Hello Group,
I'm writing to outline what we've decided last class as our final (and awesome) presentation layout.
FOCUS: Exploring hybridity in the characters (primarily Antoinette), and cultural/physical setting of Wide Sargasso Sea.
Itinerary: introducing ourselves and an index for our presentation
Introduction: (The Itinerary and Introduction can be written when the presentation is written)
1) Contextualizing the novel/introducing the author.
2) Introducing hybridity and its five sub-categories (i.e. cultural, racial, linguistic, literary, and religious)
3) Presenting our focus to the class
THE BODY:
1) Characters:
Antoinette (we will discuss Antoinette's hybridity by breaking it into the five sub-categories - each person is responsible for finding quotes/research which support two of the following categories.
Antoinette's cultural hybridity - Martyna, Lidia
Antoinette's racial hybridity - Martyna, Lidia
Antoinette's linguistic hybridity - Khalid, Ally
Antoinette's religious hybridity - Khalid, Ally (consult on this... might not use it; possible obeah (or however you spell it) references.
How Antoinette is affected by the hybridity - ALL
We will finish "characters" off by looking at a couple other significant hybrid characters within the novel.
2) Setting (Cultural and Physical) - Ally and Lidia will finish doing the research for this (Ally you're on this because you already did most of it for the previous lay out. We figured you'd know best what you're doing). In this category we're NOT breaking hybridity into the sub-categories.
Physical Setting - the hybridity as portrayed in the landscape and setting/ what affect this has on the characters/reader.
Cultural Setting - choose 3 most significant cultural setting elements (i.e. food, clothing ect.) and discuss their hybridity + how this affects the characters/novel.
3) Literary Hybridity - The book as a hybrid. Martyna will finish the research for this.
4) Conclusion - Tieing it all together
DUE DATES:
1) By Thursday night all of the above research is to be done.
2) Friday Lidia and Ally will write up the presentation using the research provided by everyone + they will mail it out
3) Saturday Martyna will do the skits and Khalid will do the presentation slides according to the write up
4) Sunday morning we meet for rehearsal. What time are we meeting?
5) Monday we meet if necessary.
Go Team!
Martyna G
