Hey!
Could someone help me with a technique for this quote from Richard III:

"Princes have but titles for their glories..."

thanks!

I'm sure the interesting syntax allows for there to be a technique here but I'm not sure what it is...

[Leah_K]

I can't really see much in here - can you use it without a technique? If you need a technique, maybe tone?

okay, thanks!

thanks    perhaps a mention of the syntax will do...i have got other techniques and quotes in my essay

Hey is there a technique in this....
"subtle, false and treacherous"- i can easily use in the sentence if not....
thanks

Not really something i see that is involving a technique. It looks more like a quote you would insert when describing a character who is essential to whatever point you're trying to argue.
Whats the context?

Hmm, not sure if there is a technique in the quote. I was gonna say 'rule of three' but I'm not entirely sure what the context is. Is there another part of the text that uses this pattern? If so, it could be a triad motif.

this is most likely incorrect , but not high modality or juxtaposing words>?

hey I was wondering if someone could help me with thesis ideas for this essay question:


Explore how the change in context from 1920s Germany to Post WW2 Britain/Europe has both Lang and Orwell’s depictions of Power and Control

im kinda stuck and don't know where to start

thank you

Hey! Is there a word missing from that question? Doesn't quite read correctly! Either way, I think understanding the requirements of the Module should be your first step. This guide might help!

High modality could work depending on context! I'd go with:

a) Loaded word choice, my default technique for any quote
b) A different quote - Once you start reaching for techniques, chances are there is a better example in the text

Nope! I copied the question word for word from the board and I checked with others to make sure i copied it correctly and I did

Weird! Thought there should have been an 'affected' or something similar before the authors

[Never.Give.Up]

could saying someone is a "scourge of God" be a metaphor??

[LaraC]

Thanks 'theyam'. I'll give it a try out - think I may need to post a little more first though
