Slide 6 - Tekstslide

Connotations = diction/lexis word choice

Slide 7 - Tekstslide

Quotation 
Technique 
Effect 
‘Where are my manners?’
Question 
It suggests he is polite.
‘At some point in time, I will be standing over you, as genially as possible.’
Connotations of the word ‘genially’
It suggests that the narrator is pleasant, or at least wants to be pleasant (the addition of ‘as possible’ suggests he is not always able to be as genial as he would like).
‘I will carry you gently away.’
Connotations of the word ‘gently’.
the narrator sounds kind and caring which is in opposition from what we would expect from Death as a narrator. 

Slide 8 - Tekstslide

 "At that moment, you will be lying there (I rarely find people standing up). You will be caked in your own body. There might be a discovery; a scream will dribble down the air. The only sound I’ll hear after that will be my own breathing, and the sound of the smell, of my footsteps. The question is, what colour will everything be at that moment when I come for you? What will the sky be saying?"

This is synaesthesia (look this term up) 

1. What effect do you think the use of synaesthesia has here? You might want to think about:
- the effect on the narrative
- the effect on our impressions of the narrator.

Slide 9 - Tekstslide

Suggested ideas 
1. The use of synaesthesia creates an unusual narrative perspective, which is appropriate given the unusual narrator. It also strengthens our understanding of the narrator as a sensitive character, who is highly aware of the things around him. Additionally, it suggests that our narrator has senses that are highly developed in an unusual way. 

Slide 10 - Tekstslide

Read from "Still, it’s possible " to " have beaten lungs."


I witness the ones who are left behind, crumbling amongst the jigsaw puzzle of realisation, despair and surprise. They have punctured hearts. They have beaten lungs.
1. What connotations does this verb have? How does it make the people sound?
1.
2. What effect does this metaphor have?
2.
3. What technique is used here? What effect does it have?
3.

Slide 11 - Tekstslide

Suggested ideas 
1.There are Connotations of something disintegrating or breaking. The use of this verb makes people sound as though their grief is destroying them.
2. This metaphor suggests that nothing makes sense any more. The grieving are struggling to put the pieces back together.
3. These metaphors reiterate the idea that bereavement has broken these people physically and emotionally.
