Anthems of Change
1bEN/En - PROJECT:
Songs that became anthems of change
Lesson 1 Intro to the topic.
Behind the Civil Rights Message Of "Blackbird" by The Beatles (americansongwriter.com)
An analysis of Lennon/McCartney: Blackbird, 1968.
Lesson 2 The groups choose a song and start working with the product.
Lesson 3 Group work continued.
Lesson 4 Group presentations in class
Lesson 5 Hannah Miller: Where Have All the Protest Songs Gone? 2021
Creative work: writing your own protest song.
For this project you’ll be working in groups. Each group is assigned a decade from which they must choose a song that became an anthem of change during this period.
THE PRODUCT AND CLASS PRESENTATION
1) You must prepare a presentation of a song (of your choice) and artist, and the historical event that it marks (the circumstances for which it was written). Consider also here if the song had an impact on things at the time it was released.
2) An analysis of the song lyrics and the music (see methods for analysing poetry and music in the back of this compendium).
3) Your product must be presented as a power point presentation which includes central points and images that match your presentation – and of course also the actual song.
All members of the group must participate in the oral presentation (approx.. 15 mins.)
GROUPS
1950s Margrethe, Noah, Sebastian
1960s Esther, Mathias, Mads
1970s-1980s Anine, Isak, Filippa

List of contents:
The Declaration of Independence, 1776
Edward N. Kearny, The Frontier Heritage (1984)
Emma Lazarus, The New Colossus (1883)
Walt Whitman: I hear America Singing (1867)
Langston Hughes, I, Too (1994)

American English
Global English
Dr. Ada Uzoamaka Azodo, Interview with Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie
Barack Obama, The American Promise (2008)
Film: The Pursuit of HappYness (2006)
The topic takes it's starting point with the phrase: The American Dream and what this entails. We read the Declaration of Independence and talk about the purpose of this document. We also learn about the first frontiers men who created the America that we know of today.
Lazarus, Whitman and Hughes are read with the purpose of learning about how to read poetry and also to look at the America that is depicted through these poems.
Adichie's TedTalk inspired us to talk about the importance of learning about other cultures - mainly about seeing things from other people's perspective too, so that we don't always judge people and things based on only a "single story".
Adichie's, The Thing Around Your Neck, gives a more critical view on the American Dream - and the story holds an interesting POV.
As a brief interlude we learned about the development of the English language and English as a global language.
Finally, we made a rhetorical analysis of Obama's speech and whatched The Pursuit of HappYness.

Gothic Stories - EKSAMEN
In this course on Gothic Literature, the students are introduced first to the features of the genre and the notions of the Other, the Uncanny and the Doppelgänger motif. We'll be reading fictional texts, short stories, poetry and an excerpt from Jane Eyre. Reading Poe, we will in particular focus on his style of writing, narrative technique and the gothic features in The Raven and The Tell-Tale Heart. In Jane Eyre we'll focus on Bertha Rochester, the madwoman in the attic, as she holds many of the traits that this course revolves around. Also Jane will be looked at as an Other and of course the setting of Thornfield Hall as the perfect location for a gothic tale. Excerpts of Frankenstein are read with focus on narration and gothic features. Lastly, we read, The Yellow Wallpaper, with focus on symbols (the estate, the wallpaper and the moon) and themes: madness and gender roles. We compare the narrator's situation to that of the women in Brontë's story too.
