Anyone have any ideas of what I could use to link with Julius Caesar? I know that most texts have some sort of conflicting perspective but I need something interesting and easy to link to JC....

thanks for the help....

hey..
SIEV X is a really good conflicting perspective subject...

its about a boat of refugees that sunk in 2001..
some people think the Aus government had ships nearby and did nothing to prevent...but the Aus government remain certain that they were not involved in the refugee scandal.
look it up if you like, its interesting and provides 2 good perspectives

hope it helps..
what is your assessment task?

Look up the pictures "The Conciliation" by Benjamin Duterrau
and "The National Picture" by Geoff Parr.

The National Picture is an appropriation of The Conciliation, and I used them to link to the conflicting perspectives within JC. If you need more help with it, send me a PM.

I think that's a good suggestion- it shouldn't be too hard to search two opposing news articles.

Another good topic would be on the Henson case, an article like http://www.abc.net.au/news/stories/2...23/2253585.htm could be a good related text

I was going to do this but my teacher said i have to find a feature article, not just a news article!
But my teacher called up the BOS about using Plath's poetry to see if it was cool, but they haven't got back to her.
Edit: Oh yeah and if anyone can suggest any related texts that preferbly relate to Birthday Letters and relationships it would be deeply appreciated

so are we allowed to use two articles regarding the same topic but through diff perspectives and analyse them to use as a single piece of related text?

[aaminah]

our teacher recommended us to do films more...

There's always the option of doing Plutarch - Lives or The Fall of the Roman Empire. It's similar, but Plutarch often has a different perspective on events than Shakespeare, some of them noticeably so. The first that comes to mind is Plutarch's very different portrayal of Brutus. If you're going to use more than one related text, it probably doesn't hurt to do one that directly relates to Julius Caesar, ie. Plutarch or a film version.

Whats an example of a conflicting perspective in that film?

[JOSH.]

A news article or a Four Corners episode on Bill Henson's controversial photography from 2008.

"It's art" (perspective one) versus "it's child pornography" (perspective two).
