Literature Exam!

<< < (5/10) > >>

amycourty:
Our teacher hated satire so much that we just didnt do it as a class, but only because he reckoned it was time wasted, it didnt tie in too much with the others , etc.
hoping they dont do it though.  .. was in 07 though, so maybe IT wont be this year
..
i dont really like hm,,  elegy his picture

florallover:
i love satire :( so passionate, though it can get a little difficult to wrench things out of the second part with the 5 portraits. but yeah, i find his picture and song the hardest... thats why im trying to write on them right now, sigh

amyminchin:
It seems like my two texts are like, the least popular ones you can find.
Kinsella and Hotel Sorrento...  :smitten:

Kinsella is a total freak, but it's easy to link his poems together. Hotel Sorrento is a bit of a challenge to prepare for because there are SO many possible passages that could be on the exam. Like, every scene is loaded with relevance. Luckily, it is a short play, so there's not a huge amount of choice but yeah. ALL possibilities and SO many themes. :) I'm lucky I like it.

Avocado:
There's HEAPS of kids in my class writing on Hotel Sorrento, it's the most popular text.
My teacher's a raging feminist and spent half the term banging on about masculine dominance in Australia...so they're all hoping for a passage on Hil's oppression and the "brutalizing masculinity" of Australian culture.

will you be puttin a feminist spin on it?

lol please tell me there is an extremly low chance of it coming up this year since it was on 2007 :)

we never covered it in class, nor did i by myself, its just way too dense!

songs just like valediction.. in content.. i think
my god i need to study

but its like about separation as well isn't it,

the flea, good morrow, satire 3 part 1, the sun rising, valediction and death be not proud
are very likely NOT to be on the exam.. since they have already been this study design 2006-2007

the first three especially, one of the last 3 may pop up in a combination but doubt it.
i really hope hope hope they just avoid satire otherwise im just going to be like

.... Donne's belief in a deeper love transcending physical limitations evolved into his fervent religious inclinations as passionately addressed in Satire3.... as i did for the practice of last years :P

So that leaves...
Elegy 2 : To his mistress
His Picture
The Canonization
Song
The Anniversary
The Relic
At the Round Earth's imagined corners
A Hymn to Christ
Hymn to god.
lame they took all the good ones.. imma deff need to restudy..
