Heart Of Darkness - Discussion and Analysis
Переглядів 3,2 тис.4 роки тому
College is cancelled. Watch this mini-lecture and wash your hands. Conrad's most enduring novella is rich and complex; in this lecture, we'll discuss some of the main currents animating the work and literary criticism of it Gender, Class, Race, and Hegemony (both Political and Cultural). There's a side-helping of "voicedness" and hypocognition at work, as well. Enjoy.
5:58 Jump scare with that transition. Nice video.
You should get rid of the background music because it's too distracting but otherwise thank you so much for the analysis!
Thank you! Very thoughtful and useful
Hey, bald leftist guy, develop a personality and you might get more subscribers and a decent woman.
This was very helpful. I quite enjoyed the way you talk and the words you use. They work so well to convery your ideas. I'd love to become proficient at English to be able to talk the way you do.
very helpful, many thanks for making this video.
What an incredibly well researched video. Good show good show.
I read the book assigned for a class but enjoyed it so much I wanted to hear a breakdown off it ty!
Maynnnnnnnnn ♡
This analysis reminds me of Dr. Raja’s more Marxist analysis.
Though I would seriously argue it’s not anti imperialism, it’s very much pro. Marlow or Conrad never condemn imperialism, nor extractivist short term colonialism. He just prefers a lighter version of them.
great video. you're quite charismatic!
brilliant
Good job with the analysis
Man I wish you could just help me write an essay on this novel 😪
No promises...but I’ll do what I can. Litincorona@gmail.com
@@literatureinthetimeofcoron9286 omg really?!? Thank you 🙏🏽😊
If you could please send me the paper for a reference readings. pls pls pls.
Thanks for this analysis. I enjoyed it.
What's the name of the analyst?
Hi! Which analyst? If you mean the very handsome, very bald man in the blue pullover, he goes by “Death Weasel” or “Jared;” your pick (w/ strong preference for the first). Hope you enjoyed the video!
Sir, I was in your EN102 class second semester AY-20 and I remember watching these videos from home after we left. I just realized that I'm still subscribed to your channel. I find it amusing that this video now has 1000+ views from random people who needed some help with Morrison. I hope your new assignment is treating you well. -Rob
Hey! I hate that coronavirus shut down that semester; I was having so much fun with y’all. I put the videos on UA-cam because I didn’t want to mess with a large file size on Blackboard; it has been amusing and kinda gratifying to see others gain some benefit from that happy accident. We’re enjoying Ansbach and looking forward to the end of the “coronavirus emergency brake” in June. Even here, though, I miss our class and miss teaching...though Jenny is clear that she does not miss lower Upstate New York, haha. I hope you’re doing well and that springtime boosts morale. Stay in touch!
Reading it now. So riveting
I agree, it’s a great novel but also very special in being a great “classroom” novel. There’s so much going on that nearly any reader can find something to dive into, and it balances beautiful language with narrative economy in an exceptional way.
Thank you for the video
Thank you for your kind comment!
I cant get pass the loud music
Apologies; I was on a tight timeline trying to get these out for classes that unexpectedly went virtual. The music covers up the buzzing of my monitor and my kids’ screaming. I’ll pay attention to the volume in any future videos. I hope the video helped somehow, though!
life saver for a 4 page essay due tonight!!
It only takes a minute if all you have is a minute.. Leave some time for revisions; otherwise, pressure fuels creativity!
If you have completed that essay could you please send it me for a reference reading
wanna send me it?
how does religion and capitalism further entrench "male social priveleges"? come on man...
I’m open to admitting I’m wrong but I feel the statement is a fair one, at least on the surface. Abrahamic religions require the wife’s submission to the husband on penalty of eternal torture. And men overwhelmingly control the world’s wealth, meaning they enter most social negotiations from a position of power. One effect of this inheritance is that CEOs and Members of Congress dwarf the number of women in those positions, so men (still) predominantly shape our world even as we cheer on the democratization of power.
Thank you very much, I needed this because I need to write a 4 page essay on this :)
I’m so happy you enjoyed it and I hope the paper was a successful one!
Have you written the paper ? If yes could you please send me copy for me reference reading.
wanna send me it
This helped me pass my literature class. Literally. Thank you! <3
So happy it helped. Thanks for your kind words!
TRUMP 2020
The Ven Diagram overlap of people who watch Toni Morrison literary criticism videos and people who support President Trump has to be razor thin. I obviously disagree with your politics but have to admit you’re an exceptional person.
@@literatureinthetimeofcoron9286 looooooooool totally agree
biden2020 clown
lmfao you thought
why the background music?
I was locked down in NY with a baby and 5-year old; I have no logical explanation for anything that occurred between March and July 2020.
@@literatureinthetimeofcoron9286 did not expect this response lol
