GCSE Orals - Jane Eyre

Script for GCSE oral presentation (Distinction and grade 9 achieved in 2022)

Title: Identity and self-worth in ‘Jane Eyre’

This can be used as a revision resource for GCSE English Literature, filled with context and ideas not typically discussed in lessons to help boost your grade to a 9.
This can also be used to see a structure of a successful oral presentation.

Subtitles:

1. Introduction
2. Jane stays true to herself by resisting male oppression through the patriarchy
3. Jane stays true to herself by resisting manipulating her identity for male figures
4. The power of name to Jane and the Bronte sisters
5. The power of name regarding Rochester and Antoinette from Wide Sargasso Sea (cut out of the final presentation to not overrun)

Slight disclaimer: this presentation was written and presented at the peak of my slightly obsessive attitude towards this novel and the Bronte sisters.
