From the poems we have studied in class look again at two in detail and explore how the poets are presenting the theme of identity.
Controlled assessment question: "Explore the ways some of the poets in your anthology present issues of identity."
Refer to at least two poems in detail in your answer and mention at least one other to support a point you are making.
Advice:
- Explain clearly what the issues of identity are in the poems e.g. feeling strongly about a home country; being influenced by a family member; the experience of injustice and brutality; racial discrimination.
- Show how these issues are similar or different in the poems you choose.
- Analyse language features. Always refer to language to support any point you make.
- Show how the poets express their feelings by the words and images they use.
Look at the BBC Bitesize website that comments on some of the poems we have studied. It also gives you advice on how to structure a comparative poetry analysis.
