This course will take a close look at significant short stories from a range of times and places. We will place the stories in their literary and historical contexts and will employ a variety of theoretical and critical approaches to unpick their meanings. We will look at spine-chillers by Cambridge’s master of the ghost story, M R James, plus work by Katherine Mansfield, D H Lawrence and Shirley Jackson, among others.
