课程简介

本课程《创意写作:展现人物情感》旨在帮助作家们克服一项最具挑战性的任务——如何真实地向读者传达人物情感。课程强调“展示,而非告知”的写作原则,解释了仅仅描述事件(如“主角死了”)并不能引起读者的情感共鸣。 课程将探讨如何避免陈词滥调,通过人物的行为、细微的身体反应以及具体的场景描写,让读者感受到角色之间的爱恋、失去亲人的悲伤、调查谋杀案的恐惧等复杂情绪。 学员将学习如何像社会学家或心理学家一样深入理解情感,并通过对比“告知式”和“展示式”的句子,理解如何触动读者内心。课程还将详细列举各种情感引发的身体反应,帮助学员掌握真正引起读者共鸣的技巧,让读者仿佛身临其境。 如果你想让你的文字充满感染力,触动读者的心弦,让角色活灵活现,那么这门课程将是你的理想选择。

How do you convey an emotion? The answer to this question is a very complicated challenge for us writers, perhaps the most difficult one of all of them: that's why we can't take it lightly. Of course, we could write: "And then, the main character in our story.died".Was that clear? No doubt.But did we stir anguish in the reader? Fear? Awe? Concern? Well, no, not really. And the truth is, it's not easy to convey an emotion to the reader, in the same way that it's not easy to talk about it in real life. Many of us prefer to show our emotions through actions, or by buying a gift, for example a bouquet of flowers: but how do we make our reader feel the love that two characters are feeling for each other without falling into clichés? How do we make the reader sad when our character has lost someone they care about? How do we make them frightened when our character is investigating a murder? The simple answer is: through the "show, don't tell" principle, and we've talked about it at length in our course "Creative writing: the full course". We need to become excellent sociologists or psychologists, or scholars of social and romantic relationships; or, as an alternative, you can enroll this course. How do you show and make people feel anxiety, depression, anger, desire, boredom and many other emotions that we will describe in this course? How do you make the scene in which the character is feeling such an emotion a realistic one, and how do you make your reader feel it-almost like they're living in that moment themselves?We will compare sentences that "tell", or describe an emotion, with those that "show" it and that trigger the same feelings in us who are reading. We will make a detailed list of the bodily reactions that each emotion provokes in us.Because that's the only way you can learn how to really get your reader excited.Are you ready to begin this journey? I can't wait!
