stories or literary text and write your interpretation
in the story.
HOW TO ADAPT A LITERARY TEXT
LITERARY TEXT ADAPTATION
Figures of speech
(June 4, 2019)
Allusion
• Reference to a person, place or thing outside of the
confines of the poem
Characters/events in Mythology/Bible Another
Literary Work/Contemporary
Example:
“ The couple went to adam’s grocery store and stole an
apple”
Apostrophe
• Address to an inanimate object, a muse, God or an absent
or deceased person.
• The speaker is trying to communicate with someone or
something unable to respond.
Example:
Death Be Not Proud- John Donne
Death, be not proud though some have called thee
Hyperbole
• Exaggerated statement employing inflated language.
Example:
“She was the most talented and beautiful girl in the world.”

Litotes
• Understatement in which the affirmative is implied by
denying its opposite.
Example: “She was not bad looking.” (She is beautiful)
METAPHOR
• Comparison in which something is compared to others.

METONYMY
• One word or image is used to represent another with which
is closely associated.

 Oxymoron
• Contradiction that seemingly cannot be resolved.
Example:
“Parting is such sweet sorrow”

Paradox

 ACTIVITY 8 (OCT 3, 2019)
Watching Filipinos Walk Along
By __________________________
Adapted from the poem “Watching
People Walk Along” By Juan Gelman
 Watching people walk along, put on a suit,
a hat, an expression and a smile,
watching them bent over their plates eating patiently,
work hard, run, suffer, cringe in pain,
all just for a little peace and happiness,
watching people, I say it’s hardly fair
to punish their bones and their hopes
or distort their songs or darken their day,
yes, watching
people weep in the most hidden corners
of the soul and still be able
to laugh and walk with dignity,
watching people, well, watching them
have children and hope and always
believe things will get better
and seeing them fight to stay alive,
I tell them,
It’s beautiful to walk along with you
to discover the source of new things,
 to get at the root of happiness
to bring the future in on our backs, to address
time on familiar terms and know
we’ll end up finding lasting happiness,
tell them, it’s beautiful, what a great mystery
to live treated like dirt
yet sing and laugh,
how strange!

THE SILENCE
OF SNOW
(Excerpt from
Snow)
by Orhan Pamuk
(Turkey)
• ORHAN PAMUK was born in Istanbul in 1952
• Grew up in a large family
• As he writes in his autobiographical book Istanbul,
from his childhood until the age of 22 he devoted
himself largely to painting and dreamed of becoming
an artist.
• After graduating from the secular American Robert
College in Istanbul, he studied architecture at Istanbul
Technical University for three years, but abandoned
the course when he gave up his ambition to become
an architect and artist.
• He went on to graduate in journalism from Istanbul
University, but never worked as a journalist.
• At the age of 23 Pamuk decided to become a
novelist, and giving up everything else retreated into
his flat and began to write.
About the novel…
Snow is a novel by Turkish writer Orhan Pamuk.
Published in Turkish in 2002, it was translated into
English by Maureen Freely and published in 2004.

Originally published: 2002

Author: Orhan Pamuk
Original language:Turkish
Original title: Kar
Genres: Novel, Fiction
After twelve years of political exile in Germany, the Turkish poet Ka returns to his native Istanbul for
his mother’s funeral. There he is asked by a friend at a newspaper to travel to the remote Anatolian
town of Kars to report on the municipal elections, as well as on a disturbing series of suicides by
women who have been forbidden by the secular government to wear their head scarves at school.
He arrives in Kars in the midst of a snowstorm that lasts for three days, cutting the town off from the
greater world, and is quickly drawn into an intricate set of circumstances. He meets his beautiful
friend Ipek, who has recently separated from her husband, and quickly falls in love with her. He
witnesses an assassination, finds himself discussing the possible existence of God with an idealistic
student from the Islamic high school, is taken to a meeting with a reputed Islamic terrorist and, after
four years without writing a single poem, is visited with a series of poems that arrive fully formed in
his mind. While the reason for the women’s suicides remains a mystery, Ka is caught up in a
theatrically staged military coup intended to punish the political Islamists whose power is on the rise
in Kars. Balancing empathy and wit, irony and pathos, Snow illuminates the profound difficulties and
contradictions of life in lands like Turkey, where western-style democracy and Islamic
fundamentalism are dangerously at odds. Snow is a riveting and important work by one of
contemporary fiction’s most brilliant practitioners.

 PURPOSE OF FORMAL EDUCATION
• They provide knowledge which may be used to enhance
capitalist profitability.
• They help to socialize pupils , not to accept norms and values
which are beneficial for all members of society, [as argued by
Functionalists] but to accept a ruling class ideology which
sustains capitalist inequalities and the economic and political
dominance of the capitalist ruling class.
• They help to produce new generations of workers with
characteristics suitable for exploitation by the capitalist system .
• They help to allocate new workers to the new roles on the
apparently meritocratic basis of individual ability but in reality the
educational system of role allocation operates to the advantage
of middle and upper class students and at the expense of
working class students.
• In helping to sustain the myth that individuals are allocated to
work roles on the basis of meritocracy, education systems help to
sustain the further myth that substantial income and wealth
inequalities are fair because they arise out of differences in
natural ability and differences in effort. Formal education systems
legitimise inequality.
• In these ways, according to Marxists, formal education systems
help to reproduce capitalist class structures.
Purpose of Non-Formal Education

• Education is a lifelong process to develop human

capital
• Lifelong lessons would require an additional continuum
from primary education onward effectively integrating
academic and professional skills and professional skills
to coup with technological changes.
• Non-Formal Education is a supplementary education
process which has to meet similar demand, not mere
literacy or basic education.

• Drifted Dissenters (refers to those SBNRs who, for a multitude of reasons, fell out of touch with
organized religion and chose never to go back)

there. It is important to note that for these SBNRs, although they are hoping to
become fully integrated in their newfound spiritual identities, the process of
acclimation is difficult and often disconcerting.

SUNS
• Khaled Hosseini was born in Kabul, Afghanistan, in
1965. His father was a diplomat in the Afghan Foreign
Ministry and his mother taught Farsi and history at a
high school in Kabul. In 1976, the Foreign Ministry
relocated the Hosseini family to Paris. They were ready
to return to Kabul in 1980, but by then their homeland
had witnessed a bloody communist coup and the
invasion of the Soviet Army.
• The Hosseinis sought and were granted political
asylum in the United States, and in September 1980
moved to San Jose, California. Hosseini graduated
from high school in 1984 and enrolled at Santa
Clara University, where he earned a bachelor’s
degree in biology in 1988. The following year he
entered the University of California, San Diego,
School of Medicine, where he earned a medical
degree in 1993. He completed his residency at
Cedars-Sinai medical center in Los Angeles and
was a practicing internist between 1996 and 2004.
• In March 2001, while practicing medicine, Hosseini
began writing his first novel, The Kite Runner, which
was published by Riverhead Books in 2003. That
debut went on to launch one of the biggest literary
careers of our time. Today, Khaled Hosseini is one of
the most recognized and bestselling authors in the
world. His books, The Kite Runner, A Thousand
Splendid Suns, and And the Mountains Echoed, have
been published in over seventy countries and sold
more than 40 million copies worldwide.
• In 2006 Khaled was appointed a Goodwill
Ambassador for UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency.
Inspired by a trip he made to Afghanistan with the
UNHCR, he later established The Khaled Hosseini
Foundation, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, which provides
humanitarian assistance to the people of
Afghanistan. He lives in Northern California with his
wife and two children.
