VIC Promoting a book on women's condition

Women’s condition was first considered through images and texts in the argumentative literature or the press, then each student approached it through a particular aspect in literature : they chose a work according to its literary genre (novel, short story, theater, speech ...), the country and the time where it was written or in which the story took place. 
Then, they wrote a plea in which they had :

-to get personally involved on women’s condition

-to show that they knew well the work they had read 

-to respect the criterias about writing a speech that they had previously listed and analyzed with their teacher by reading and comparing different speeches from Antiquity (the Latin orators Cicero and Quintilian) to the present day (a corpus of excerpts from political speeches given by Simone Veil in favor of abortion legislation in France, Robert Badinter in favor of the abolition of the death penalty in France, Dominique de Villepin against the war in Iraq, and Greta Thunberg on climate change).
Finally, they edited a first video in which they gave their speech : they filled out an evaluation grid asking themselves how to improve their plea and sent their video to a classmate who filled out the same grid. Then they edited a second video in which they tried to address the areas for improvement that had been written in the two evaluation grids.

Each student sent his or her video to the teacher, who selected ten of them and showed them to the class, so that they could compare the representations of women’s condition in works from different literary genres written at different times and in different countries.
