Controlled Assessment: Shakespeare and the Literary Heritage

You have done an excellent job of exploring the causes of the women’s anger and frustration and you have explored at some length the social context of this in relation to both texts. You have generated an original response to each text and each character and referred extensively to textual references to support this.

To develop further you must:

• Explore in much greater detail the language of the quotations you choose. Many opportunities to expand on the ways the characters’ emotions were communicated through words, language devices and grammatical formulations were missed

• Keep a clearer focus on the dimensions of the question. Your thinking became very psychological and philosophical at times, and this obscured the answer to the question “How were emotions communicated” because you spent a lot of time explaining how these emotions came about and why they were there.
