Session 8: Historical Fiction and Preparing for Mid-term

Hello everyone,

For session 8 we'll be looking at the genre of historical fiction and
preparing for the mid-term
. In recognition of the fact that many of you have mid-terms this week and will be traveling over spring break, I'm cutting down the assignment a bit.

To prepare for class, please:
  • Read Chapter 8 in C & G on historical fiction. Focus on the definition of the genre and the types of criteria you would use to evaluate historical fiction.
  • Bring a hard copy of the McLeod article to class. (You'll find it on Angel.) We'll read and discuss it together.
  • If you were a facilitator or did artistic response for Voices, remember that you have a second paper to write and submit before next session.
Stay safe and enjoy spring break!
