Hey miss. Some of my pictures havent loaded up properly and i dont know why. All help would be greatly appreciated. Also for our exam question with Mr Palmer im confused. Would the ideology for the tin man for example be to get his heart? thankyou.

Hi Sam,
your pictures seem to be on your blog now. If you're having problems just click on settings and have a look through to see if some options have been selected in error.

With regards to the Ideology essay, don't think so literally. Think in terms of representations and metaphors. What does the tin man think of himself before Dorothy comes along? How, then, does he feel once Dorothy is there and they have sang their song? How is he treated at the gates to the Emerald City? Ideology is about a set of ideas for life... Karl Marx talked about these ideas originating from the powerful and influencing the public. What is the ideology for Oz and how do you think this has affected the tin man?

Goodluck!
