World Literature Assignment

Suggestions for World Literature Assignment #2 Following is a list of possible topics for your paper; you are not limited to these, but please get approval of a different or variant topic. Assignment 2 A: Comparative Study This assignment consists of a comparative study based on one world literature work studied in Part 1, Part 3 or Part 4 of the course, and one language A1 work chosen from any part of the course. Unlike assignment 1, this assignment MUST NOT BE BASED ON TWO WL works. The world literature work chosen for this assignment must not be one previously used for assignment 1.
Assignment 2B:Imaginative or Creative Assignment This assignment consists of an imaginative or creative piece of writing. It may be based on a study of one world literature work, or on a combination of a world literature work and a language A1 work chosen from any part of the course. The world literature work chosen can be a work studied in Part 1, Part 3 or Part 4 of the syllabus but must not be one previously used for assignment 1. This assignment must be preceded by a statement of intent that will be included in the total number of words.
The statement of intent is an essential part of this type of assignment and allows candidates to make explicit their perception of an author’s imagination, values and techniques. Here are some suggestions: ?Comparison of critical approaches (such as Freudian and feminine) ? Interior monologue of a key character ?Monologue ?Add or insert a scene in the play. ?Focus on a minor character ?Compare minor characters in two works ?Comparison of attitudes in two works, such as acceptance of one’s approaching death ? Recurring motifs in a work ?Commentary on author’s choice of title(s) ?Social criticism ?A further passage in the style of the author Letter from a character to author, protesting some aspect of the character/play ? An editorial defending the work to a censorship committee This assignment allows candidates to: ?demonstrate the skills of imaginative or creative writing ? focus on a particular literary aspect of interest and explore this imaginatively and in a variety of ways ? show an appreciation of the cultural elements relevant to the selected aspect ? demonstrate both explicit (in the statement of intent) and implicit (in the creative piece) awareness of the imagination, techniques and values of the author(s) on whose works the assignments is based.

Assignment 2C: Detailed Study Assignment 2C consists of a detailed study based on an aspect of ONE WORLD LITERATURE work studied in Part 1, Part 3 or Part 4 of the syllabus. However, this must not be a work previously used for assignment 1. The assignment could take the form of a formal essay or a commentary or analysis of a key passage. This assignment allows candidates to: ?demonstrate the skills of close reading and detailed analytical writing ? show an appreciation of the cultural elements relevant to the analysis
