Word of advice to my fellow English students on tumblr: if you are thinking of writing an essay on William Blake,

DON’T

You will get so lost in his esoteric bullshit you forget what the point of your essay even was and your head hurts.

How to increase the sophistication of your textual analysis for English Essays.

Basic analysis will often read as a recount with some textual examples that are mainly generic references rather than quotes.

For example “In Macbeth as he goes mad things begin to spiral out of his control and he sees a dagger.”

Taking it a step further requires specific examples and telling your teacher why they care about them.

E.g. Macbeth’s madness is highlighted through the repeated scenes where he is unable to distinguish reality from fiction as he states “Is this a dagger that I see before me” he questions his sanity, foreshadowing the eventual downfall from his madness and involvement with the supernatural.

Taking it a step further requires you to treat the text as something that the author has created purposely, rather than characters acting randomly on a rampage.

E.g Shakespeare’s depiction of Macbeths madness begins with his vision of the dagger and his questioning of whether “Is this a dagger that I see before me”, by introducing this element to the scene Shakespeare foreshadows the eventual downfall of Macbeth from his madness as a result of his involvement with the supernatural.

To add more depth to your analysis at a HSC level, particularly in advanced English you should also incorporate author and reader context.

Shakespeare’s depiction of Macbeth’s growing madness in seeing “a dagger before me” symbolises the ethical and spiritual implications of his decision to commit the mortal sin of murder, foreshadowing to the Elizabethan audience his inevitable downfall for going against not only the chain of being, but also god, through his involvement with the supernatural. To a modern audience this element still allowed the realisation of his actions, instead positioning the hallucinations as a didactic reminder of his unethical decisions to seek power.

here, have an essay I'm writing. maybe posting it will magically finish it

Motivation is something that many highschoolers lack. It’s a common struggle, and something that everyone has experienced at least once in their lives, some more than others. If there’s a general understanding that highschoolers around the world face a lack of motivation, then what happens when we take the external motivators out of the equation? [Insert High School] has a tradition of rewarding student’s charity with extra credit, higher grades, and classroom rewards. These are the motivators that get students to put in the effort of donated money, clothes, food, anything that the community needs. Is it ethical to reward students with grades in exchange for charity if the removal of motivation stops charity altogether? If anything, keeping the exchange is ethical, or at the very least, the lesser of two evils in [Insert School District].

If it is unethical to motivate students with grades, is it also unethical to give out prizes in school assemblies? For Penny wars? Rewarding students with games, prizes, and dances for meeting the monetary goals of a Make a Wish family? The motivation of students through the exchange of grades gets them to participate in a good cause and raise donations that are sorely needed. The charity still gets done and people are helpful, donating what they can and meeting the goals set for them; therefore, it doesn’t matter what motivated it.

Allowing this exchange can help teach students that they have to work for what they want (going out of their way to donate gets them a prize = work leads to success) and working as a school creates a community for the students, encouraging them to come together and help someone who needs it. [IHS] should allow this exchange because it teaches students about putting in the effort for things they want in a way that makes it stick (donations for a fun time rather than the effort required for grades) and it helps form a community that can last.

Concern 1 (counterargument)

Concern 2 (counterargument)

Conclusion

Counterargument idea: keeping the exchange for grades could result in students slacking off when they get out of school

@azrail-has-a-vendetta do you have any ideas

Most importantly, the inner child I hid away and left to rot, crawled her way back from the deep grave---that I told myself was her final resting place. She broke ground, standing up with dirt and rust on her knees. The child’s bones crack with each step, silently speaking to me ‘I have been too long unused’. She walked with me back to my home--- she sat with me at my dinner table. My parents didn't ask who she was and why she suddenly appeared again. They sat there with a slight smile on their faces--- seemingly relieved I found her once more--- even though she was rusted and covered in dirt. Over the next few years I will have spent every day cleaning each crack, trying to scrub the dirt away, yet no amount of force will get the dirt to simply disappear. The dirt will always be there, no matter how much scrubbing one may do. But that was a trade I was willing to make.

