English Language and Literature AQA: Paris Anthologies...Help?

Hi, I'm studying the paris anthologies for my English lang/lit A-level but really struggling with how to answer the question which is really doing my head in because I want to get an A this year!!

If anyone's got any advice on how to answer it, it'd be much appreciated :smile:

I'd say the main way to do well on Paris is to constantly link back to context (GRAMP) which takes up a lot of the marks and use a variety of language features in your analysis so some phonology some grammar and some lexical. In your introduction to gain marks for comparisons compare genre, audience and purpose for both texts.

What does the R in GRAMP stand for? We've just been told to use GAPM

How is everyone revising anthology? Just doing questions or actually going through each text? How did you do on this question last year? What other texts are you studying?

Hi, could you explain the meaning of the acronym GRAMP?
