Introduction
This is an example submitted by Zoe Combe, a former student at the University College of London. In this short film, Combe uses Mayra Santos Febres’ Sirena Selena vestida de pena in response to a well-known Judith Butler quote.
Assessment
The assignment was part of the module ‘Women’s Writing in Latin America’. The assessment of the module was as follows:
- A 1500 word commentary (40%)
- A 3000 words essay or a creative response piece along with 1500 word critical reflection (60%)
Combe’s work is an example of the latter.
Rationale
Creative work allowed students to react to core texts from a practical perspective, as well as engaging with ideas of gender as seen on the course.
