9695 Paper 42
How did your exam go?? I did the sonnets, and was so glad the sonnet 116 was there for the passage based question. It was pretty insightful. I don’t know why, but the beloved part a question on Beloved was so easy, yet I chose to do part b (natural response :( ), realising midway that I hated it and didn’t know what to discuss, then went back to answering part a 😭😭😭. I was able to write only 4 pages, and the points were rather limited, I talked about hauntology and Jacques Derrida, and how the past comes to haunt, John Leonard and ghostly nature of beloved, gothic genre, multiple perspectives (polyphony), and African Myth Akibu (don’t ask me how, but I related it to beloved somehow). Wasn’t able to give a conclusion tho, but to hell with that, I’ve actually never seen examiner give a shit about conclusions lol. How did your paper go? What do you think the grade thresholds will be??
