Short story. A little bit of LITERATURE! :)

-

 In terms of literature,

Short Story is a brief fictional prose narrative that is shorter than a novel and that usually deals with only a few characters.

The form encourage economy of settings, concise narrative, and the omission of a complex plot; character is disclosed in action and dramatic encounter but is seldom fully developed.





Tale is older than the sketch, and is a manifestation of culture's unageing desire to name and conceptualize its place in the cosmos, it provides culture's narrative framework for such things as its vision of itself.



Sketch is intercultural, depicting some phenomenon of one culture for the benefic or pleasure of a second culture, factual and journalistic, in essence the sketch is generally more analytic or descriptive and less narrative or dramatic than the tale.

Moreover, the sketch by nature is suggestive, incomplete; the tale is often hyperbolic, overstated.


Ok! so that's all, take a break and see U in class! :)
