i am interested to know.. did people from other schools find the prompt went nowhere?
could be just us..lol could be just me, but i had not even looked at victims... grrr so much work, so little opportunity to apply it
-
I did The Crucible, The Secret River and war torn countries. I found I had so damn much to write on, just didn't have the time to write it
-
Using the Secret river and the Crucible I wrote on how the victims of conflict themselves can represent the mistakes of the past and can ultimately lead to a better understanding of how to approach conflicts ect. Also that victims in conflict can reveal certain attitudes and ways of dealing with conflict that result in positive outcomes..
I dont know.. I'm hoping its relevant.

yeah i pretty much did that. also talked about perpetrators as opposed to victims, and how they shed light on human nature and motivations.

I wrote on intrapersonal victims of conflict, and personal conflicts such as abigale and elizibeth..
-
Crucible:
extrapersonal conflict between theocracy and individuals
inner conflict of consicence - hale & proctor
interpersonal - abigail, Putnam, Danforth
Prompt was alright..
-
nup im with you pip , it was shit
haha
-
But Abigail was not a real victim in my opinion... i did letters to Abigail from members of Salem like John Proctor, Mary Warren and Rebecca Nurse showing what they got out of the hurt Abigail caused so for John Proctor being on death row i spoke about how he learnt to be a noble and honest man telling the truth which in turn landed him where he is and with Rebecca Nurse i spoke about how she never once doubted herself and her beliefs which is what puritanism is all about and she hoped people of Salem would learn from her death.. etc
-
I wrote a speech for Remembrance Day where I commemorated not only the heroes of war but also the victims whose plight reminds us to never lose sight of the liberties we seek to uphold in conflict...at least that was the idea. The finished product was shit :S
-
I was so happy with the prompt, out of all of them it was amongst the top two or three that suited all the work and study I had put in for it.
Very lucky. The original poster got the short end of the stick here...
