These two sessions considered the essay questions linked to the creature's narrative. On Wednesday we will be discussing the essay question:
'The creature is the most significant symbol in the novel.' To what extent do you agree with this statement?
I expect students to be able discuss possible content in a detailed and precise manner in the next session. Students need to be able to support their argument with specific textual reference.
In Wednesday's session we discussed the significance of the creature's final speech and on Friday we discussed the significance of Chapters 18 and 19. I gave students lots of key quotes.
HOMEWORK: Lots of reading. Students need to prepare for the essay. Students also need to be aware of the symbolic significance of The Orkneys and the significance of Victor's dream when he is being accused of murdering Henry.
WE NEED TO DISCUSS STHE SIGNIFICANCE OF SYMBOLISM ON WEDNESDAY SO BE PREPARED TO DISCUSS:
- THE BLASTED STUMP
- THE IMAGES OF FIRE AT THE CONCLUSION TO THE NOVEL
- THE SIGNIFICANCE OF LOCATION
- THE SIGNIFICANCE OF DREAMS
See you on Wednesday troops.
