TFA and C&P essay charts

Is anyone else having trouble with the charts? The questions all seems pretty specific. Post what you think some good information is for the questions. For example, how would you describe TFA, between photographic detail and human/political issues? I'm having a hard time thinking of what it would be considered. It doesn't really go into human issues, other than just telling the story and the reader understanding the issues from what is going on between people.

  1. Exactly, Greg. The interactions between the people are supposed to demonstrate the human issues in the novel. Human issues come up as we walk, talk, and fight with one another.

    As far as the split between photographic detail and human/political issues, I am not sure what you want clarified.

  2. Well for photographic detail, TFA is very photographic, showing things as they were, not highlighting certain issues, like C&P tends to do.

  3. hey greg, as far as the photographic detail goes, i like to just watch it as if it were a documentery on the discovery channel, where the narrorator describes things but they also show clips of actors portraying the characters though out the program. it makes it much easier to soke up that way.

    where as C&P reads more like a detailed movie script as it describes everything in great detail but uses a third person approch at times

    hope this helps
