    Advanced Highre English Dissertation advice?
    Would I be able to write about a play and a novel for my dissertation? I was thinking Animal Farm by George Orwell and something along the lines of Lady Windermere's Fan by Oscar Wilde and commenting upon the social criticisms in both?

    The Sqa highly recommend you don't mix novels with dramas or poems etc

    Look at 1984 for animal farm maybe?

    I asked my teacher about this a few days ago and she said not to, can't remember if it was that it wasn't encouraged or that you aren't allowed to
