Reading for the plenaries is drawn from the literature on writing by writers and primary texts in a variety of genres. Plenary courses meet once a week.
Student presentations on selected readings make up a significant part of the course. Student participation is paramount. There will also be written assignments. This plenary course allows students to acquaint themselves with and vigorously debate the varied ways in which writers describe their art and practice, and includes readings from such writers as Italo Calvino, Anne Carson, Sheila Heti, Dennis Lee, Harold Pinter, and David Shields, among others.
We will examine how writers understand and describe their creative processes, techniques, and aims, and engage with a range of subjects including the competing roles of experience and imagination, the place of theft and influence in creativity, the usefulness of the idea of perfection, questions of representation, including the nature of realism, and the use of formal structures in poetry and prose. This plenary course involves students in significant, often highly contentious debates on the role of writing in the world—debates that form a context within which the solitary writer creates his or her own imaginative worlds.
Coetzee, Orhan Pamuk, Salman Rushdie among others will be examined. The individual study course, required in the third summer semester of the program, offers students the opportunity to work one-on-one with a professional writer. For the majority of students, it is likely to be an intensive writing course conducted through a twelve-week mentorship with a professional writer chosen by the student in consultation with the program Coordinator. Many students use the mentorships as an opportunity to begin focused work on their thesis manuscript, although this is not required.
Occasionally, the mentorship will be primarily a reading course, with practice in writing in relation to particular models or readings. Great care will be taken to achieve a good match between student and mentor.
The mentorship is designed to accommodate the variable learning needs of individual students. The design and schedule of the individual study course will be arrived at through consultation between the Coordinator, the student, and the mentor.
The thesis is the single most important component of the MFA program. The thesis might be a novel, a book-length manuscript of poems, a collection of short stories, a full-length play or screenplay, or a work of creative nonfiction.
