1. Thematic strand-
Body, lips, eyes, neck, nose, hands, ears, legs, feet
2a. Where does the data appear?
Shakespeare uses imagery of body parts throughout the entire play. I found that Act 1, Act 2, and Act 5 have body parts being mentioned multiple times within each of the acts.
2b. In what context?
In the beginning of the play Shakespeare uses body parts to show feelings towards another person. But towards the end body parts lead to a lot of fighting because people think Viola and Sebastian are the same person
3. Obsessive use of the data retrieved?
Shakespeare uses body parts a lot to make you feel how he wants you to feel

Usefullness
After using the Shakespeare concordance i found out that it was very useful. It is useful because it can help you find a theme of a story by just putting in a few words. For example body parts. When you put different body parts in you find out that in the beginning of the story body parts are used for love but in the end they show how looks can hurt people.
Prelim findings
In the Shakespeare concordance i used body parts. In my preliminary findings i noticed that body parts are mostly used to talk about how people like each others physical appearance. It is used to show how people love each other because of how they look. But then at the end i noticed that body parts started hurting people because people thought that viola and Sebastian were the same person so they started trying to hurt them and other people.

Paper 1 experience
For me, writing the small object/large subject essay was both fun but tough. I think that it was a fun essay to do because i got to write about something that i know about. Almost every essay I have had to write was about a topic that i had no interest in. This cause me to not want to write the essay so i wouldn't end up doing my best on it. But because it was something that i know a lot about and enjoy i did a better job because i wanted to write it. The essay was also tough though because it wasn't that easy to make the examples. It was hard for me to connect my object to what society feels and use example for it. But in the end i did have fun and i did a pretty good job on the essay.
