One of the key skills of this outcome is the might to analyses the ways in which textual meaning is created. This means being able to identif y narrative devices used by authors and the way structural and language elements tot up to a readers understanding of the key textual concerns.Some of the devices include Narrative viewpoint Imagery (similes, metaphors, personification etc) Symbolism / Motif Tone / Mood consider here Roses use of the storm, interactions / tension among characters Setting Colloquial Language Writers use these devices to shape our perceptions of and attitudes towards characters and textual ideas / themes.

Differing interpretations 1 . For each of the following statements, find examples from the text that challenge or endorse the ideas presented discuss why you chose the m Twelve Angry Men points up the fact, which similarly many of us have not taken seriously, of what it means to serve on a Jury when a mans life is at stake. Numbered but not named, the Jurors comprise a cross section of American society Eire value for Rose is as social representatives rather than as individuals. What is uplifting is that Roses narrative shows the iniquity of racial prejudice, and then rational men turning their backs on this ugliness. The racist views do not hold sway for long. Using the themes in the text, develop interpretative statements about the text that link two or more of these ideas in one sentence. For example Throughout his play, Rose critiques the oppressive and discriminative environment of McCarthy America, exploring the way some Jurors use the power of their rationality to attempt to sway others to share their point of view.Indeed, the 8th juror is aware of the effects and dangers of peer pressure and this is illustrated through his request to have the second (and possibly the most important vote) taken as an anonymous ballot (p. 18) At various moments in the play, the 10th, 3rd and seventh jurors do try to sway the vote to guilty through the use of intimidation rather than argument. What can be interpreted is another clear message conveyed by Rose through his play is that this type of intimidation will ultimately be unsuccessful.Logic and reason do win out over autochthonal prejudice, but what the play also illustrates is that for this to occur, there must be voices who are prepared to hold true to their convictions. This is clearly portrayed through the contrast between the interrupting and shouting of Jurors 10 and 3 and the calm and reflective pauses of Juror 8. 2. What truths are revealed throughout the play? 3. Identify one character in the text that you are sympathetic towards and one you are critical of. Explain your reactions using evidence from the text.
