MR.STEVENSON'S YEAR 13 LESSON [5th NOV 10]: Homework.

The Goth slaves [students] were introduced to a banquet of POE. Students were encouraged to explore the 'Gothic style' through Poe. Students were encouraged to move beyond a consideration of the Gothic as a collection of simplistic conventional devices and Poe's 'Tell Tale Heart' was decapitated/deconstructed. Feedback was impressive with TC delivering so much quality feedback that the rest of the class became mute.

Homework: Big session next week when Dracula goes head to head with Wuthering Heights as we search for the key attributes of each text...Gothic or not.
