A question about frontline (1 Viewer)

[TastesGoodBut]

OK

So.. as frontline appears on two levels, it means we discus it on two levels, and discuss representations of truth on the two levels

Now... i suppose that means we have to keep in mind at all times that the characters have been GIVEN their lines, and not that they are actually saying them

So is it best to say everytime ur quoting:
"Brian is represented as saying..."
OR
"Rob Stitch et al give Brian the line______"

etc etc

In my opinion it takes up alot of valuable exam time, but in my opinion that shows the representations on the two levels etc

so what do u do?

Say it the first time (or first few times) and drop it. They'll know what you mean.

OR you could bring it up as a point you're arguing.

i read some of the comments and it said that some students failed to acknowledge that Stitch actually directed the thing and just talked about the characters... u gotta talk about both as far as i understand

yeh thats what im basing it on - examiners comments

how with julius ceaser ppl said that so and so said etc but failed to mention it was shakespeare who employhed the technique of emotive language and dialogue

i feel like the question will dictate how we talk about sitch/mike
