Idea 1:human experience of courage They examine experiences that are
represented in texts and they consider and reflect on human qualities and
emotions associated with, or arising from, those experiences.

1. Courage
2. Desire to escape
3. Facing reality
4. Facing darkness
5. Faith vs doubt
6. Inner vs outer strength
7. Heroism
8. Love and sacrifice
9. Optimism
10. Overcoming fear, vice



In a climate of war, the juxtaposing emotions of courage and fear arise as an inevitable
consequence t0 the complexities of the individual experience. Set amidst World War II Germany
and France, Doerr evinces the horrors of the war, retelling this dominant ‘war narrative’ through
a non-linear and multi-narrational plot to express the inconsistency of both the individual and
collective experience following their exposure to loss. This is exhibited through Doerr’s
characterisation of protagonist Marie Laure, who’s loss of her father transitions her dependent
nature into an independent individual. Initially Marie’s dependence on her father is conveyed
through the metaphor, “every second it feels as if her father slips farther away” exploring Maries
desolation following her father's disappearance. Despite this Maries experiences of loss forces
her to face reality and transitions her into a resilient and brave individual who renounces her

, English Advanced HSC


dependence on her father. Through her exclamation “he left me with nothing” Doerr exhibits
Maries inconsistent feelings to represent the juxtaposing feeling of doubt and faith faced by
individuals and the collective amidst loss. Doerr further highlights the transformation of the
human experience of courage through Marie’s uncle Etienne Leblanc who has not “gone
outside...not for years.” following his trauma instigated by the previous war. Despite this
Etienne is forced to overcome his trauma to save Marie. Doerr’s employment of truncated
sentences, “twenty heartbeats, thirty-five minutes. He twists the latch, opens the gate. Steps
outside,” conveys his newfound resilience reinforcing the inconsistency of the human experience
of courage through Etienne’s juxtaposing feelings of fear and determination. Thus, Anthony
Doerr’s utilisation of the historical fiction medium conveys the variability of the human
experience of courage and forces readers to challenge assumptions about humanity through
depicting the inconsistencies of human behaviour and motivations.

Idea 2: paradox “give insight into the anomalies, paradoxes and inconsistencies in
human behaviour and motivations”

11. Paradox
12. anomalies
13. inconsistencies
14. Subverted expectations
15. Morality
16. Chaos and order
17. Darkness and light
18. Good vs bad
19. Individual vs society
20. Knowledge vs injustice

Distinction between motivations that fulfill morality and patriotism is indispensable to the
individual as the inability to distinguish the two lead to inconsistencies in human behaviour,
making the individual unreliable in their alliances. During WWII soldiers on both sides were
killed for desertion and minor acts of subordination due to the inability to distinguish between
their morality and patriotism. Doerr mimics the indispensability to separate between the two
and its detrimental effects on the individual through the fates of his characters. This vacillation
is initially highlighted through Frederick, the paradigm of morality and justice, who under the
nazi youth is continuously oppressed by authority due to his minor subordination. Frederick’s
inability to differentiate between his morality and patriotism is exhibited through his assertion
“I will not!” representing his resistance to conform to the immoral acts expected by the
academic instructors. Such assertion however contrasts Fredericks tone of resignation “Father
needs me to be at Schulpforta. Mother too. It doesn’t matter what I want.” highlighting his
inability to disregard his patriotism as expressed through his parent’s wishes. Through his
indecision, Frederick ends up continuously tormented and even severely injured. The
detriments following the individuals inability to differentiate between their morality and
patriotism is further expressed through protagonist Werner who’s inability to differentiate the

, English Advanced HSC


two is evident through the hyperbole “Every part of him wants to scream Is this not wrong?...
But here it is right'' expressing his struggles between the two catalysing his inconsistencies
regarding his alliances. Such anomalies further lead to his death as expressed through the irony
“he steps on a trigger landmine set there by his own army” reaffirming his repercussion through
the irony of his death. Thus Anthony Doerr’s utilisation of his characters' struggles between
morality and patriotism through employing the historical fiction medium ignites insights on the
inconsistencies of the human experiences and motivations and how it catalyses paradoxical
human behaviours instigating the individuals unreliable regarding their alliances.




Idea 3: power of language and technology They may consider the role of
storytelling throughout time in communicating and reflecting the human
experience.

21. Power of technology
22. Patriotism
23. Indoctrination
24. Conditioning
25. Propaganda
26. Communication
27. Ignorance
28. Disillusionment
29. Manipulation
30. Nationalism
31. Power and corruption
32. Power of silence
33. Power of words
34. Vulnerability
35. Youth



The utilisation of language by political institutions can be detrimental as it functions to
manipulate the collective experience through enforcing a singular conformist narrative. During
WWII the use of radio was routinely exploited by the Nazi regime to inveigle the collective into
conforming to a national identity, through means of censoring and propaganda. Doerr alludes
to the Nazi regime’s exploitation of language in the metaphor “Radio: it ties a million ears to a
single mouth” as well as through Germas orders to the French residents of Saint Malo to
“relinquish all radio receivers” showcasing the power of technology through radio and its ability
to counteract the German indoctrination through the broadcast of antinationalistic messages.
Similarly this act of censoring through the use of language is further explored through Doerr's
employment of nationalistic dialogues throughout the book “You will eat country and breath

, English Advanced HSC


nation.” The effects of this indoctrination and conditioning is expressed through the effects on
the protagonist Werner who represents the naivety and occasional ignorance of the youth.
Amongst attending Hitler youth his exposure to the singular nationalistic identity is further
expressed through the realisation “never had Werner felt a part of something so single minded.”
reinforcing the conformity effect of a single story further representing Werner's Disillusionment
to represent the vulnerability of the youth mindset and their exposure to propagandic
conditioning. Thus Anthony Doerr exhibits the ability of stories to manipulate the individual
perspective through conveying the detrimental uses of language in the form of a single story by
political institutions through false information and propaganda.

Idea 4: human experience of trauma
36. War
37. trauma
38. Despair
39. desolation
40. Evil
41. Death
42. Racism
43. Darkness
44. Greed
45. Misery
46. Heartbreak
47. Betrayal
48. Injustice
49. Isolation
50. Loneliness
51. Loss of hope
52. Loss of innocence
53. Loss of honour
54. Loss of love
55. Pride and downfall
56. Self preservation
57. Self reliance
58. Temptation

The variability of the human experience especially amongst the climate of war is conspicuous
through the individual's exposure to juxtaposing feelings of trauma and determination. The
backdrop of WW2 in Doerr's novel depicts collective loss of hope through the universal
experiences of death and trauma that were contextually unanimous. These experience catalysed
the perpetuity of the human experience through conflicting feelings of despair and betrayal felt
by the collective. The perpetuity of the human experience is exhibited through Doerr's
characterisation of protagonist Marie-Laure who's loss of her father transitioned her from a
defenceless character into a self reliant individual. Initially Marie's dependence on her father, a
