Our group (Me, Josh and Collin) have been progressing in our project in the past few weeks. We have also altered our research question quite a few times.
First, we decided to focus on romanticism by using Beauty and the Beast and The Phantom of the Opera texts. But then we wanted to concentrate mainly on dark romanticism, since it would contain darker and more interesting elements. However, we realised that both texts are not written in the 19th century, so we had to change our focus to other texts.
In the end, we changed our texts to Les Misérables and The Hunchback of Notre Dame, and because these two stories, especially Les Misérables, does not have a lot of dark romanticism elements, we changed our main focus back to just romanticism.
We have already produced a video explaining the Romanticism elements in Les Misérables, and we are currently working on a poster to describe the elements in The Hunchback of Notre Dame. We are hoping to finish this project as soon as possible.
