Commentary - Ethan Frome
This is my essay which I used for my IOP in 2014. It is titled " How are the themes in Wharton's Ethan Frome constructed through her use of imagery?"
When I started IB, I found English Literature to be very difficult (and I still do) so I thought I would share this essay with whoever is struggling to analyze Ethan Frome or thinking of doing IB.
I do not know the grade of my IOP, but my teacher told me I did a good job and my peers told me it was insightful as well.
Enjoy!

Comparative Paper 2 on Drama (Beckett, Shakespeare, Miller)
Prompt: "Visual Action can be as important as speech on stage". Discuss with referencing at least two works that you have studied.
I chose to write my essay on Beckett's Waiting for Godot, Miller's Death of a Salesman, and Shakespeare's Hamlet. We only got 90 minutes to do this essay, so it's a bit unfinished near the last point/conclusion.
Received a 6.
