hey to all doin 'the true history of the kelly gang'. i did this for module c last year, and while at first i didnt like it so much, it actually ended up being one of my stronger essays... if i can be bothered to scan or type notes up ill put them up somewhere or email them to anyone who wants them... neway, with regards to the supplementary texts, our teacher specifically told us to stay away from ned kelly texts as its not bout him, but history and memory, and u want a variety, not just one example. i used one of plinys letters from the 79ad eruption (which i had studied in latin, but anyone could do it) and it was a really good one to use, as it had direct quotes differentiating between history and memory, and how he left out specific events as they did not benefit history, but were rather personal accounts of memory; also he quotes how time alters a person's memory... the other one i used was some documentary on 9/11, and i cant even remember what it was.. if i find my notes ill post.

for those doing ned kelly.... I finished reading the syllabus over and over coz I've been having the same problem too, and it says heaps clearly that the texts of your own choosing have to be related to the perscribed text.... i.e. for ned kelly they have to be about ned kelly e.g. sydney nolan's paintings of ned kelly or ned kelly folk songs or the film etc... and the markers are looking for a wide variety of texts so don't do like 2 photos or paintings or 2 songs or whatever.. make sure each text is a different text type to the others. hope that helps.

Like you could do the Ned Kelly paintings, they're cool, you could do "Ned Kelly" with Orlando Bloom or you could do a propoganda picture of him from the 19th century; no?

Hey limegreenqueen (and anyone else doing True History of the Kelly Gang) did your teacher tell you that you could only use supp texts that related to Ned Kelly, as opposed to just History and Memory in general?

Yeah we got told that so then you can compare how one version of kelly is portrayed compared to another version... Ihate it so hard...
