(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.

The Fountainhead    

Many people have asked me how I feel about the fact that The Fountainhead has
been in print for twenty-five years. I cannot say that I feel anything in
particular, except a kind of quiet satisfaction. In this respect, my attitude
toward my writing is best expressed by a statement of Victor Hugo: "If a writer
wrote merely for his time, I would have to break my pen and throw it away."
Certain writers, of whom I am one, do not live, think or write on the range of
the moment. Novels, in the proper sense of the word, are not written to vanish
in a month or a year. That most of them do, today, that they are written and
published as if they were magazines, to fade as rapidly, is one of the sorriest
aspects of today’s literature, and one of the clearest indictments of its
dominant esthetic philosophy: concrete-bound, journalistic Naturalism which has
now reached its dead end in the inarticulate sounds of panic.
Longevity-predominantly, though not exclusively-is the prerogative of a literary
school which is virtually non-existent today: Romanticism. This is not the place
for a dissertation on the nature of Romantic fiction, so let me state--for the
record and for the benefit of those college students who have never been allowed
to discover it--only that Romanticism is the conceptual school of art. It deals,
not with the random trivia of the day, but with the timeless, fundamental,
universal problems and values of human existence. It does not record or
photograph; it creates and projects. It is concerned--in the words of
Aristotle--not with things as they are, but with things as they might be and
ought to be.
