For section A Antigone 5 marker - i basically wrote the whole lead up cus the mark schemes are really odd in that they give marks for you telling whole story of the play it seems xD
10 marker - loads of context, Pericles, pro polis, how the myth was based on true story and the law of Athens about not burying traitors and him being a good leader blah blah
20 marker - I did nomos vs dike, polis vs oikos, state vs law of the gods, the use of stycomythia and the lead up to this moment ie. revelation of it being Antigone who is creons niece. But then I used the counter argument that the turning point was creon realising what he's done after Tiresias tellS him his child will die, and his anagnorsis
40 marker - forgiveness. I talked a lot about aristotles poetics, and the importance of catharsis, and how some plays structurally conformed, ie. Hippolytus, satisfying ending, but others didn't ie. Medea was she is seemingly forgiven by the gods with a dues ex machine for what the audience would have seen as unforgivable. Then I talked about the use of forgiveness is characterisation, so creon in Antigone when he has nobody left to forgive him, the emotive note Hippolytus ends on, Oedipus doesn't deserve forgiveness as he didn't do anything wrong it was fate. I then discussed characters that shouldn't be forgiven such as phaedra and Aphrodite.
I could've used an extra half an hour and I don't think I quoted once! Oh well, onto the Aeneid!
