How did everyone find that? 😨. I know i failed that collective question, I just kept saying collective absolute and inconsistencies and Shakespeare encourages subjectivity 😭.

I only had one collective experience in my quotes 😭
Nesa could have atleast made it both individually and collective

What did people say for the self narration question? It was so confusing.
Convergence of unique experiences to the generic word "journey", also how it's overused

keep in mind this is coming from a rank 160 english so don't take this too seriously

Something about undermining the true meaning of "the journey" and presenting a false view of experiences (pretty much waffle)
I waffled about how romanticising the mundane is bad but then also contradicted myself by saying the resilience towards monotony is good. Idk I just said theatre extended metaphor :headbang: .

she challenges it through her high modality and personal pronoun that established a strong pathos which ultimately invites the consideration of the challenging of adversity and therefore places an imperative upon the reader...

simile comparison to the play displays the absurd fantasy of self-narration, staccato sentences with a personal appeal, and personal pronoun

irony of him saying 'gonna go on a journey' suggests that anything can be over dramatised and hence challenges self-narration

Thoughts on this thesis:

Texts rely on the portrayal of relatable ideas pertaining to collective human experiences to enrich and expand the reader's perception of the world through this portrayal enabling the construction of ideas that explores paradoxes, anomalies and inconsistencies thus providing an understandable base to challenge assumptions and prompt reconsideration.

Then the text related one:
To a great extent, Orwell in his dystopian novel... is able to ignite ideas relating to collective human experiences regarding the fulfilment of needs in his display of how oppressive systems that curtail the fulfilment natural and basic human needs create a brutal and unliveable society. He enriches the audience's knowledge of the world thereafter in establishing a meta-fictive address of his context that creates an imperative upon the audience to protect the inherent human needs of any individual in embracing the desire to connect as an agent that enables this fulfilment of all of Abraham Maslow's hierarchy of needs (i explain these in the paragraph that follows the intro). The character of Winston, although relatable to the audience as being the most distinctly human character, is presented as a persecuted anomaly within the oppressive Oceania that therefore addresses Orwell's context meta-fictively to establish this aforementioned imperative that prompts the expansion of the audience's knowledge of the world to protect the inherent human needs of any individual as they live in "a time when thought is free…when truth exists.”

I ended up getting down 11 quotes in 5.75 pages and was able to make good links to my thesis and the question constantly, maybe forgot a couple times. Only issue is my 2nd para was half a page long but had a good link and 3 quotes. Thoughts everyone?
