....i'm having some serious trauma getting this module.

i dont know what it is about it i'm finding so hard....

it should be simple right?

theme. like power.

what does the reading say about the theme?
like shakespearean reading says that a patriarchal monarchical power system should be followed, and defiance of it leads to chaos.

this is shown...
in act one scene one, when king lear intends to "divide in three our kingdom" where the deviance from normal syntax.

great. now what? that takes up about four lines. hardly what i call anything close to a paragraph.

i dont get it...
we do: literary qualities (ideas and how they're conveyed through content, language etc) --> how these are read in different ways (interpretations) --> different productions that show these.

AND then SOMEHOW the characterisation of various characters comes into that.

like the 2006 hsc question, how the freak was that from the english syllabus? and some of the catholic trials are just so random.

and i dont get how i'm meant to go about doing this.
