Will the HSC English paper markers have some knowledge or have read the prescribed texts that are being analysed in the essays they are marking?

They will have been asked to indicate which of the presribed texts they are comfortable with marking so the answer is yes,.

Haha na I see this as an advantage. Like since you know the marker already knows the text, then you would avoid story telling in your essays and jump straight to the analysis
