In the sixth week of our AP Lit class, we've focused on creating a presentation in groups. I have a group of two, and I find that working in a group of two is easier than working in a group of three but a little harder than writing in a group of two. I appreciate working by myself, for working alone enables me to share my thoughts freely and without outside restrictions. However, working in a pair has it's perks. My partner is able to help me see that all contributions are necessary and that not all information is applicable. In our groups, we were tasked with analyzing two aspects of literature. The two aspects that my pair focused on were fantasy and point of view. This week, I have mostly focused on the fantasy part of our presentation. I have been writing and thinking about fantasy on a different level than I ever had before. Fantasy is an incredible genre, and I have always loved reading it. While analyzing fantasy, we were given packets that further explained the aspects of literature that we have chose. One of my favorite quotes from this packet is, "truth in fiction is not the same as fidelity in fact.". Not everyone's truth is the same, and that's one of my favorite things about fiction, especially fantasy. When writing fantasy, you are under free reign and you are in charge of the facts.
