R4172: The Never-Ending Journey for the Period: A Lively Discussion on the Use and Meaning of Absurdly Long and Gramatically Dubious Sentences in Literary Works in Splash Spring 2015 (Apr. 11 - 12, 2015)
Ever had your English teacher tell you to get rid of that really long run-on sentence in your essay? Or even been told to make your sentences straight-to-the-point in your creative writing? Well, in this class we'll not only embrace those longer sentences, but try to understand why and how they can be utilized in some of the most artful and (in)famous passages from writers of the last century. Hemingway be damned. This class will cover examples from Marquez, Joyce, Faulkner, Woolf, and more—as well as explore their roles within the stream of consciousness movement of writing.
