For some reason I'm actually feeling worse about the WW1 synoptic (Friday ) than Measure for Measure / Lyrical Ballads, although I'm probably better on WW1.
I'll be okay for the part a) question but I'm worried about b) because my wider reading is woefully inadequate, so I need to get as many quotes and ideas in my head as I can by friday. I have Regeneration by Pat Barker but I haven't read it yet - can anyone who's read it tell me whether it's worth hastily reading at such a late stage?
After that I'll be focusing on Measure for Measure / Lyrical Ballads. I'm going to read both through again and make more notes mainly on themes, and try to remember some quotes. Damned closed book exams!
Does any one have any idea what this exam is going to be on this year? like the poems or extracts or even the question? because for my as module for spies someone seemed to know the exact question!!!! mmmm forgot to thank them for that!!! but if any one knows it would be greatly appreciated????

some usefull qoutes would be nice too i need examples typical of women poetry, like the reminicing and the sense of loss and then typical male poetry in the early period of the 1st world war like Brooke and John McCrae, you know like the patriotic depictions then i also need the grusome depictions that are typical in the latter stages of ww1 poetry like form Owen and Sassoon and Rosenberg any thing else that i have missed aswell would be good!!!
o sorry my exam is the war texts, poetry and prose thing! sorry i dont really know what the exact title is! its the a2 one and spies was easy i had to do wise children twice before i decided to change to spies!

Hi i'm doing the WW1 synoptic and Hamlet and Lyrical Ballads. I've read Pat Barker's Regeneration and it was probably the best war novel i've read - it's just shows what it was like at Craiglockhart. My teacher told me that you don't have to be able to quote from other sources you just have to be able to reference to them! If this is true if we get a text which shows mental disturbance because of war we can reference to Regeneration and just say what they both show. Personally i think you would be better just reading a summary of the novel and looking at other literature so you have a wider knowledge to cross reference to. Hope this helps :s I really wish the other paper wasn't closed book! I don't know any quotes for it yet and i really need to reread Lyrical Ballads what themes are you going to focus on for them?
Get the Hamlet york notes. I def have ww1 on friday and unit4 the next week. I have a nasty combo of lyrical ballads and hamlet; feeling okay for hamlet but lyrical ballads not at all.
Hi i have hamlet and lyrical ballads as well and i'm really not looking forward to lyrical ballads either! Thank you so much for pointing out this thread to me its sooo good
