Hi all,
Well, I'm not quite sure if Friday's lesson is going to go ahead - the weather forecast does not look good - but if so, here's what I'd like us to achieve. I know I've not set you your Keats presentations homework yet, and I'm actually going to wait a little while for this, giving us a chance to get the groups properly sorted. I think we should get going with EL, certainly before I go off on paternity leave, which could be any time (yikes). Therefore:
- We'll aim to understand the various narrative approaches available to novelists, and the advantages or uses of each.
- We'll then apply this to looking at the opening of Enduring Love, considering how McEwan begins his narrative and looking for links to the work we've done on Keats.
- We'll also consider the theme of science / rationality vs art / religion / emotion, which we've looked at with Keats and which is continued by McEwan
Hope to see you in the morning, and that you all enjoyed the unexpected day off!
Mr Boulter
