Book Description
England's Daily Telegraph sponsors an annual contest for this unique genre, a sort of prose haiku. A mini-saga is a story with a beginning, middle, and end but it can only be fifty words long, exactly (try it, it isn't easy). Herewith are the winning 2001 entries: witty, inventive, provocative, tantalizing mini tales-of love, tragedy, religion, horror, the future-and other strong contenders as selected by the committee led by the noted SF author, Brian Aldiss, as well as some specially commissioned pieces.

Shorties
Author: Engelbert Thaler
Publisher: Narr Francke Attempto Verlag
ISBN: 3823379976
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 206
Book Description
Short narrative texts are good for the language classroom because they are short and narrative. Therefore this volume treats the teaching potential of Shorties on a theoretical level (part A), a methodological level (part B) , and a practical level (part C). Part A highlights the topic from the perspectives of different academic disciplines, in this case from a TEFL as well as from a linguistic and literary viewpoint. In part B, methodological contributions on selected texts, media and procedures are assembled. Part C is a collection of concrete sample lessons for teaching English at various levels. These lesson plans have been designed at university, carried out and evaluated by 11 experienced teachers, and finally revised by the editor.
