Lockdown Literature 3.2

Hi folks,

I hope everyone is okay.

Here’s the next set of tasks for you:

1) Do this recap quiz on Chapter 39.

2) Make sure you’ve added annotations on this key chapter (sorry I sent them late) using my notes.

3) Learn about how the criminal justice and prison system has changed over time by using the following resources (make notes on the first two if you like, but no more than a page):

• Victorian Prisons andPunishments – The British Library
• Victorian Police and Prisons –Adam Hart-Davis (YouTube) (you've probably already seen this one)
• Inside Wandsworth Prison (BBC) – Part 1 and Part 2  (just watch this one for interest’s sake – it’s a grim look inside a Victorian-era prison in 2016)
  

When you’ve read/watched these resources (note-taking is optional), you should be able to answer the following questions (don’t do it on paper though – that’s too much! Just think about them…):

4) Read the next two chapters, 40 and 41, by Tuesday.

Again, I’m trying to strike a balance between doing what we would have done anyway and not overloading you with stuff to do. Don’t spend much more than an hour on this work. It might take 1 hr 15 (including the reading) – but don’t do more than that.

I hope that all makes sense. If not – please ask! I’ll send my notes on 40-41 later today.

P.S. Here’s couple of images from my lesson notebook for this chapter. This updated 'Pip's London' map shows where Pip is living now:

An old picture of Garden-Court in the Temple (imagine Pip in a room near the river at the end):

Here's some notes with details that foreshadow the convict's reappearance:

Finally, here’s a link to an old blogpost of mine about Dickens’s London.
