A very clever (and handsome) writer
has written an analytical paragraph…
but his pen kept running out of ink (even though
it’s typed) and so there are words missing…
For one of you, the words are the ideas, feelings,
issues, themes. For the other, they are the
techniques.
Don’t look at each others. Read the quotation
and see if you can put in sensible answers.
a cold dew covered my forehead, my teeth chattered, and every limb
became convulsed: when, by the dim and yellow light of the moon, as it
forced its way through the window shutters, I beheld the wretch -- the
miserable monster whom I had created.
Shelley describes Victor’s illness as he wakes from a
dream. She uses the
“chattered” and
“convulsed” to emphasise this. Similarly, the
monster himself is described with an aggressive
, “forced” and described with
as a “wretch.” To add to the
effectiveness, Shelley uses
as
Frankenstein calls his creation a “miserable
monster”, emphasising his mental disturbance as he
contemplates the life he has created.

miserable monster whom I had created.
Shelley describes Victor’s
as he wakes from
a dream. She uses the powerful verbs “chattered”
and “convulsed” to emphasise this. Similarly, the
monster himself is described with an aggressive
verb, “forced” and described with emotive language
as a “wretch.” To add to the effectiveness, Shelley
uses alliteration as Frankenstein calls his creation a
“miserable monster”, emphasising his
as he contemplates the
he has created.

Building on this skill as a pair
Using the missing words example as a model, write
your own analytical paragraph. This is a Sage and
Scribe activity. The person with the techniques
missing word sheet is the SAGE. The person with
the ideas missing words is the scribe.
1. Decide on the ideas, issues, feelings, themes
that the quotation brings out – use the circle
sheet but be free to choose your own.
2. Decide on 2 or 3 techniques that are used.
Again, use the boxes but there could be more!
3. Write the analytical paragraph – SAGE says it,
SCRIBE writes it.
And on thy blade and dudgeon gouts of blood,
Which was not so before. There's no such thing:
It is the bloody business which informs
Thus to mine eyes.
And on thy blade and dudgeon gouts of blood,

Mental disturbance, the supernatural,
violence
Imagery, symbolism, emotive language
Peer Assess
1. How convincingly (out of 5) does it show
understanding of ideas, themes, issues etc?
Can you find the ideas, themes etc being
named in the answer.
2. How well does it connect the ideas, themes
etc to language/techniques
So what do I do??
Explore the relationship between the settings presented
in Macbeth and Frankenstein and their impact on the
behaviour and language of the main characters. Consider
• How Frankenstein acts and narrates in the Gothic castle
compared with his actions and words in the Romantic
outdoor setting
• How Macbeth acts and speaks in public as King or Lord
compared with how he acts and speaks in private.
• Any links between the two characters or significant
differences.
What do I include?
• Everything you write should either be about:
1. The ideas, issues, feelings, themes presented
in the text (the circles plus your own ideas)
2. The language or techniques used by the
writer to express these ideas, issues, feelings,
themes (the boxes plus your own ideas)
3. The Social and Historical context of the texts
eg Gothic, Romantic, Science, Ind Rev, French
Rev. Divine right of Kings, Renaissance etc
You’ll have three lessons
Suggestion:
1. Spend 40 mins on Frankenstein Chapter 5
(Gothic setting).
2. Spend 40 mins on Frankenstein Chapter 10
(Romantic setting) and comparing where
necessary with Gothic.
3. Spend 40 mins on Macbeth in public (and any
comparisons with the above)
4. Spend 40 mins on Macbeth in private (and any
comparisons with the above)
5. Spend 20 mins summarising the similarities and
differences.
How do I write it?
Your response should be about the settings in
the extracts and the ideas, issues, themes,
feelings present
Therefore, you should decide on what the ideas
etc are and which quotations from the whole
extract to use to analyse.
Only during the analysis do you move onto how
language and technique are used and/or how it
is reflective of the Social and Historical context.
eg
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Mental
disturbance
Religion
Deal with this as
the main theme
in the extract
and choose the
best quotations
to show how it
is brought out
using different
techniques

Then pick this
up and see if

If we have time
Swap your planning sheets with another pair at
the end of each extract plan and give three ways
they are similar to yours and three differences.
Once you have been made aware of the
differences, see if you want to change your plan.
