we have to bring 3 pieces of material (obtained from only the internet) that are related to gwen harwood and the content that being studied in module B. in our writing task, we have to 'reflect on the effeciveness of these materials in developing your own understanding of the poetry set for study'.

are there any good texts on the net for this?

(ive looked at other threads and they havent really helped me much)

There's a good interview with Harwood from the Melbourne Writers Festival some years back at

http://www.mwf.com.au/arc92harwood.html

but it doesn't have much direct information on the poems we're studying. Otherwise, there's very very little on the internet relating to Harwood.

Well its really biographical information about Gwen-well thats what i see it as. I think this assement sux0rs really bad as it is so ambiguous. I think then english department is only concerned with us answering the dot point on "using technology" and "reflect own learning" and not on whether the task is full of sh*t or not :) I cant find anything either. No matter how many "idiots guide" to Jung i read, i still dont understand.. Damn you english faculty :mad:

basically, criticisms u find on gwen harwoods ideas utilised in her poetry, eg. memory, childhood, Freud+Jung dream analysis, references to other texts (eg. King Lear in 'Father and Child'). get it?
