Year 12 Class Summer Project
- Over the summer, you will be working together to create a website on the short stories that we are studying in Literature. You will each be responsable for covering the gothic elements in one short story. It should have a decent amount of text and analysis that your classmates can use as a study aid.
To remind yourselves of the gothic elements that you should cover:
· Fear, terror
· Tension, suspense
· Blood, gore, horror
· Alien landscapes
· Supernatural
· Power of nature
· Isolated settings
· Ruin
· Previous grandeur
· Ancientness /timelessness
· Wilderness
· Isolation
· Religion vs. evil
· Rational vs belief
· Eroticism, sexuality, corruption of innocence
The more effort you put in, the better resource and tool you will create for yourselves! Feel free to cover the topic in film and upload onto your page if you wish.
Good Luck and have some fun with it!
