(Stories and novels) القصص والروايات
الرواية هي سرد نثري طويل يصف شخصيات خيالية أو واقعية وأحداثاً على شكل قصة متسلسلة، كما أنها أكبر الأجناس القصصية من حيث الحجم وتعدد الشخصيات وتنوع الأحداث، وقد ظهرت في أوروبا بوصفها جنساً أدبياً مؤثراً في القرن الثامن عشر، والرواية حكاية تعتمد السرد بما فيه من وصف وحوار وصراع بين الشخصيات وما ينطوي عليه ذلك من تأزم وجدل وتغذيه الأحداث
A novel is a relatively long work of narrative fiction, normally written in prose form, and which is typically published as a book. The present English word for a long work of prose fiction derives from the Italian novella for "new", "news", or "short story of something new", itself from the Latin novella, a singular noun use of the neuter plural of novellus, diminutive of novus, meaning "new". Walter Scott made a distinction between the novel, in which (as he saw it) "events are accommodated to the ordinary train of human events and the modern state of society" and the romance, which he defined as "a fictitious narrative in prose or verse; the interest of which turns upon marvellous and uncommon incidents". However, many such romances, including the historical romances of Scott, Emily Brontë's Wuthering Heights and Herman Melville's Moby-Dick, are also frequently called novels, and Scott describes romance as a "kindred term". This sort of romance is in turn different from the genre fiction love romance or romance novel
A short story is a piece of prose fiction that typically can be read in one sitting and focuses on a self-contained incident or series of linked incidents, with the intent of evoking a "single effect" or mood.

A dictionary definition is "an invented prose narrative shorter than a novel usually dealing with a few characters and aiming at unity of effect and often concentrating on the creation of mood rather than plot."

The short story is a crafted form in its own right. Short stories make use of plot, resonance, and other dynamic components as in a novel, but typically to a lesser degree. While the short story is largely distinct from the novel or novella (a shorter novel), authors generally draw from a common pool of literary techniques.

Caddie Woodlawn    

In 1864 Caddie Woodlawn was eleven, and as wild a little tomboy as ever ran the woods of western Wisconsin. She was the
despair of her mother and of her elder sister, Clara. But her father watched her with a little shine of pride in his eyes, and her
brothers accepted her as one of themselves without a question. Indeed, Tom, who was two years older, and Warren, who was
two years younger than Caddie, needed Caddie to link them together into an inseparable trio. Together they got in and out of
more scrapes and adventures than any one of them could have imagined alone. And in those pioneer days, Wisconsin offered
plenty of opportunities for adventure to three wide-eyed, red-headed youngsters.
On a bright Saturday afternoon in the early fall, Tom and Caddie and Warren Woodlawn sat on a bank of the Menomonie
River, or Red Cedar as they call it now, taking off their clothes. Their red heads shone in the sunlight. Tom's hair was the
darkest, Caddie's the nearest golden, and nine-year-old Warren's was plain carrot color. Not one of the three knew how to
swim, but they were going across the river nevertheless. A thin thread of smoke beyond the bend on the other side of the river
told them that the Indians were at work on a birch-bark canoe.
"Do you think the Indians around here would ever get mad and massacre folks like they did up north?" wondered Warren,
tying his shirt up in a little bundle.
"No, sir," said Tom, "not these Indians!"
"Not Indian John, anyhow," said Caddie. She had just unfastened the many troublesome little buttons on the back of her tightwaisted dress, and, before taking it off, she paused a moment to see if she could balance a fresh-water clam shell on her big
toe. She found that she could.
