(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.

Washington Square

DURING A PORTION of the first half of the present century, and more particularly
during the latter part of it, there flourished and practiced in the city of New York a
physician who enjoyed perhaps an exceptional share of the consideration which, in the
United States, has always been bestowed upon distinguished members of the medical
profession. This profession in America has constantly been held in honor, and more
successfully than elsewhere has put forward a claim to the epithet of “liberal.” In a
country in which, to play a social part, you must either earn your income or make
believe that you earn it, the healing art has appeared in a high degree to combine two
recognized sources of credit. It belongs to the realm of the practical, which in the
United States is a great recommendation; and it is touched by the light of science- a
merit appreciated in a community in which the love of knowledge has not always been
accompanied by leisure and opportunity.
It was an element in Doctor Sloper’s reputation that his learning and his skill were very
evenly balanced; he was what you might call a scholarly doctor, and yet there was
nothing abstract in his remedies- he always ordered you to take something. Though he
was felt to be extremely thorough, he was not uncomfortably theoretic; and if he
sometimes explained matters rather more minutely than might seem of use to the
patient, he never went so far (like some practitioners one had heard of) as to trust to the
explanation alone, but always left behind him an inscrutable prescription.
