letap Posted October 7, 2014 Report Share Posted October 7, 2014 Hi! I was wondering if it was acceptable to analyse a novella for my Extended Essay in English A Literature. Are novellas too short to analyse well? Does the IB have any requirements for the length of the text to be studied? Thanks for all the help, in advance!

Blackcurrant Posted October 7, 2014 Report Share Posted October 7, 2014 (edited) Heart of Darkness is a novella, very short, and no one has yet exhausted its possibilities for interpretation, let alone produced reams of essays, journal articles and books of critical commentary -- tons have been written on this novella and it continues to generate an inexhaustible supply or words. So to answer your question, "no". To both questions . Edited October 8, 2014 by Blackcurrant 1 Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
