Friedrich

If you have been paying attention in class, the following task will be easy!

1) Summarise, in 50 words, the change in Friedrich's character from the beginning of the novel to the end.

That's it!

Point of View

We talked a little about the author's purpose in writing 'Friedrich'. One point that was raised was that perhaps the author wanted to give a German's perspective of what happened during that time.

Think about how the narrator and his parents were portrayed in the novel.

1) Name one incident in which the narrator's father was faced with a difficult situation in which he has to choose between his family and his support for Friedrich and his parents.

2) What decision did he make in the end? Put yourself in his shoes and explain why you reached that decision.
