I just finished reading Ulysses and your video really made for a great reference on Modernist literature , there were these elements(as mentioned) in the novel, since this was my first modernist novel I was baffled at first by the Stream of Consciousness technique but it ultimately grew on me and I was able to enjoy the novel immensely.
Your elaboration is magnificent and more focused of realism ... All these are exactly explained more clearly as it happened earlier and some are still persisting the society... A clear image u gave thank you.
Not wishing to take you to task, however, I checked out the Wikipedia entry concerning T.S.Eliot. His father and grandfather who lived in America, Saint Louis if my memory serves. T.S. Eliot tracing his ancestry to SW England and returning to England.
It must not necesarrily be internaly linked but i find it interesting that introspection goes hand in hand with the detachment from the world here. like the the things happening ( ww1 eg.) were to cruel and inhuman to be real. So the outside looked at as something unreal while the personal contemplation of it was the main concern. The world still was their home though .
This video was great! It made me understand the concept of the Modernism. By the way i was wondering, the video in 02:15. I would like to watch it fully, is there a link or something?
thank you so much about your video. I can understand clearly, and it's useful for me because I got this topic to do my assignment. could I make a reference from your video?
i really like the way youre replying to every comment; most of the youtubers dont bother to answer the questions, I subscribed mainly because of that :) oh and a very comprehensive video though.
Thanks. I try and reply to every comment, and especially love when people ask questions. My favourite teacher used to say that, "the mark of an intelligent person is the questions that they ask." For me, the beauty of educational videos is that they can start a conversation, and I hope to always answer questions. I am starting a new job in January, which may slow me down a little! Thanks again for your post.
hello! I'm doing a project/presentation in college on modernism and war poetry. This has been very helpful, thank you so much, but what is Wilfred Owen? surely a modernist poet? or a Georgian poet?
I'd class Wilfred Owen as a war poet, rather than a modernist. However, you have to remember that war poet and modernist are just labels. Owen may have characteristics of modernist poets. It would be a valuable exercise for you to draw up a table with characteristics from war poetry and modernist poetry, and you can analyse Owen's poetry against the table and make up your own mind as to where it fits.
War poetry can be best seen in Wilfred Owen's poems about grotesque scenes of war. I would say the direct difference is the representation of actual death as opposed to the figurative death of London for example in Eliot's Waste Land or Prufrock. I know some people who disagree with Eliot's views. So it's relative. But in the case of Owen's poetry one cannot help but see death staring them in the face. so it seems to me absolute.
Hi Phoebe. Thanks for your feedback. I made the video to introduce a Year 11 class (17 year-olds) to the context, ideas, values and structure of Modernist literature. The video is generalist, but it's a start. Next year, the students will be studying T.S. Eliot for their HSC. For any HSC students reading this who haven't chosen a related text, a Modernist text is an excellent option, as there is so much to write about media of production, textual form, perspective and choice of language. Sorry to get sidetracked Phoebe. I realise you may not even be Australian or a student, so I'll get back to your question. In researching the video, I realised that I haven't read many of the poets and novelists that are considered 'great' Modernist writers. The writers I have read and recommend are: James Joyce - I love his novels. Virginia Woolf - Has a very distinctive, feminist voice. T.S. Eliot - Writes beautiful, fractured poetry. Samuel Beckett - Wrote novels, poetry and plays. I'd recommend his plays, as representing the bleakness of Modernist art. There are lots more Modernist writers. Please let me know if you find a fantastic one that you would recommend. Happy reading.
Can u answer me quickly plz I need u answer some questions to me about modern drama What the nature of Md Major theme in md School and movement in Md Various techniques also in modern drama tomorrow I have lecture about it so u can answer me and I’ll be thankful for u 💞

Thank you very much .Your explanation is very helpful 😊
Even tho the voice isn"t clear this video is very INFORMATIVE
THANK YOU
Thank you! Now it's time to crank out this essay over modernist poets changing the nature of poetry
yeah crank it baby
I've watched this video and the video you did about Postmodernism. I have to say they are superb! Absolutely superb!
Southern Biscuits thanks for your lovely feedback.
@@flippinenglish2054 I tend to feel inferior talents that mock Eliot are w**kers myself.
Thank you for this! just starting my literature journey in undergraduate level and this provided clarity :)
Thank you greatly for taking the time to make this! Brilliantly informative and yet, not overwhelming.
You're welcome. Thank you.
Easy to understand it. Thanx. But u must add Sigmund Freud Effect, John Locke, Darwinism, Newton etc which induced people to MAKE IT NEW
Aamir Kazmi great ideas. I will definitely add all those thinkers in Modernism 2 if I make it.😀
@@flippinenglish2054 you guys are outstanding
Not wishing to take you to task, however, I checked out the Wikipedia entry concerning T.S.Eliot. His father and grandfather who lived in America, Saint Louis if my memory serves. T.S. Eliot tracing his ancestry to SW England and returning to England.
Yeats, Kafka and Plath are very worth mentioning in this video.
Yeats especially

Flippin' English thank you, I've read that some people see war poetry as a 'sub genre' of Modernism.
Can you send what you explained as PDE
“Thought process” means “thoughts.”
thank you for this video it's so helpful.
Brilliant. What are the differences and similarities between war poetry and modernist poetry?
War poetry can be best seen in Wilfred Owen's poems about grotesque scenes of war. I would say the direct difference is the representation of actual death as opposed to the figurative death of London for example in Eliot's Waste Land or Prufrock. I know some people who disagree with Eliot's views. So it's relative. But in the case of Owen's poetry one cannot help but see death staring them in the face. so it seems to me absolute.
Thanks for the video I really liked it - could you possibly recommend me some of your favourite modernist novels/poems? :)
