What do teachers say about this resource? (9093)
An incredibly detailed and thorough resource. An all-encompassing guide for teachers and students alike.
Very helpful tasks pitched at a range of levels, varying from comprehension, grammar to visual representation of the space and covering plot, characters, their relationships, recurring themes, symbols, interpretations as well as linguistic and literary device analysis. All answers provided.
A lot of work has gone into this and anyone teaching Die Verwandlung will find it an informative and interesting resource. It will save them a huge amount of time researching the background to Kafka, the genre and themes and I think it would also prove useful for university students reading this book.
