"To Read without reflection is to eat without
digestion." Edmund Burk
The aim of this book is to introduce imaginative
literature to the student in a concrete, cohesive,
and self-contained way, and to help the student
appreciate an original literary text in its
totality, with less dependence on the teacher
guidance or such requirements as dissociated
abstract courses in literary terms. The book has
been designed for the Short Story course in
undergraduate level, yet it can also be used for
courses such as Introduction to Literature, Creative
Reading, and Creative Writing. Two particular
features of this book are as follows:
1. it checks the student's ease and speed which may
result in the lack of appreciation and delight, and
may also lead to passive and superficial education.
2. Full appreciation and pleasure of reading come
from the process, not the product. Therefore,
instead of post-reading 'end questions' that are
common in many books and anthologies, this book
provides pre-reading questions before and between
the paragraphs, in accordance with the process of
reading, to encourage checking and guessing.
