hey i still don't understand the questionwhat did the question actaully mean??i talked about funeral scene and the conflcting perspectives on the character and value of lepidusam i right?
and what was with the diverse..?? was it diverse on opinions..??

[WASP]

it was a ridiculous question. not sure they know what it means

[Doctor Jolly]

Ugh ... I'm not too sure but that's not what I wrote about. I wrote: 'Representations of the personality Julius Caesar in an array of texts suggest that while no clear objective view of Caesar is possible, they all represent him as important to Rome. In William Shakespeare's Julius Caesar, through the creation of a spectrum of characters who either support or object to his assissation this idea is made clear.' Then I added my one related and talked in JC about how these characters gave 'diverse and provocative insights' as they all were coloured by personal concerns and inevitably conflict. Somewhere along those lines.

Actualy I thought it was a pretty good question and pretty generic. I argued that because conflicting perspectives are shown the text is more diverse and we gain insights into the chracters. I talked about the opinions to Caesar using funeral scene and scene 1 which I compared to my related then I talked about Brutus conflicting within himself which i compared to another related

I found this question the hardest.. I still don't really know what they were asking. I just wrote about conflicting perspectives and how they're represented like the techniques structure and how it's an effective technique.. Like Antony's repetition of the word honourable is effective cause its sarcasm and he's clearly mocking Brutus and it's a technique still used today blah blah. Come to think of it, I don't think I answered the question at all :S ... Ahh wells, NO MORE ENGLISH EVERRRRRR!!!

ur essay seems so much similar to mine..especialy the techniquesi talked about the techniques because i didn;t understand the questionso i just slipped in how the use of language techniques develop the personality (random) of the characters at the end

[boganxcore]

this question was so easy for me! exactly how i prepared essay points, it was great!

[jassono]

Far I love english so much, belonging was a kick in the nads, in its surprise but it was still a superb exam

"Cocaine is a hell of a drug"
I took it to mean, there are conflicts of perspectives, obviously with anything
The differing means of representing these conflicts, thats easy thats the whole module
By proffering these many facets of representation, the author asks the audience to acknowledge the deeper wisdom in the text, rather than the superficial conflicts of personalities, but rather, how we, Shakespeare, and the characters use rhetoric and oratory skills to persuade others-it invokes debate about coercion and the tools we use to persuade others
(Which is perfect because my module b, critical study was george orwells essays, and if its taught me anything, is that language and a shrewd manipulation of language is used as a coercive tool)
In my related texts, the differing perspectives cast light upon political ideals and internal moral decisions


They took our derbs

[kanux]

the question was pretty straight forward, liked this one the most out of all sections.

[oxyray]

I wrote about Shakespeare's bias representation of personalities which generate diverse and provocative insights. Pretty much just how Antony, Casca and Cassius unfold Caesar's character to be a demanding dictator and a tyrant, thus manipulating his audience..... yeah. ran out of time, i thank BOS for their "atleast ONE other related text" !!! otherwise, oh boy.

[bozzzzz]

the diverse part is just in reference to like the differing views that arise

the provocative insights i referred to like how it provokes different emotions and perspectives through the different information given to the reader and characters

pretty good questions for the whole exam though

True to that! I was considering on doing another related text, but it actually took me 25mins to write about Caesar (talking about Flavius & Murellus, Cassius, Brutus, Shakespeare's own view and Antony) took me alot longer than it did at home. Thank god for that AT LEAST ONE.

[HailSatan]

For the provocative part, I wrote how Antony's sarcastic comments on Brutus' character, such as he is not actually 'honourable', were provocative... And then just wrote a bunch of other bullshit.

[trafficjam]

yeah... i thought the question was a bit dodgy at first.. but i ended up talkin about Antonys speech and the effect on the plebians for the provocative part and Brutus' solliloquy by contrast gives a diverse perspective... not to sure on it tho i found it hardest of the 3 modules.

[Piratefishy]

TBH, i just made shit up. I talked about how Shakespeare uses a play format to present a fictional representation of a factual account of conflict to make it appeal to an elizabethan audience, using allusions etc to the elizabethan era and how that led to 'insight' into shakespeare's context, and also how shakespeare uses each of the four major characters to symbolise an aspect of conflict eg. Caesar is the catalyst of conflict in terms of him just being there, Cassius represents to population that dislike him based on power/envy, Brutus is the epitome of the Roman nobleman, trying to do what's best for Rome and Antony is the typical supporter of Caesar (despite him being totally wicked and self-interested)....it was all ladida bullshit :P
