Re: History & Memory - Related Texts Everyone thinks of Schindler's List by Steven Spielberg. Some alternatives for film: Shoah - Claud Lanzmann - was going to use it, but I can only get the first dvd. A Very Long Engagement - Jean-Pierre Jeunet Good Bye, Lenin! (one I'm using, very good) -...

For the module c, my teacher pretty much said: "I chose history and memory for selfish reasons. I think it's interesting, so I'm inflicting it on you, but I'm glad that I won't be tested on it. Also, we get shiny new books, how 'bout that?" And for module a: "there are certain paths you have to...

Also for BR, the recognition that the absence of nature is a negative thing: "A chance to begin again in a golden land of opportunity and adventure. Let's go to the colonies!" - the blimp ad. I thought I'd add on, it could be helpful.

I don't really have a thesis set in stone, but I usually go along the lines of The Fiftieth Gate showing the conflict between history and memory, that both get influenced and altered by various things, and that it's also a learning experience for Baker, who realizes that he cannot reconcile h&m.

Heh, I get good marks for ITW, last assessment was 27/30 written the night before. /gloating, I'll get to helping now. It makes things a lot easier if you think of "in the wild" as the removal of familiarity, just be sure to provide a definition of your own understanding of itw in your intro...

I can remember them all (yes, even Byzantium), so I'm just going to see what the question is. But I usually use The Second Coming and Sailing to Byzantium, because they're the ones I can read into most and manipulate.

As Lordie said, the Antichrist. The "rough beast" is the Antichrist masquerading as Christ when the world has fallen into disarray and the people are looking for a savior with false hope. "the ceremony of innocence is drowned" is a reference to baptism, and generally points to religious...

CSU... I hope.

Carol? As bad and un-spontaneous as it sounds, I'm going to run around, sleep, and read whatever the hell I want.

I used to use nice pens, the decent sort of gel ones, because they leave ink on the page in stead of scratching away (yes, I'm very particular about my pens). But my teachers told me to stop. I already write really fast and quite messily, so anything other than generic ball-points just goes...

It's vulgar, but a stomach bug has been going around my family, which combined with nerves... well, let's just say I was cautious about having coffee or fruit and nearly fell asleep in AOS while hoping the need for the toilet wouldn't come. With that, the flu, and I was bedridden for most of the...

Ah, I love my English teacher now... he always made us use three related texts for assignments so that we could choose the ones that fit the question best. Having said that, I messed it up. But (as lots of people have said, but I just can't resist restating things), I think as long as you know...

Oh dear...

Only 2 hours and 40 minutes now! Time for last-minute cramming... Good luck everyone!

Ah, that makes it clearer. Thank you!

This question's been bugging me for ages. The 2001 Hornsby Girl's trial ( http://www.boredofstudies.org/courses/maths/2u/2001_Maths2_T_Hornsby_q.pdf ), question 10 c) is: Observe that: 1= 1 3x= x + 2x 5x^2 = x^2 + 2x^2 + 2x^2 7x^3 = x^3 + 2x^3 + 2x^3 + 2x^3 9x^4 = x^4 + 2x^4 + 2x^4 + 2x^4 +...

At my old high school, the engineering class took their teacher's Jag apart, moved it to an upstairs classroom and put it back together. I wish my grade could've done something decently funny like that... instead we resorted to string across the stairs, that sort of lameness.

3 girls. One of which almost never shows up. It wasn't unusual to be sitting in uncomfortable silence with the teacher by myself.

As with writing anything well, practice it! Write answers to past papers and shove them at your teacher again and again, and LISTEN TO THE FEEDBACK! (Of course, it is more likely to work if you ask nicely...) Also, when writing, keep an eye on the tone of your work and try to keep it...

:lol: I just got back from a Library book sale... ehehe. Got any book that took my fancy (and that I could get to without knocking old ladies in the head) while they were cheap :D I got: Slaughterhouse 5 - Kurt Vonnegut Burning for Revenge (TWTWB Series) - John Marsden Interfaces - an anthology...
