Wider Reading for Week 4

Hello year 13s,

There are three texts I'd like you to read this week:

  1. A summary of Freud's theory of psychoanalysis (we are going to apply this to The Yellow Wallpaper next week). https://drive.google.com/file/d/0ByjTQpSbakfiM1Z3TjhKbW5KWXM/view?usp=sharing 
  2. Kate Chopin's - 'The Story of an Hour' (this short story by Perkins Gilman's contemporary explores similar themes and can be referred to in your coursework). http://archive.vcu.edu/english/engweb/webtexts/hour/ 
  3. 'The Revolt of Mother' (likewise, explores similar themes from a contemporary female author). https://americanliterature.com/author/mary-e-wilkins-freeman/short-story/the-revolt-of-mother 
This week we have started to look at examples of previous coursework and you've made a start on your own essays. Your first draft must be completed by Tuesday 18th October. 

You can access lots more coursework exemplars with comments from the examiners here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0ByjTQpSbakfiME5meEtkWHE3VFk/view?usp=sharing
