| Description | The transdisciplinary field of creative writing offers didactic tools for working with text in various analytical-interpretive, imitative, or text-creating operations in the fields of literature, journalism, professional writing, and translation. Creative writing has elaborated methods for developing the skills necessary for making texts, from the modelling of theme and structure, to the development of individual style, to optimization and self-reflective writing. These methods include: reception and analysis; identification of meaning and other (stylistic, macropoetic, and genre-based) characteristics; interpretation; and assessment. In this way, creative writing techniques are not only relevant to professional and popular writing, but to the teaching of literature, literary theory, stylistic procedures, and translation. In this essay, the author presents examples from his work with university students, to demonstrate the potential, using targeted exercises, for developing and deepening empathy towards text-based works, as well as the possibilities and advantages of applying creative text-making strategies when working with texts. Creative writing thus appears to be a methodologically, quantitatively, and qualitatively suitable choice for the development of communication competences based on working with texts. |
