    I've searched the forum and found nothing really concrete about the comparative.

    I'm studying Wuthering Heights, Billy Eliott and Sive as the three text. And my question is how do I go about answering these CC and LG questions? Have any of you guys any notes or suggestion on what way I should go about answering the questins?

    Any help would be appreciated guys, thanks!!

    Cultural Context is the world of the texts - is it poor?? what role does religion, education play?? how are women treated?? stuff like that

    Literary Genre is how the text is told - chapters, scenes, acts, dialouge, dialect, stage directions, props, costumes, descriptive passages etc.

    Its generally assumed that cultural context aint coming up this year. so you might wanna think about doing V+V

    Well you never know, anythings possible but yes, people have been saying its likely not to come up, probably because it usually does....and is easy :P But sure study it anyways, everything is just second guessing

    CC is definitely easiest but from what I heard, most schools are focusing on GVV and LG. ;)
