AS ENGLISH LITERATURE - SPIES SYMBOLIC LOCATIONS

AS ENGLISH LITERATURE
2000 WORD COMPARATIVE ESSAY
SPIES – SYMBOLIC LOCATIONS

Whatever essay you choose to write it is really important that you engage imaginatively and creatively with the essay topic. It’s vital that you reflect and think sensitively and questioningly, exploring ideas and making links between both texts.

In this exercise let us look at two locations within Spies and consider their function and the symbolism of this location.

Locations are very important in Equus as well and you can consider how these are used in the play. Remember that you can draw on points from this exercise and maybe relevant for your essay topic. For example topics such as ‘secrets’ and ‘desire’, ‘childhood’ and ‘storytelling’ can all draw on locations to some extent.
