For the great rewriters their quest is to find the untold stories: the silenced characters, the hidden themes, the alternative perspectives and re-right the erasures and gaps in the story.
Does that mean that there are no new stories to be told? It certainly didn’t mean that for Shakespeare or the Grimm Brothers or Margaret Atwood or the countless other writers who felt that the stories they rewrote contained secrets and silences that had a right to be told. There is a saying that all writing is rewriting.
£55 before 31 st January or £65 thereafter PREVIOUS COURSES Starts 5th February 2023 !!SOLD OUT!! All Writing is Re-Righting We’ll be looking at poets too, and this course will also include a Writer’s Choice text. We’ll explore the Orkney Folktales captured by Tom Muir, Ben Okri, The Brontës, Cheryl Strayed, Barbara Cisneros, Elizabeth Von Arnin, Fukido Chiyo-Ni, Zoe Gilbert, Katherine May, and may more writers and poets who map the wondrous and strange places in our world. We’ll look at stories from oral cultures from around the world, as well as stories from past and present that explore the many facets of writing place. In this course we will explore the many ways that humans have held their ground in their writing about place – from unearthing the dark side of nature to stories that seek to re-enchant our wonderlands. Tales have always protected the land, think of the badluck stories that have stopped developers from disturbing the fairy forts in Ireland and Scotland, to one of the pioneers of conservation Beatrix Potter and her tales of Peter Rabbit and friends. In this way writers do something really powerful, they create narrative protection for the places that inspire their stories. Our most contemporary storytellers speak of the land with awe, enchantment and urgency to protect what is slipping away with climate change.
