Because storytelling is inherent in human nature, stories have existed throughout history. For a long time, short fiction was considered the poor relation of the novel. In the nineteenth century, however, the short story and its longer relative, the novelette or novella, were shaped as distinct art forms by Heinrich von Kleist, E. T. A. Hoffmann, Edgar Allan Poe, Nathaniel Hawthorne, Nikolai Gogol, and Guy de Maupassant. A break with the traditional stress on plotting came in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, particularly with the stories of Anton Chekhov and Joseph Conrad, James Joyce and D. H. Lawrence, Franz Kafka, and Ernest Hemingway.
