What makes a text Romantic? Go decide.

No. Anyways... Romanticism does not entirely revolve around nature. Basically, the Romantics (the composers at the time) were fed up with the social, cultural, political, ideological, and whatnot, changes occurring at the time (of the Industrial Revolution) but they weren't entirely...

Did you do Austen's Emma in year 11? Now... that was hating.

me and my friends played handball a bit while waiting between exams during the end of year 11 exam block. It was perfect for getting rid of all the anxiety that was bothering us - studying instead would have been a waste. And then, when we came back for year 12 - guess what? we played...

A Big Boy did it and Ran Away - Christopher Brookmyre

Power - in various forms. I'd love to elaborate but I'm a bit tired. :(

Read it. Enjoyed it. Wuthering Heights is better. (in my opinion, of course)

These are the books that I added to my bookshelf one night last week: (my biggest 'haul') Homer: -The Iliad -The Odyssey -Collected Works of William Shakespeare The Bronte sisters: -Wuthering Heights -Jane Eyre -The Tenant at Wildfell Hall The entire canon of Jane Austen: -Pride and...

QFT. It's a book series written by a female author, for a female audience, and then directed by a female director, yet it contains quite a shocking layer of misogynist overtones. Not to mention Stephanie Meyer is a Mormon and her belief is represented in the series.

yeah, you do seem overly concerned with the autobiographical aspects of the novel. And yes, underline texts every time you include the title. But this doesn't apply to every text. For this module, however, Frankenstein and Blade runner always need to be underlined (or italicized if using word...

Forty-two!

I think it's awesome that you enjoyed it as much as I did. About my suggestion though, I was aiming at the Twilight fanatics... On an added note, I feel like reading it again. (after the HSC, that is, when I have the time)

She could be right... Cause Romanticism is a package full of ideas, but not all ideas at once. All that stuff on trees, freedom, passion, emotions, etc, won't necessarily always go into the same package. Which is what makes your query difficult. For example, you can say that Harry Potter has...

Posession: A Romance was written in the 1990s. It is one of the prescribed texts for the EEX1 Romanticism course. Half the novel, however, imitates the language (prose and poetry) of the Romantic period. Having to imitate the language of the 19th century Romantics is bullshit, imo. It...

English. I have a 10cm high stack of printed-out notes on my desk. Most of the information is repetitive and only less than 5% of the notes offer any original and interesting insight into the topic. Also, not only is my maths stack shorter (my work included) but the information is also more...

lol, that Pierotte guy in that thread got so disappointed by the career. If you try and look, there's a thread similar to this one (about kids wanting to do architecture), Pierotte and some others were getting giddy and idealizing about their futures in architecture. When he got to Uni, he...

Dr. Strangelove

So, I'm reading this at the moment. The story is lost on me - I dislike it - but I'm loving the writing style and the frequent changes in form. It's unique in my collection of what I read. In relation to Romanticism, it is a commentary on the period and its writers. Compared to what I've...

Where can I read the marking notes? Thanks.

I disagree.
