Summary
Details

Discovery - an Area of Study provides a wide ranging textual study of the notions underpinning the concept of discovery, with emphasis on: Defining and identifying conceptual meaning; Examining the process of representing and communicating meaning within texts; Evaluating textual form, structure and language; Interpretation of conceptual links between texts. It provides detailed analysis, questions and exercises for a broad range of 'discovery' texts prescribed for the NSW Higher School Certificate exam 2015-2020. Deconstruction of ideas, techniques and stylistic methods help clarify how composers explore the experiential process of discovery that may take physical, intellectual or spiritual form. Textual re-evaluation includes, where appropriate, the varied triggers for and ramifications of what can be discovered or rediscovered, about people, places and events. Discovery - an Area of Study has a strong conceptual focus and textual evaluation of how composers develop and effectively convey abstract ideas in varied ways. Photocopiable student worksheets are provided throughout the book making this an invaluable resource for study. The inclusion of a wide cross-section of the prescribed texts will enable teachers and students to better understand the timeless relevance of this Area of Study.
