If you listen carefully, Dawid, you can hear my daughter and partner rolling their eyes at this! Bless your heart for the positive feedback though. Mr Taylor
I just wanted to say thank you so much for your Christmas carol and an inspector calls video, they really helped me during the exams, keep doing what your doing and I'm sure many other students will feel as thankful for your work as I do!
Appreciate the sentiment. As I've said before, I make mere pennies off these videos so my only real satisfaction lies in hearing students are benefiting from them! All the best for results day, Mr Taylor.
Thank you so much for your amazing videos, I have taken so much from them! I hope that I can achieve my desired grade 7 next year! Is it possible for me to send you an essay I have completed so that you can mark it? Thank you again!
Appreciate the kind comments, Bib. Unfortunately, I can't mark work; I find it galling enough marking my own students' work; definitely the part of the job I like least. Kind regards, Mr Taylor
Just wanted to say your videos are proving a godsend when I help my nephew with his English. A quick question: She Walks In Beauty is a Romantic poem that "rebels" against Enlightenment but is Sonnet 43 not part of the Romantic Era too, and yet it hints at embracing Enlightenment? How can we square those two things? Thanks in advance.
Many thanks for your kind comments. With regard to your query, I'll be awkward and say that both poems- to a lesser or greater extent- convey Romantic ideas (though, as you say, Sonnet 43 is not of the era). My 'bumper-sticker' definition for Romanticism is 'a surplus of emotion', and both texts foreground the heady joy of sexual/romantic excitement. As you know, it is fine to cite similarities or differences between the texts, so contrasting Byron's defiance of the Enlightenment with Browning's tacit support for the Enlightenment through her marginalisation of religion ("lost saints" ) is absolutely fine. Regards, JT
Can you tell me the rhyme scheam of this poem and the effect of that rhyme scheam along with what meter is it written in ie: Iambic pentameter, tetrameter e.t.c Thank-You!
