19.5 What I have learned

Before finishing your work on this unit, please revisit what you worked on in Activity 1, where we asked you to take some notes on what you already knew in relation to the key learning point of the unit.

Compare your notes from before you studied this unit with what you have learned here and add to these notes as you see fit to produce a record of your learning.

Here are the key learning points again for you as a reminder:

• the narrator and the narrative: who utters the words in the Scots language and what is the authority of her or his narrative
• the relation between the short story and the novel as forms of prose literary fiction
• the relation between English and Scots in literary prose fiction and how has it changed from the 18^th century till now
• changes in the 1930s and the lasting effect these have had on literary prose fiction since then.
