TTC Video – Building Great Sentences: Exploring the Writer’s Craft
Categories: Science and Engineering, Tutorial
Written By: BitterRoad
Great writing begins—and ends—with the sentence.
Whether two words (”Jesus wept.”) or 1,287 words (a sentence in William Faulkner’s Absalom! Absalom!), sentences have the power to captivate, entertain, motivate, educate, and, most importantly, delight.
Understanding the variety of ways to construct sentences, from the smallest clause to the longest sentence, is important to enhancing your appreciation of great writing and potentially improving your own.
Why do some lengthy sentences flow effortlessly while others stumble along?
Why are you captivated by the writing of particular authors but not others?
How can you craft sentences that reflect your own unique outlook on the world?
Get the answers to these and other questions about writing and style in Building Great Sentences: Exploring the Writer’s Craft, a lively 24-lecture course taught by Professor Brooks Landon from the University of Iowa—one of the nation’s top writing schools. You explore the myriad ways in which we think about, talk about, and write sentences. You discover insights into what makes for pleasurable reading. You also learn how you can apply these methods to your own writing.
