Hi Everyone,

Im doing changing perspectives, and i thought the film 'The Nutty Professor' would be a suitable relevant text. I just need one more text for changing perspectives. Any suggestions?

Hey, I have an essay on changing self due in about a week or so. Im looking for a text (a book) that not many people has done, but that's also interesting, so I won't be bored out of my brain reading through it. Not classics, more like Ender's Game etc.

Any help would be really appreciated! :wave:

You're in luck. We did "The Crucible" last year and here are some ideas to get you started:
*major element of odd one out
-basis of theocracy throughout
-emerging and formation of groups in society
-hypocracy
-scapegoating
-individuals against the system (also individual vs majority)
-parallel with the socio-political context of the said text , i.e namely Sentor Joseph McCarty's drive to cleanse America of communist spies
I hope that helped
:)

Thanks for all the suggestions guys, but I'm not sure if alot of them really relate to my topic "Changing Worlds". So far I've only got:
A whole new world (Aladdin)

Any other suggestions? Preferbly a visual but anything would do (besides a poem). Thanks in advance!

do you reckon Nelson Mandela's "A long walk to freedom" is a changing self text? I'm thinking of using it for one big arse assessment i have coming up. I'm also using "a room with a view" (film version) and i need a visual one, any ideas??

I'm doing:

Straight Lines by silverchair
and the films Little Miss Sunshine and American History X.
I've gotten some good ideas for mine through this thread, take a look through all the pages.

films:
  • life as a house
  • saved
  • the breakfast club
  • pride and prejudice (book also)
  • sisterhood of the travelling pants (book also). actually, number 2 would prob be better for this
  • 16 candles

Hey,

We're doing changes of perspective for our prelim course (even though the coursework is going to change next year =( ) and we have to find a poem or short story that we could annotate and write an analysis on.

Does anyone have suggestions about a poem that has a fair amount of techniques to write on to fill 2 A4 pages =D??
