hamlet/RAGAD...appearance VS reality (2 Viewers)

[p00_p00]

so wat are u ppl using for ur arguments in transformations?

As in what has Stoppard transformed:

lets use an example

2001 HSC

How has the composer of the contempoary text used the earlier text to say something new?


Well im using 2/3 themes
1) Death
2) Destiny
3) Human condition

and then ill explain how hes done it, whats hes transformed in terms of genre etc.

Do u ppl think thats enugh?

there is also an illusion of control...hamlet appears to have control, but really he doesn't (ie fate has tied him to his destiny) but in R+G, they have no control, and stoppard exposes this and makes a comment on modern society in general

i dunno..i read that in some study guide..?

i think u got it from me essay - u told me it was really good. or was that donne? i dunno... it was one of them - coz i too, talked about apperance vs reality

Appearance vs reality is also shown in the technique of metatheatre (the actors knowing this is a play), this is blurring the lines between what in life is real and what is acting.
