Summary/Abstract |
The short story is the most widely read of all modern genres and favoured by many distinguished fiction writers but as a form, it has been relatively neglected by literary historians and theorists. Good books about the novel are legion; books of any sort about the short story are very scarce.
This book examines some problems of definition of 'short' and 'story', and moves on to trace the emergence of what is usually meant by the 'modern short story' and examines the various sorst of narrative from which it derives; the sketch, yarn, parable and fable and composite types.
