HJ:) Posted April 10, 2009 Report Share Posted April 10, 2009 Mine is ' How Gregor and Mersault in the Outsider and the Metamorphosis act as a tragic hero which leads them to their own fate' Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeStijl Posted April 11, 2009 Report Share Posted April 11, 2009 Oh my goodness...World Lit papers. It feels like ages since I've written them!For World Literature I, I discussed how family relationships develop the themes in Black Rain and Like Water for Chocolate. For WLII, I decided to do an epilogue to One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich, because I would have rather stuck pins in my eyeballs than write another comparative essay. *laughs* Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chesire_Cat Posted April 12, 2009 Report Share Posted April 12, 2009 We're still deciding, however, we wrote a "fake" World Lit paper and mine was "Setting as a mean of confinment in "A Doll's House" and "Lord of the Flies". Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tilia Posted April 12, 2009 Report Share Posted April 12, 2009 We haven't started with them either, but I have some ideas about comparing mothers in Medea and Like Water for Chocolate Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
laryxle Posted April 12, 2009 Report Share Posted April 12, 2009 We got told about them a couple of weeks ago and told to start formulating topics, I think mine will be on The School For Wives and Antigone. I've got a few topics, I either want to look at the madness of the antagonists or the use of language features. My teacher told me that it is recommended that we do an essay with a specific language feature in the topic, but I prefer my topics that focus on characters :/ Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hanz Posted April 12, 2009 Report Share Posted April 12, 2009 Mine is the Significance and usage of Onomatopoeia( soung imagery) and Tone in The outsider by Albert Camus and Metamorphosis by Franz Kafka =]] Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

CommeDesEnfants Posted June 17, 2009 Report Share Posted June 17, 2009 Mine is "the change in values of the main characters in Ivan Denosivich and Metamorphosis." Or something like that. It's Assignment 1, which has yet to be written... ^^ Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sweetnsimple786 Posted June 17, 2009 Report Share Posted June 17, 2009 For WL1, I compared the female antagonists in So Long a Letter and Like Water for Chocolate and basically defended their actions. Slightly controversial, lots of fun haha Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Matter Posted June 17, 2009 Report Share Posted June 17, 2009 (edited) For World Lit 1 I did narration in Black Rain and One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich. Then for World Lit 2 I went to the creative writing of Antigone's diary from Sophocles' Play rather than another essay format assignment. I dislike essays.

Sandwich Posted June 22, 2009 Report Share Posted June 22, 2009 The significance of death in the Leopard and Antigone.WL2 I just picked a random chapter of Madame Bovary and analysed it, then titled it something like "the significance of chapter X in Madama Bovary to the rest of the novel" Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
teresad Posted July 17, 2009 Report Share Posted July 17, 2009 Mine is Paradoxes through subversive actions in Allende´s house of spirits and Puig’s Kiss of the Spiderwoman. Funny thing is I'm actually fixing it up right now and finishing it :/ Handing it in in September... Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flippy Posted July 20, 2009 Report Share Posted July 20, 2009 "The Role of Changing Women" in Miss Julie by August Strindberg and The Sailor Who Fell From Grace With the Sea by Yukio Mishima (Mishima's novel title certainly helped up my word count). For my WLII I wrote a pastiche of Banana Yoshimoto's Kitchen. Believe it or not, I actually had fun writing the second one because it was like creative writing. Hurray!

electropenguin Posted July 20, 2009 Report Share Posted July 20, 2009 I decided to compare/contrast and evaluate the effective use of pathetic fallacy in Yukio Mishima's The sailor who fell from grace with the sea and William Golding's Lord of the Flies.For my LM2 I'm analysing whether Kafka was a masochistic or sadistic author when writing (elements of) The Metamorphosis.

I did mine on Lysistrata and Les Belles Soeurs. We had a choice between the three: Antigone, Lysistrata and Les Belles Soeurs. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
decemberflower Posted July 24, 2009 Report Share Posted July 24, 2009 I have only written WLA 1 and it is on Medea and Death and the Maiden (my A1 language is German...). And I focused on differences and similarities between Medea and Paulina as being victims... Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
