Full Description
In this exam, candidates will analyze narrative structures within autobiographical works such as memoirs and diaries. The focus will be on how these structures affect self-representation and personal identity.
An understanding of narrative structure is crucial in the study of autobiography, as it shapes the reader's perception of the author’s identity. This analytical skill is essential for both academic discourse and effective literary critique.
The exam will evaluate the candidates' ability to verbally dissect narrative elements, their comprehension of how structure influences self-representation, and their critical thinking in discussing specific memoir texts.
Candidates are encouraged to draw connections between narrative form, content, and the implications on self-identity, while also considering how these aspects contribute to larger literary trends.
