I did my texts in chronological order (in terms of when it was released), my first was hamlet (c. 1600), then Dickinson (mid-late 1800s) and then an artwork (early 1900s) - to help show the changes in views and ideologies and everything over time
Also quicker to underline in exam conditions
any recs for lit worlds summaries so i dont feel completely unproductive?
Real I'm so burnt out.
It’s ok just memorise it tmw morning I did that last time for trials I think and remembered
Ok great cuz this is what I'm doing so I can argue that my texts represent a continuity/development of my concepts of upheaval
doubt thered be a reflection as there was one last yr
Not much, only write anything got to do with the thesis. For example: “Shakespeare’s titular tragedy Hamlet (1600) epitomises the anti mimetic nature of art and literature through Hamlet’s paralytic mindscape, resultant of conflicting Feudal and Humanist paradigms.” But not: “Written during a period of burgeoning humanist philosophies, Shakespeare’s titular Hamlet affirms Feudal social structures such as divine preordination while simultaneously proposing the effect of Renaissance Humanist philosophy” (idk I wrote the second one on the spot)
In your intro and paragraphs you need to mention the extracts and how they relate to each of your chosen themes/texts. For example, I did elective 4 (mindscapes) and one of the themes of the extract was the idea of how people perceive themselves and the world they’re in (a prominent feature of the module description!). In one of my paragraphs I might say: “The extract affirms Frida Kahlo’s perception of self, both resultant of yet liberated from the past, expressed in a nuanced reflection on the complexity of her identity as shaped by past traumas and continued struggle”
