Hey everyone,
I just wanted to ask a question in relation to the following essay from NESA's samples.
Through the telling and receiving of stories, we become more aware of ourselves and our shared human experiences.
Explore this statement with close reference to your prescribed text.
Was just wondering how this question should be interpreted, since it places focus on both the 'telling' and 'receiving' aspects of storytelling, are we expected explore texts' ability to create self-awareness for both the audience and the composer. Ie. Should we be linking back to our text's effects on us, as well as on the author's human experience too?
Also, wanted to ask if this could be a suitable thesis:
Through the process of storytelling, composers explore the paradoxical, multifaceted nature of the human experience, thus allowing for responders to expand their awareness of the underlying complexities of such experience.
Any help will be greatly appreciated,
Thanks!
