This book is a companion guide for teachers teaching both Higher and Ordinary Level students the 'Eclipsed' by Patricia Burke Brogan, a prescribed comparative study text for the Leaving Cert English examination.
Each chapter contains notes on Cultural Context/Social Setting, Literary Genre, General Vision and Viewpoint, Relationships and Hero/Heroine/Villain, and a set of questions on Cultural Context/Social Setting, Literary Genre, General Vision and Viewpoint, Relationships and Hero/Heroine/Villain. The notes are intended as a starting point for students, to provide something concrete for each mode that can be developed and built on by exploring the relevant mode-based questions for each chapter.
Towards the back of the book, there are short notes looking at each mode as a whole, across the entire play, and accompanying questions (please note, there may be some similarity with earlier questions to draw attention to key ideas).
Lastly, there is a section of questions on each mode, designed to prompt comparisons between 'Eclipsed' and other Comparative Study texts, preparing students for the Leaving Certificate exam.
