– highlight the genre, what exactly is it showing.

emotions within the family or lavinea (rape / assault / anger)

– what evidence is there, for example quotations from the play

(quotations from the book, eg lines and what exactly characters are saying.)

-what does this show and how does it. for example emotions ect

for example ” she cried out for help but nobody heard her” , this shows how lonely she is and how nobody is there to help her. it shows that she cannot depend on anybody to help her

– summary of what exactly it is. linking it back to what genre it is

as nobody was there to help her, she had felt lonely which emphasises the genre of assault and rape, which would in todays world leave many women feeling lonely and unable to seek help from anybody.

make sure to link back evidence from the script to your point.

scene summary

In the forest, Aaron hides a bag of gold under a tree. Tamora enters and announces that she and Aaron should have sex while everyone else is busy hunting. Aaron blows her off and says he’s not in the mood for love because he’s got “vengeance” on his mind. He’s way too busy preparing for Bassianus’s murder and Lavinia’s rape to think about anything else

Setting…Forest

Themes: Revenge

Quotation4 “Have I Not Reason Think You To Look Pale?”

Explanation: The Quototation

A rhetorical question is a device used to persuade or subtly influence the audience. It’s a question asked, not for the answer, but for the effect.

It is the same as alliteration, and assonance; it creates emphasis on certain important words and verses.

mmonly known as commands, imperatives can be very persuasive or manipulative techniques that can enhance the way somebody acts. They can be used in texts, automated phone calls, when talking to a particular individual and many other ways.

It may be used to evoke strong feelings or to create a strong impression, but is not meant to be taken literally. Hyperboles are exaggerations to create emphasies or effect.

1. Dramatic irony is when the audience or the reader knows more than the protagonist

The protagonist is often considered to be the main character who drives the action forward.

2. Shakespeare uses Dramatic Irony to deceive the reader and Titus Andronicus to believe she wants to make to make peace With Titus. “But on my honour for good lord Titus’ innocence in all”. This shows the audience that Tamora is going to forgive Titus.

Setting

Rome

“To this your son is mark’d, and

your son must die.

die he must/ To appease their

to satisfy the dead

groaning shadows that are gone”

All tasks must be completed in your books

or on your blogs by Tuesday 14th January.

LUCIUS

Give us the proudest prisoner of the Goths,

That we may hew his limbs, and on a pile

Ad manes fratrum sacrifice his flesh,

Before this earthy prison of their bones;

That so the shadows be not unappeased,

Nor we disturb’d with prodigies on earth.

TITUS ANDRONICUS

I give him you, the noblest that survives,

The eldest son of this distressed queen.

TAMORA

Stay, Roman brethren! Gracious conqueror,

Victorious Titus, rue the tears I shed,

A mother’s tears in passion for her son:

And if thy sons were ever dear to thee,

O, think my son to be as dear to me!

Sufficeth not that we are brought to Rome,

To beautify thy triumphs and return,

Captive to thee and to thy Roman yoke,

But must my sons be slaughter’d in the streets,

For valiant doings in their country’s cause?

O, if to fight for king and commonweal

Were piety in thine, it is in these.

Andronicus, stain not thy tomb with blood:

Wilt thou draw near the nature of the gods?

Draw near them then in being merciful:

Sweet mercy is nobility’s true badge:

Thrice noble Titus, spare my first-born son.

TITUS ANDRONICUS

Patient yourself, madam, and pardon me.

These are their brethren, whom you Goths

beheld

Alive and dead, and for their brethren slain

Religiously they ask a sacrifice:

To this your son is mark’d, and die he must,

To appease their groaning shadows that are

gone.

Sonnet 18

OVERVIEW

The man who speaks begins by asking whether he should or will compare “thee to a summer day”. he says that his beloved is more lovely and more even tempered. he then runs off a list of reasons why summer isn’t all great that winds shake the buds that emerged in summer ends to quickly and the sun can get to hot or be blocked by The cloud.

Sonnet 73

OVERVIEW

In lines 13-14 you get a contrasting idea to sonnet18, though it is related. The speaker tells the person he is talking to that because he (the the mans who’s reading) is  to die very soon the other person should treasure their love for the rest of his/her life.f

Sonnet 55

OVERVIEW

Talking to the prison he loves. the speaker begins with some confident words of comfort no other memorials, however permanent, can outdo this sonnet, which will live longer and shine bright like a diamond. Other human creations have to deal with time and violent war, but this poem escapes both of these downers.

Sonnet 101

OVERVIEW

Continuing his plea to the Muse of poetry, the poet abandons his silence and preach about the nature of truth and beautifulness. Nature he says is the poet’s truth cosmetic beauty his falsehood “Truth needs no color with his color fixed, Beauty no pencil beauty’s truth to lay.”

Sonnet 152

OVERVIEW

The end of the relationship between the man who reads and his misses becomes apparent. Addressing the woman with a sense of embarrassment and utter anger, the poet is fully conscious of his own adultery and that of his misses.
