Elective 1: Representing People and Politics

In this elective, students explore and evaluate various representations of people and politics in their prescribed text and other related texts of their own choosing. They consider the ways in which texts represent individual, shared or competing political perspectives, ideas, events or situations. Students analyse representations of people’s political motivations and actions, as well as the impact political acts may have on individual lives or society more broadly. In their responding and composing, students develop their understanding of how the relationship between various textual forms, media of production and language choices influences and shapes meaning.

Students choose one of the following texts as the basis of their further exploration of the representations of people and politics.


~ House of Cards ? TV Show
~All the King’s Men (1949)
~All The President’s Men (1976)


I'll get back to you with other related texts but have a look at these ones..

They're great, thank you!
I was thinking/hoping to find an article in the media. For example, Muslims and their representation of Islam society + Al Jazeera etc.
Or something about the Romani Gypsies? Hmmm.

I did this for Belonging last year and used Edward Scissorhands.

You could also look into organisations such as Wikileaks/Anonymous?

If you want some media article which is overdramatised check out fox news or a current affairs..

What type of text/literature do you like?

Do you prefer television shows or movies, or novels or even poetry?

I'm doing The Crucible as well, thanks for the suggestions BLIT2014. If a news article or radio interview is used, would it be best to have a set of them in order to have one that best suits the question?

You'll want to have at least 2 texts incase they specify at least 2

Depends on the length of the article I suppose, you can pm it to me or post it on a new thread...
