What Makes a Good Story
In this unit, we have read a few short stories, essays, and some poetry. We have read these works with a critical eye noting the components of a good story. Some have stated that a good story must have a clear timeline and a single character that grows over time. Others have suggested that readers must be able to connect to the character, and this connection is accomplished by having an emotional connection to that character. Some scholars have argued that literature must instruct and delight, meaning teach and entertain. You have annotated the readings and written short responses on Canvas to formulate your own ideas on the topic. And you have drafted your ideas to compose an organized essay.
Readings:
Scholarship Jacket
Red Palm
The Circuit
“The State”
“Better Homes and Gardens”
Task:
Now that you have discussed the makings of a good story, where do you stand? Do you agree that literature should instruct and delight? Select one of the stories that we have read in class to support your definition of a good story.
