Prerequisites:
The Journal examines the use of journals as psychological, sociological, and historical documents, and as tools for self-expression and creativity. The course focusses on three types of journals. Students will be given the option of keeping a journal of their own and will practise journal-writing techniques throughout the term, using various forms of writing such as notes, observations, drafts, dream analysis, or dialogues, among others. We will also observe how these forms of writing are used by published writers. In addition, students will read non-fiction journals and discuss elements common to them, determining how journal writers have made use of the form in ways that can benefit students' work-oriented or academic writing.
