bro idk if im dumb or how tf do u even answer this question for mod a

"composers make the original texts "live" in new ways through knowledge of the past author and reimagining of values and contexts"
cuz wtf u mean knowledge of past author

omg i literally just had a look at that question. idk if im right at all but i thinks just talk about the context of the past author, e.g. religious influences of shakespeares writing for example?

 

[banigul@30]

Ooh me too those are my main 3

sameee

 

[Hehehe22]

preludes and rhapsody are literally the same poem it was so hard making them sound different when prepping bc they have literally the same things,, fuck off w this oeuvre shit

Exactly, the only difference is that preludes emphasises the circularity of time, whilst rhapsody is just about its inevitability + fancy stuff about lunar synthesis

 

[C2H6O]

Oh yeah ummm I’m praying for Rhapsody, preludes, love song of J Alfred prudrofk anything but magi!

how are you guys hating on magi its the most straightforwardly analysable one

 

[Hehehe22]

how are you guys hating on magi its the most straightforwardly analysable one

Exactlyyy I do Prufrock + Hollow Men + Magi because it shows a progression the best

I kinda feel like replacing prufrock with preludes tho

bro same i cant memorise or write that sounds way too smart LMAOO

forget the weird time and memory sucking souls stuff. just do urban decay and talk about the contrast between the manmade (lamp) and the natural (moon). the lamp is given authority and narrates as it sputters and mutters and says this one really fucking long sentence of dialogue. the moon is described in this really ugly (i forgot how- i wanna so something about crooks or wrinkles? idk) as you creep toward the last page of the poem (you can interpret this in whatever way you want - which is good because you can just flip it to answer the question). so the moon is like the victim, the lamp is just stomping over everything and the moon is seen as this evil been with her face crust and evil lunar incantations. idk

Yaaa I think it’s quite easy since it’s comparative but my critical study is worth 10% and the others are worth 5% so I’m lowk prioritising

my mod b is 15% and mod a, c and paper 1 are 5%. like my common mod essay was literally 2.5% why did i even try at that point lol

 

[lunaaaa4403]

straight up i just dont get it LMAO

have you tried reading it yet

 

[Study to success]

ok guys I kind rushed it cause I should be doing more productive stuff but yeah It's basically done

 

[zodiacocean]

its about spiritual renewal and transformation. it showcases the struggles that arise with spiritual transformations with references to 'death' meaning like death of old values/beliefs/systems. also shows how individuals feel alienated when they let go of these ideas etc

oh period okay maybe i just dont want to talk about anglocatholicism..... im so worried about doing poorly on account of not properly hitting the textual integrity element since we never had an assessment on mod b

Just draw links between the poems casually and talk about "stylistic integrity" and you'll be fine

Also a useful point is that they're all about some sort of journey, but the only one that gets anywhere is Magi

yeah okay ive done all that hopefully i'll be okay. the weighting on mod b is insane it's such a hard unit

 

[reniiiblaseee]

guys pls i need genuine advice i already memorised my creative should i memorise my discurisve or no i dont feel like it and i think it wont be asked it might be an option i need to memorise mod b

 

[reniiiblaseee]

nah just memorise mod b

okay thx im just scared if they ask for discurisve

 

[Study to success]

Ok I'm done with the bos fan fiction. I just need to get to 2000 messages

 

[C2H6O]

ooh im doing that with preludes instead of prufrock

 

[zodiacocean]

def work on mod b more. you can always fiddle w your imaginative to make it discursive in a worst case scenario it's def not worth memorising both

 

[C2H6O]

straight up i just dont get it LMAO

oh its just a metaphor for the search for spiritual transcendence, the magi's journey is the journey of one seeking Christ
