Death of a Salesman AQA Tragedy

(0)
A comprehensive resource (115 slides) which explores Death of a Salesman - focus on tragedy and the AQA Literature B spec, but the study of the play is detailed and explores all aspects of it as a dramatic work. Used with A Level Literature classes but can easy be modified. Very clear chronological structure and loads of activities - used to teach the play over the course of about 8 weeks.
