Tailored to the A Level AQA English Literature course, these are 4 x A3 sized essay plans for the comparative essay between 'The Great Gatsby' and the AQA Pre-1900 Love through the Ages Poetry Anthology helped me get an A* in English Literature, and will help you too! These plans contain related references to AO1, AO2 (language techniques), AO3 (contextual references), AO4 (links to wider texts) and AO5 (literary critics and theories) to both Gatsby and the pre-1900 anthology poems. Themes include barriers to love, value of love, society, sexual desire, and submission. IMPORTANT NOTE, PLEASE READ: Because the file is in A3 format, sometimes the AO5 column will appear cut off. If this is the case, please send me a message and I'll be more than happy to help you!

You can't download the actual plans without the PDF chopping off a lot of the document - very poor.
