Context BNW and BR (1 Viewer)

Hey, I have been doing a few practice essays for Brave New World and Bladerunner. I was just wondering what is the best way to go about the context. Should I have a paragraph on the context of each text or should I intergrate issues of context with my other themes such as conumerism, technology etc.? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Depends on the question, but generally integrating it into the essay makes the whole thing flow and look good to the marker.

integrating context to essays is the way to go. you can't really deal with the issues that arise in both texts without going into context immediately if you ask me, especially blade runner, given that its postmodernist. but you should still make mention of context in introductions/conclusions...its very important for this module.

As others have said, integrate it into the essay.

I, personally, compared the two contexts (loosely I might add ) and used it to 'link' the two texts.
