Exam Revision Homework 1 - Morality
Here's an interesting video where Arthur Miller suggests that his own plays and the plays of Shakespeare are deeply concerned with morality. Can you come up with THREE ways that Death of a Salesman is concerned with morality and THREE ways that Romeo and Juliet is concerned with morality?
Submit your answers here. This can take the form of a simple list.
By the way...EVERY MEMBER of our TWO CLASSES did a GREAT job with our Death of a Salesman scene. That's really impressive. Let's see if we can do this well again with our Romeo and Juliet scene!
Logging you in...
