(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 Three Musketeers
On the first Monday of the month of April, 1625, the
market town of Meung, in which the author of ROMANCE
OF THE ROSE was born, appeared to be in as perfect a state
of revolution as if the Huguenots had just made a second
La Rochelle of it. Many citizens, seeing the women flying
toward the High Street, leaving their children crying at the
open doors, hastened to don the cuirass, and supporting
their somewhat uncertain courage with a musket or a partisan, directed their steps toward the hostelry of the Jolly
Miller, before which was gathered, increasing every minute,
a compact group, vociferous and full of curiosity.
In those times panics were common, and few days passed
without some city or other registering in its archives an
event of this kind. There were nobles, who made war against
each other; there was the king, who made war against the
cardinal; there was Spain, which made war against the
king. Then, in addition to these concealed or public, secret
or open wars, there were robbers, mendicants, Huguenots,
wolves, and scoundrels, who made war upon everybody.
The citizens always took up arms readily against thieves,
wolves or scoundrels, often against nobles or Huguenots,
sometimes against the king
