[eneleon]

oo, ive been reading wild swans for funso I dunno if I can help you much.

What module is it for?

 

[babydoll_]

oh yeah. i still have some notes. id like to get rid of them if i may. add me on msn, tell me your name and if i find you worthy (or if you get to me first ) ill give you my old notes. its not much but it might help a little.

obviously my skrzynecki notes wont help much, but the wild swans/emma stuff might. i have rftg stuff too.


EDIT/ Offer retracted

also, can i get a show of hands of who goes to sefton here? im an ex sefton student and im willing to help out. im just curious how many people at sefton use bored.

 

[ms.cinderella]

in reply to babydoll:

the ppl who go to sefton high in this thread are: [cpt ans], frankie, jimmik and myself.

MissSavage29 is a fellow 'wild swan' from dubbo who has been kindly helping us =)

 

[[cpt ans]]

Wah, little Seftoners! Hello! I was one last year. Ah suckers, Wild Swans was a difficult text (although it surprisingly helps to be in Ms Repins class).

You will grow to hate the book if you haven't already. Basically it's this.

It lacks textual intergrity.

There are many possible readings in terms of:
a) Genre (sometimes it's a fictional type, sometimes family saga, sometimes historical)
b) Audience (West v East)
c) Time (90s v Now, where we aren't so anti communism)

I remember our class having lots of trouble with it, but I think it was probably my most well written essay. I would give you my notes, but errr they might recognise my work.

Hope that helps!

whats textual itnegrity?
