I'm pretty sure my group handed me the hardest couple to write about but no big deal, haha. Uhmm, so.. Obviously we are writing the essay on the three main relationships in The Importance of Being Earnest. Specifically, I'm writing about the couple, Jack and Gwendolen, and my paragraph will be inbetween Alex and Lilly's. This is kind of hard because I have to transition according to Alex's concluding sentence, and Lilly's topic sentence. However.. We will make this work!~
My first CD is about how Jack and Gwendolen flirt too much, and the CM I wrote about it was that: Well, one, they flirt too much - excessively so - and two, it was not standard to be seen in the Victorian Era, so pretty much, it was unnacceptable. My second CD is when Jack proposes to Gwendolen, but Gwendolen is disappointed in the way he proposed. The CM's were that you could tell they were experienced in proposals, or even just relationships themselves, and that the way their dialogue, even during a proposal, is casual, shows that their relationship is also casual - comfortable. My last CD isn't very good, because I didnt know what CM to write about it, so I kind of just made the CM's up. So my CM's dont really match up with the CD... But, my CD was when Gwendolen says to Jack, (about the name Jack/John vs. the name Ernest), "I pity any woman who is married to a man called John. She would probably never be allowed to know the entrancing pleasure of a single moment's solitude." My CM goes along with my earlier CM, saying that their maturity in the relationship is developed by the high expectations that influence them. And also that, the highest influencing expectation is from Lady Bracknell who teaches/mothers/governs her daughter, so that Gwendolen's expectations are high as well.
Thank God we have it all finished today! Nice work guys. And thanks for the help. Have fun enjoying your vacation. :)

Yeah you do have a hard realtionship to write about.
ReplyDeleteI think you have a lot of interesting ideas/quotes to write about and your commentary sounds like you really know what your talking about.
Good job!
Thanks you too! I think your paragraph sounds like it's going to be great! Now that Ive read it over I understand a little more by what you mean by CMs expressing your personal views. And, even if the topic sentance/concluding sentance dont quite flow with the other two paragraphs, we can definately make it work on Tuesday.
