The short story is moving from relative neglect to a more central
position in the literary curriculum. As a teaching tool, its
accessibility offers students a route into many complex areas,
including critical theory, gender studies, postcolonialism,
literary adaptation and genre. Teaching the Short Story offers a
practical guide to the short story in the classroom, covering all
these fields - and more. With a team of international contributors
including Charles E. May, whose "Short Story Theories" marked the
beginning of the current revival in short story criticism, it
demonstrates, above all, the potential of the short story as a
genre in its own right. "Teaching the Short Story" explores current
debates and challenges facing short story scholars and writers in
Britain and the US. It is an essential introduction both to those
who are new to this diverse and exciting field; and also suggests
future directions for those undertaking postgraduate research in
the short story.