Lines from my English essay that are just as unhinged as I am:

“If you thought I was an academic weapon, you’re wrong. It turns out, I’m just an academic victim in disguise.”

“Yep. We were in love. We just never talked about it. Ever.”

“So you know what I did? I registered him for the military. If you can’t serve my heart then go serve the country” (this one unfortunately did not make the cut)

“It’s not because I’m a bad communicator (I am) it’s because I have crippling abandonment issues”

“Enter anxious lil me”

GUESS WHO JUST WROTE A 1200 WORD ESSAY IN AN HOUR AND A HALF BEFORE GOING TO WORK

(it’s me. because i procrastinated. and it’s due in three days.)

[mkalodeas]

Oiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!

Listen up. I'm about to go on a Dorian Gray Character Analysis Rampage. Why? Simple, it's because someone decided that we were to be assessed on it for English. Which I will be writing tomorrow...(• ▽ •;) I totally did NOT procrastinate studying or anything...

Umhghhghg *cough* *cought*

Anyway, let me begin with the first character we meet.

In the novel "The Picture of Dorian Gray" written by Oscar Wilde, we are introduced to many different characters whom all have various motives and beliefs. It is through these characters that Sir Oscar Wilde debates many ideas that were scorned by people in the Victorian era.

The first character we are met with is Lord Henry Wotton (Absolute Bastard, The Bastard™[Hate this guy]), this is the character through whom Mr. Wilde displays the ideals of Aestheticism (value beauty) and Hedonism (value pleasure). He is a cold man and he views the world as a means to an end, he has no remorse for any of his actions.

(I'm not just claiming that) "...and certainly Dorian Gray was a subject made to his hand and seemed to promise rich and fruitful results." Chapter 4, page 69 (in the textbook version I own), is a quote from the book that Lord Henry Wotton makes. In fact the entire passage tells the reader how Lord Henry Wotton views the main character; as an experiment. He is a manipulative and despicable person, and he is who Mr. Oscar Wilde chooses to use as the devil's advocate for his main character.

Then there is Basil Hallward; a peaceful, artistic and honest man. Basil is the complete opposite of Lord Henry. Though he does create the infamous picture, he never meant for it to become what it did. The picture was an honest representation of what he thought of Dorian Gray and was something he put much of himself in, as he says in the novel.

Basil is the moral compass of the story and it is for that reason we do not see much of him, because the novel is not about good being triumphant over evil. It is about the error of humankind and the twisted artwork that is the human psyche. Basil is the voice of reason that Mr. Wilde incorporated into his novel.

Finally, Dorian Gray the title character. Whom is weak willed when it comes to any form of responsibility and lacks the discipline to put any action behind the promises he makes to his self-conscience. He is whom the Victorian era would recognise as the epitome of beauty and with that recognition the assumption that he could do no wrong. Beauty back in that time was associated with good and innocence, which when first met Dorian is exactly.

He is a naive and entitled young adolescent, 20 years of age and easily influenced. However, he changes after a single conversation with Lord Henry Wotton and he knows that the ideas Lord Henry has planted in his mind are like weeds that will do him much disgrace. Dorian does not care about that and in fact already begins blaming everyone but himself for his actions and their consequences.

It is through such a thought process and the influence of Lord Henry Wotton that Dorian spirals into the world of Hedonism and Aestheticism where he eventually meets his demise.

Sir Oscar Wilde wrote "The Picture of Dorian Gray" with every intention of shocking the Victorian public and he definitely succeeded. Though that was not the only thing he sought to do, he wanted to shed light on the hypocrisy of the era and how it effected everyone. He did this by using characters like Lord Henry Wotton to embody the ideals of the era and Basil Hallward to be the moral compass. It is Dorian Gray whom is the stand in for consequences of leading such a life and how twisted the thought process of those who do is.

Thank you for reading my manic essay that probably won't help me a single bit. But I just wanted to rant about how much I dislike Dorian and Lord Henry.

Anywho, I have got to go. English test tomorrow and all. Byeeee(づ｡��‿‿◕｡)づ
