COURSE INTRODUCTION (BEGE-141)
Welcome to the course entitled Understanding Prose, the code for which is
BEGE-141.
This course has four Blocks and deals with the varieties as well as forms of prose
– both fictional and non-fictional. But before we talk about these, let us consider
what prose is. Let us take an example, from a great French comedy Le Bourgeois
Gentilhomme by the writer Moliere (1622-73). This is the story of a man who
has suddenly made a lot of money but does not have social status. In short, he
would like to be a ‘gentleman’. So, he employs several teachers in order to learn
how to move in polite society.
One day, during the course of conversation, his elocution teacher tells him that
what he speaks is prose. His surprised response is: ‘To think I have been speaking
prose these last forty years without knowing it!’ Isn’t that the case with many of
us? But is the prose of everyday conversation the same as “literary” prose? Or
is it different? Is “literary” prose more elaborate, artificial and stylized? In our
course, we shall look at various samples of literary prose and try to understand
what constitutes its “literariness”. You will read a wide and interesting selection
of varieties and forms of prose.

This course consists of 4 Blocks:

Block 1: Varieties of Prose
Block 2: Forms of Prose: Short Stories and Essays
Block 3: Biography and Autobiography
Block 4: Diary, Speech, Letters and Travelogues.



In Block 1 we have dealt with three varieties of prose: descriptive, narrative and
expository. But can these three varieties be separated into watertight
compartments? No. it is only for purpose of analysis that we have made this
distinction. You will find that the dividing line between these categories is rather
thin and you can find samples of all three varieties in any one prose form. For
example, if we take a passage from a short story or novel, we may find that it
may have description, narration and exposition all in the space of a few lines.
In the next 3 Blocks we shall introduce you to prose forms such as the short
story, essays, biography, autobiography, diary, speeches, letters and travelogues.
The aim of this course is to improve your reading skills by exposing you to a
wide range of prose selections. Why do we study literature? The study of literature
involves not only enjoyment but also awareness. This stems from our participation
in the human experience which is highlighted in particular uses of language and
various literary devices. We must understand what these device are if we are to
enjoy the full range of aesthetic experience that literature has to offer.
