source details (author, title and year if possible): 1 CREATIVE WRITING MINOR READING LIST (NCH422 THE WRITER’S CRAFT) ______________________________________________________________________________________ • 2 x complete poems that you have read and enjoyed • 4 x stand-alone sentences that you admire from works of fiction (novels, short stories) • 1 x complete paragraph of prose from any source (fiction or nonfiction) • 1 x passage of dialogue from a stage play (minimum 14 lines) These items can be taken from the Course Reading if you wish. You will continue to add to your Commonplace Book during the course. 2) READING LIST FOR NCH422 THE WRITER’S CRAFT 2019-20 (OVER PAGE) Below you will find the Reading List for The Writer’s Craft. In this course will study two kinds of texts: 1) Examples of the literary forms studied (i.e. poems, plays, short stories); for NCH422 The Writer’s Craft, the set examples for the year amount to approximately: • 30-40 Poems • 12-15 Short Stories; and • 3-4 Play scripts 2) Instructional works, in the form of book chapters or articles written by experts, that offer explicit guidance on technical and other elements of the writer’s craft, both generally and with regards to specific literary forms (i.e. on writing poetry, dramatic scripts, and short fiction). SUMMER READING ADVICE: 1) You are encouraged to make a start on the year’s reading in the summer before matriculation. It may be most useful for you to make a start on the PLAYS and SHORT STORIES in particular, as these tend to be the most time-consuming readings for students during the year. 2) Two COURSE READERS for NCH422 The Writer’s Craft (one for each term), which contain most of the following readings, will be available upon request from August 1. We hope you enjoy exploring the Reading List for The Writer’s Craft below (and the COURSE READERS), and look forward to seeing you in Michaelmas Term.

Houcine Msaddek I dedicate this work in memory of my father who was a devoted listener of BBC Arabic in the nineteen-sixties and throughout the seventies. Introduction 1 BBC Arabic is both the largest and oldest of the British Broadcasting Corporation’s non- English language services. Launched in January 1938 in an almost direct response to Mussolini’s increasingly provocative anti-British Arabic language broadcasts aired from Bari, the Arabic Service of the BBC has constantly cultivated the loyalty of millions of listeners in the Middle East and North Africa ever since.

  • 'Doctrine' and 'Poetry' in TS Eliot Tony Sharpe
    Contribution to Religion and Myth in the Poetry of T.S. Eliot, eds. Michael Bell and Scott Freer (Newcastle: Cambridge Scholars, 2016) 1 Feb 2016. [Published July 2016, pp. 27-47] ‘Somehow Integrated’: ‘Doctrine’ and ‘Poetry’ in T.S. Eliot Tony Sharpe I write this as the semi-centenary occurs of Eliot’s death in January 1965; his wife Valerie’s name has now joined his on the oval tablet at St Michael’s, East Coker, which invokes our ‘charity’ to pray for the repose of their souls. In suddenly-accelerated publication, five volumes of his letters and two of his collected prose have appeared in recent years; a new biography is imminent and a scholarly edition of the complete poetry in prospect. All this offers opportunity to take stock: the time, as might be said, is now propitious. Yet as early as 1938, Wallace Stevens was describing Eliot’s ‘prodigious reputation’ as ‘a great difficulty’ for any reader wishing to approach him ‘out of the pew’.1 Whether this surge of scholarship will increase or abate charitable impulses toward the poet and his oeuvre remains to be seen: Eliot’s visible presence in St Michael’s (not the only church in which he is commemorated), together with the accumulating volumes of his writing, could be viewed as part of an official installation already problematical, as hinted in Stevens’s mischievous formulation. For it almost became a truth universally acknowledged, that Eliot’s poetry was damaged by his Christianity; his faith was travestied as part of an intellectual evasion through which he accepted answers rather than posed questions, and in so doing lost contact with the powerful uncertainties and radical sources of unknowingness that had generated his earlier verse.

While Rome is sweltering in the height of summer, a serial killer is on the loose. Sara Farnese is working in the Vatican library when a man bursts in intent on showing her the contents of his bloodied bag, until a guard shoots him. But why was the man targeting Sara? Determined to find answers, Sara’s path crosses with a young up-and- coming Roman detective, Nic Costa. He’s determined to track down the dangerous killer behind this bizarre and brutal murder and to protect Sara from becoming the next victim. THE VILLA OF MYSTERIES David Hewson An ancient ritual. A modern-day crime. A body is found in a peat bog near the banks of the River Tiber. Teresa Lupo, a maverick pathologist, believes it was a young woman sacrificed long ago in an ancient Roman ritual. But she’s wrong. Whilst the method of killing is ancient history, this murder happened very recently. The horror of these ritualistic killings is very much alive and it’s up to Nic Costa to get to the bottom of it.
