btw i did q8 - SPEECHES
im also glad that they didnt say TWO speeches onlysezza899 said:Cool, yeah well there is so much you could write about those two.
I'm so glad they didn't specify a speech!
I chose love and fear. The amount of times I've heard "read and re-read the question" is phenomenal, but do you think I read the question properly? No. I didn't talk about the same emotion being used in more than one poem - will that matter too much? I hope not... I didn't really like this question, I'd been focusing on other things, not so much emotions in the poems. Luckily, the Frontline question was really good for me.nitnit said:I did harwood and the question got me at first.. but then I managed to pull something out of the hat.. "love and pain"!
what else did you guys choose as the "intense emotion" ?

"intense family relationships that captivate audiences"
i had prepared so much for the text's textual integrity, its values of natural order, etc, that was what made king lear a successful and worthy text.
so family relationships????
i only knew about one character??????
the king???
i had to fully remould my essay.
luckily i remembered SOME information on cordelia
and i vaguely remembered some things to do with kent.
oh well
its better than last year's "characterisation" question
and i am so glad they didnt specify questions on women.
because like i said.
i only know the king.
the question asked for alteast ONE intense human emotion (HARWOOD), focusing on two emotions is not wrong? is it?Abbyruth said:I chose love and fear.
