No Sugar Essay : Challenging our Values - 4 views

  • This essay is thought to be the truest “borderline” A/B essay in the booklet
  • As a timed essay it displays good control of paragraphing and quite sound sentence structure along with a fine grasp of the text and the concepts of the syllabus.
  • In each paragraph, the writer of this essay draws attention to particular aspects of the text, particularly characterisation, to show the means by which a text can influence our view of life, and the concluding sentences attempt to relate these techniques to specific ideas which the text encourages.

Gwen Harwood Gender Analysis - 2 views

  • The patriarchy of the society within the context of which poet Gwen Harwood constructed her poetry, is observed, sometimes criticized and often challenged in the collection of poems found in the text 'Gwen Harwood, Selected Poems'. The representation of the images of men, women and gender differences to which a society consciously or unconsciously subscribes are captured through her writings.

      I think this is a little awkward - as though it is trying to sound more intelligent than it is - but it certainly gives you something to think about. When writing your own essays you should consider that, despite being female Harwood is writing in a male field for a male audience.

How to Write a Character Analysis Essay | eHow.com - 1 views

  • Define your chosen character in terms of whether he is the protagonist (hero), antagonist (villain), supporting player (a helpmate of either the hero or villain) or a catalyst. A catalyst character (also referred to as an agent for change) often does not participate directly in any of the action, but instead fulfills the role of inspiring the lead character to take up a cause or quest he might otherwise not have pursued (for example, Spider-Man's kindly uncle who gets killed early in the story would fit this definition).
  • Pay sharp attention to the subtext of your character's actions and what they really say about him.
  • Discuss the character's interactions with others and whether the character treats them as superiors, peers or subordinates. Assess whether these interactions are consistent with or contrary to your expectations of their assigned roles.

  • Look for the symbolism of objects associated with the character and discuss (1) why these objects are important, and (2) what they say about the owner's personality, memories and vulnerabilities.
