I have evidence but not the points i.e. i dont have what they say about mans disconnection with nature. This is a link i found between the two texts
The way in which people in both texts are controlled,

I.e. In BNW The government controls the whole region, whereas In BR the Capitalist corporations have control over the whole world which shapes the people. What can i say about mans disconnection with nature based on these two points?

i would make references to the context in which the texts were writen and how they incorporate the fears of the future for the different authors...

thats just one point- really most things can be bullshited in this topic

you can talk about concepts of nature- like the natural order of things which human beings are upsetting with their use of technology in an attempt to emulate god...

there are heaps of points like these- go thru the notes ur teacher has given u and read thru them and u will understand completely how all these things r interconnected

for comparison all you do is talk about similar ideas the authors have- the use of technology, their fears for the future, similar characters and plots (think of the savage commiting suicide and trying to find direction in the after life and batty who finds spiritual enlightenment)

when contrasting talk about the different forms of the text and how they affect the audiences response to the text (the fact that one was a book written decades ago and the other was a re-relase of a movie that only gained respect in certain circles), talk about the contexts of the authors here as well as the context of textual references, the audience of the time, the audience of today etc...

i could go on- but go thru ur notes

dont read other ppls essays- collect all the info urself and you will ace this topic
