So I'm doing Coleridge for Romanticism, and our teacher told us that if we do Ancient Mariner, that counts as two poems. So instead of doing 3 poems, we could just do Ancient Mariner and something else.

Just checking that this is allowed before I go failing Ext. one :drink:

=/ I didn't know that. I know that two of Coleridge's poems counts as one text.

Is she saying that because it's long? :confused:

Sounds strange

Not sure. Our school brought in an English teacher, who's a hsc marker, and is married to a hsc marker, and she said "Coleridge is one text, so if you do two of his poems, that's only one text"

but I always thought they were two separate ones

There is no specific set limit...

You just have to make sure you have explored each text (a poet is considered 'one text') in enough depth

I'm doing limetree and frost for Coleridge
Ode to Nightingale, Autumn and Fancy for Keats
a reaallllly long poem by Goldsmith
and a painting :)

Just make sure there is textual evidence in every second sentence and you're set!

Good luck! xx

A demand of the syllabus is that you explore the module through a variety of forms and mediums.
3 poetry + 1 painting = not the best recipe for success.

I personally am doing a novel, a poet, a short story and a closet drama.
