Topics in Danish Short Prose

Focuses on the fairy tale and story, with selections by Bicher, H.C. Andersen, Bang, Blixen, and others.

Class description

Vi skal læse et udvalg af nogle af de bedste danske noveller og eventyr/historier, fra H. C. Andersen til Helle Helle. Hovedvægten vil ligge i 1990erne, hvor kortprosaen virkelig dominerede dansk litteratur (takket være forfattere som Jan Sonnergaard, Pia Juul, Helle Helle, Naja Marie Aidt, Christina Hesselholdt, Peter Adolphsen, osv.). Novellens historie afdækkes via læsning af H.C.Andersen, Peter Seeberg, Villy Sørensen, Karen Blixen.
