Creative Writing

Students acquire theoretical and practical knowledge in the broad interdisciplinary field of artistic endeavour with a focus on literature. Students learn about the artistic practice of writing all literary forms (poetry, prose, drama and essay writing), as well as screenplay writing (film and other screenplays).
This dimension depends on their personal motivation and on the study profile:
1) practical writing skills should help the students studying exclusively Comparative Literature to deepen and widen their knowledge in literary history and theory;
2) the intense course in different writing technics should help the students enrolling to the Creative Writing program because of their own artistic motivation to find their own and personal poetic voice;
3) the aim in the pedagogical profile is to learn techniques which will later help them to animate their students and pupils in schools where they will teach, and to open a creative space for beginners.
This program gives an insight into the writing techniques of different literary forms (including screenplays) and into the history of poetic, prose and essayistic forms and procedures.
One of its most important goals is to encourage the students’ capacity for self-reflection and critical evaluation of their own work.
