IMPORTANT LINKS

I expect that you will have read all the poems from the Songs listed on this blog. Click here for a link to that list.

I expect that you have read The Rivals by the start of the next term. Read the play making notes and annotations making reference to the comparative topics listed elsewhere on this blog.

I expect you to have read the Introductions to the editions I've recommended on the two texts.

You must also read the background and context material I've directed you all to. Click here for a link to a really good document published by OCR on The Song. And click here for a similar document on The Rivals.

I also suggest you go to the OCR website a read over the past questions for F663. Click here for a link to the relevant pages on the website.

Another really important link is to the OCR website showing examples of F331 comparison essays. These essays do not address Sheridan and Blake but helpfully show the structure of comparison essays, the ways students write paragraphs and the way students integrate the variety of assessment objectives. Click here for this link. These essays include helpful commentaries by the examiner and also give an indication of grades.
