Notes

Skilful interpretation of the question and use of language features, form, and structure to craft an exposition

  • Exposition is explanatory
    • Take a side/ position/ opinions
    • Argument -> Thesis
  • Form
    • Examples

Evaluates how the text sustains or challenges established cultural assumptions

  • Cultural Assumptions
    • Natural inclinations about how we view the world
      • Controlling information and therefore fear
      • The fear of the unknown or of the other cultures (xenophobia)
      • Fear of death
      • Fear of conflict
      • Fear of the apocalypse
      • Failure

Analyses the composer's choice of languages modes, forms and features and structures to shape meanings
