Joseph et Maurice partent d’abord en direction de Montluçon pour rejoindre leur sœur aînée, Rosette, qui habite non loin de là, à Ainay-le-Vieil. Mais du fait qu’il y ait un collaborateur dans le village susceptible de les dénoncer, elle leur explique qu’ils ne peuvent pas rester plus longtemps. Ils partent alors pour Aix-les-Bains en Savoie pour rejoindre leurs frères et leur mère, qui avait réussi à échapper à la rafle. N’arrivant pas à surmonter l’arrestation de son mari, elle ne tardera pas à remonter à Paris. Encore forcés de fuir, les deux frères tentent finalement de retrouver une vie normale dans le village de Rumilly. ENGLISH TRANSLATION Back at the Moisson Nouvelle camp, they learn that their father has been caught in a roundup. Their Jewish identity being revealed, they must therefore flee again. Joseph and Maurice first set off in the direction of Montluçon to join their older sister, Rosette, who lives not far from there, in Ainay-le-Vieil. But the fact that there is a collaborator in the village likely to denounce them, she explains to them that they cannot stay longer. They then left for Aix-les-Bains in Savoy to join their brothers and their mother, who had managed to escape the roundup. Unable to overcome the arrest of her husband, she will not be long in returning to Paris. Still forced to flee, the two brothers finally try to find a normal life in the village of Rumilly. “Tu as eu peur?” “Non… enfin pas beaucoup, j’ai été malade, à un moment mais je suis guéri” (Highlights how Joseph felt about his time in the Gestapo headquarters) “Cela m’ennuie de quitter la Méditerranée, j’y reviendrai quand je serai plus grand et que ce sera la paix” (Higlights how Jo believes that he will survive to return to the Mediterranean) “Même en payant des millions, je ne pourrais rien vous vendre, il y a bien longtemps qu’il n’y a plus d’arrivage, les maisons de gros ne livrent plus” (Highlights how many items in France were scarce due to rations) “Vous ne trouverez pad d’hôtel à Montluçon, il y en a deux qui ont été requisitionés par les Allemands et un autre pour la Milice” (Highlights how the Gestapo had requisitioned all the hotels in France) Hopefully you will find this resource useful, but please do not hesitate to message me via email at alevelrevisionmadeeasy@gmail.com

Othello Critics and Critical Approaches A-Level English Literature This is a massive bundle of resources to aid your study of Shakespeare’s ‘Othello’ for A-Level English Literature with a specific focus on critics and critical approaches. In order to achieve a top grade in English Literature, it is absolutely essential to include critics and/or critical approaches in your answer to act as supporting evidence. You may either corroborate or challenge this critic - it is often quite fun to counter the critic and open up a literary debate. Included in this resource: 16-Page Highly Detailed Critical Analysis document (PDF/Word included) exploring every single character, theme and ‘critical interpretations over the years’ in the play. A long list of critics for each character / theme, so that you can easily decide which critic and critical approach suits you best for your revision without having to do the EXTENSIVE research involved in categorising the critics. Please see the preview for an example of this document. Variety of Critics for Characters: Othello, Iago, Desdemona, Cassio, Emilia, Roderigo and Bianca. Variety of Critics for Themes: Identity/Othersider/Other, Jealousy, Race, Justice, Gender, Othello as a tragedy, Deception, Appearance versus Reality, Manipulation, Love, Identity, Language, Honour and Reputation, Power, Setting. Key Critical Interpretations over the Years: 19th and 20th Century Views, Feminist Contemporary readings of Desdemona, Marxist Readings, Historicist Readings, Christian Elements of the Play, Post-Colonial Readings, Context on the Source for Othello - Hecatommithi and Literary Context / Intertextuality (tragedy, patriarchy, abuse of women, independent women, the destructive nature of love, race and machiavellian villains in Renaissance drama). Othello ‘Critical Approaches’ summary sheet. In a similar way to the latter section of the 16-page document, this sheet looks at the variety of approaches, the critics quotes to back up the approach, the key concepts of this approach and then finally how we can apply this approach to ‘Othello’. This is highly easy to understand due to the easy table layout. Approaches include: feminist, marxist, new-historicist, post-colonial, psychoanalytical and formalist. Othello Critics ‘Cheat Sheet’. A reduced summary of the 16-page document of the REALLY important critics / critical approaches. Othello’s Final Speech in the play with a highly detailed critical analysis with links to critics / their research included. A breakdown analysis of F.R. Leavis and this view on Othello / Honour. This is a good example of what the examiner will be looking for in the exam - do not just say the critic, but rather examine what it is that they are saying (challenge/corroborate).
