    III. Discussion Questions A. Individual Stories Nathaniel Hawthorne

    III. Discussion Questions a. Individual Stories Nathaniel Hawthorne, “Rappaccini’s Daughter” (1844) 1. As an early sf tale, this story makes important contributions to the sf megatext. What images, situations, plots, characters, settings, and themes do you recognize in Hawthorne’s story that recur in contemporary sf works in various media? 2. In Hawthorne’s The Scarlet Letter, the worst sin is to violate, “in cold blood, the sanctity of the human heart.” In what ways do the male characters of “Rappaccini’s Daughter” commit this sin? 3. In what ways can Beatrice be seen as a pawn of the men, as a strong and intelligent woman, as an alien being? How do these different views interact with one another? 4. Many descriptions in the story lead us to question what is “Actual” and what is “Imaginary”? How do these descriptions function to work both symbolically and literally in the story? 5. What is the attitude toward science in the story? How can it be compared to the attitude toward science in other stories from the anthology? Jules Verne, excerpt from Journey to the Center of the Earth (1864) 1. Who is narrator of this tale? In your opinion, why would Verne choose this particular character to be the narrator? Describe his relationship with the other members of this subterranean expedition. Many of Verne’s early novels feature a trio of protagonists who symbolize the “head,” the “heart,” and the “hand.” Why? How does this notion apply to the protagonists in Verne’s Journey to the Center of the Earth? 2.

  • Reading List

    Reading List

    Springwood Yr7; for the love of reading… Please find below a list of suggestions from many of our subjects on what you could read to improve your knowledge and understanding. If you find something better please tell Mr Scoles and I will update this page! In History we recommend students read the Horrible History series of books as these provide a fun and factual insight into many of the time periods they will study at Springwood. Further reading of novels like War Horse by Michael Morpurgo or the stories of King Arthur by local author Kevin Crossley-Holland are well worth a read. Geography recommends the Horrible Geography books as they are well written and popular with our current students, plus any travel guides you can find in local libraries. Learning a foreign language presents its own challenges when producing a reading list, but students can still do a lot for themselves to improve; Duolingo is a free language learning app, a basic phrasebooks with CD and websites like www.languagesonline.org.uk and Linguascope (please ask your German teacher for a username and password) are very helpful. Students can also subscribe to Mary Glasgow MFL reading magazines (in French, German or Spanish), these are full of fun quizzes and articles. www.maryglasgowplus.com/order_forms/1 Please look for the beginner magazines; Das Rad, Allons-y! or Que Tal? Websites are also useful for practical subjects like Food www.foodafactoflife.org or Design and Technology, www.technologystudent.com. Science recommend the Key Stage 3 revision guide that you can purchase from our school shop plus the following websites; http://www.bbc.co.uk/learningzone/clips/topics/secondary.shtml#science http://www.s-cool.co.uk/gcse http://www.science-active.co.uk/ http://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/ks3/ English as you would expect have a wide selection of titles that they have sent to all students via Show My Homework.
