1 Lance Olsen Narrative Theory & Practice Office: LNCO 3415 ENGL 7540, 3 Credits Hours: T 3:45-4:15, Th 3:45-5:00 T 4:30 7:30 & by appt. LNCO lance.olsen@utah.edu Spring 2014 syllabus description. From one perspective, all narrativity save for those most acutely cookiecutter varieties (Harlequin romance, pulp science fiction, potboiler porn, etc.) is experimental in that it involves countless acts of exploration and discovery on the part of author and reader. From another, however, such a statement is devoid of theoretical nuance, a sense of the larger conversation across time and space called literary history, and an understanding of the (ir)realities concerning the pragmatics of the current publishing industry. Perhaps closer to the point might be some provisional statement suggesting experimental narrativity or innovative, avant-garde, modern, amodern, meta-modern, digi-modern, postmodern, alternative, or whatever other troubled and troubling term we might choose to deploy and interrogate in this situation is that which asks such questions as: what is narrative? what are its assumptions? what are its politics and social dynamics? its limits? how does narrative engage with the problematics of representation? identity? temporality? gender? genre? ideas of literature and the literary? authorship? readership and the act of reading? In other words, perhaps another way of approaching a tentative definition of experimental narrativity might be to suggest it is the sort that includes a self-reflective awareness of and engagement with theoretical inquiry, concerns, obsessions. In this seminar, which weekly will be roughly divided in half between an experimental forms workshop and a literary-theoretical discussion, we shall explore various 20 th - and 21 st -century theoretical texts and creative prose that have been labeled experimental in order to investigate the above questions, better understand both more and less conventional narrativity, and help place our own writing critical, creative, amphibious within the context of current colloquies concerning narrative theory and practice. grading. Final grades will be calculated on a 100-point system: 25 experimental narrative work 25 critifictional ars poetica 25 weekly discussion board posts 25 attendance, participation, responses

3 syllabus : narrative theory & practice : olsen page : 3 critifictional ars poetica. A critifiction is a work that performs the hybridization of theoretical and creative imaginations. An ars poetica is a treatise that sets forth one s precepts for one s own poetics. A critifitional ars poetica is an as-yet undefined possibility space that will attempt to erase the artificial distinction between primary and secondary discourses in our post-genre moment while setting forth your perspectives on narrative theory and practice. That is, it is a form you will invent as you engage with it, an authentic literary experiment, and so it may take myriad approaches with respect to its shape and subject an examination of specific narrative techniques in a work or works we will have studied; an argument for or against a certain narrative technique or techniques; an investigation of a technique or techniques in your own work; an interaction with your own fiction/criticism or an appropriation/manipulation of someone else s something, in any case, that we simply can t imagine yet.
