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?
sameee
Exactly, the only difference is that preludes emphasises the circularity of time, whilst rhapsody is just about its inevitability + fancy stuff about lunar synthesis
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
straight up i just dont get it LMAO
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
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
have you tried reading it yet
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
yeah okay ive done all that hopefully i'll be okay. the weighting on mod b is insane it's such a hard unit
okay thx im just scared if they ask for discurisve
ooh im doing that with preludes instead of prufrock
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
oh its just a metaphor for the search for spiritual transcendence, the magi's journey is the journey of one seeking Christ
