I'm not a native English speaker, This makes it harder for me understand literature, especially the old English words. This video really helped me, thanks 🌹
How do you know the good, in the absence of bad? How can we say we are happy if don`t know how it feels to be sad. Thank you, love your interpretations of poems...keep up the good work😊
How can you say we are happy if we don’t know how it feels to be sad?This is magnificently written by Khalill Gibran in his poem on joy and sorrow .a great Persian poet.
The spelling is important, it gives a direction to the intended pronunciation. In the intended pronunciation there is more harmony within the entirety of the poem, the accents, the cadence, the vowels, the rhythm of the consenents. Remember it is not written with an American accent in mind. Try to play with your vowel formations to create harmony and you can see a beautiful hypnotic pulse emerge.
I need to take a minute to thank you. i am NOT a poet by any means. your clear and concise explanations of these poems have helped me significantly in my literature class. my grade would not be as good as it is without you. thank you!
Blake's questioning divine creation. Further, hes suggesting that each of the very specialized features of the thing, tiger, have specific, survival reasons, not capricious, superflous or arbitrary features a divine creation would show.
I enjoyed your input on this, since I’m going to play a YT video version to my classes, young Taiwanese adults, playing it more for the drama, depth and superb imagery of it, which I know they will sense between the lines. I liked your reference to duality, though you didn’t go into that much. In my view, the seemingly opposite instincts or energies of tiger and lamb exist within us, ready for potential integration and expression and each has their appropriate time and place. (Though I don’t think Blake was trying to say that). 😅
Giovana Rodrigues I had a beloved friend from Brasil, Alberto Aguas, who used to read his favorite poet to me, both in Portuguese and English. Alberto died in 1992, just two weeks after my wedding.
Reading the variety of comments/opinions .... Thx for YOUR commentary on one of the most influential poems of My life [brought to my attention by Tangerine Dream] ..... I truly believe this Blake poem & TD's/Froese's music has added at least 14 years to my earthly journey .... [Not so sure I have a solid gratitude for the added years BUT I Am grateful for the added Spirit that makes the time bearable]
Great analysis! Your videos help me with my summer classes in British literature. From my understanding, isn't best to say that the beast is the devil since he is this powerful and frightening creature?
As I understand it, Romantic Poetry especially looked to ancient Greece and Rome for inspiration. I heard that the Romans used to think that the stars were holes in the dome of the sky and that above it was water. So, the stars were the holes that the rain came from. Maybe Blake meant the Spears as a metaphor for long raindrops in addition to the other connotations the professor explained.
Tyger Tyger, burning bright, In the forests of the night; What immortal hand or eye, Could frame thy fearful symmetry? In what distant deeps or skies. Burnt the fire of thine eyes? On what wings dare he aspire? What the hand, dare seize the fire? And what shoulder, & what art, Could twist the sinews of thy heart? And when thy heart began to beat, What dread hand? & what dread feet? What the hammer? what the chain, In what furnace was thy brain? What the anvil? what dread grasp, Dare its deadly terrors clasp! When the stars threw down their spears And water'd heaven with their tears: Did he smile his work to see? Did he who made the Lamb make thee? Tyger Tyger burning bright, In the forests of the night: What immortal hand or eye, Dare frame thy fearful symmetry?
ya. it is a little difficult to feel the heart of the poem as most of us didn't know much about the tiger or even have any contact at all with the tiger. Good thing we have internet and learn much about tiger with tons of videos on tigers these days. :)
"When the stars threw down their spears/And water'd heaven with their tears" is difficult -- maybe a private symbolism since Blake was such a mystic? The key for me is the word "when." With those 2 lines Blake is establishing a certain point in time or creation *when* he smiled to see his work (or did he) in making the tiger. If I could figure out just what point in time that was (when the stars threw spears & cried tears), I might understand the poem better. Thank you for your thoughtful analysis. Such an enjoyable way to learn.
"The fifth stanza is more puzzling, but ‘stars’ have long been associated with human destiny (as the root of ‘astrology’ highlights). For Kathleen Raine, this stanza can be linked with another of William Blake’s works, The Four Zoas, where the phrase which we also find in ‘The Tyger’, ‘the stars threw down their spears’, also appears. There it is the godlike creator of the universe (Urizen in Blake’s mythology) who utters it; Urizen’s fall, and the fall of the stars and planets, are what brought about the creation of life on Earth in Blake’s Creation story. " Copied from : interestingliterature.com/2017/03/16/a-short-analysis-of-william-blakes-the-tyger/
The stars symbolize the angels, as in the stars of Hollywood representing the fallen angels that give the gift of acting. The stars throwing spears refers to the war in heaven when one third of them were cast down to earth because of their rebellion. Their tears is because of the great rift between them and their first dominion they can never regain.
could we also argue that this beauty of the tiger is a metaphor for how vein society is, in the sense that all this beauty is also accompanied by a bad/dangerous side?
The stars and their spears can be an allusion to Milton, thus referring to the war in heaven before creation. The implication of this would extend to making this poem a short of theodicy, if you consider natural evil.
wow. I just can't believe the coincidence. just recently I started following the professor, primarily because in my masters syllabus consisted of stuff that she had analysed here on the UA-cam channel. I passed the semester and now have a new syllabus and here we go, the latest upload by ma'am is Blake songs of I n E, which happens to be my current academic undertaking. :)
Hi Rebecca while listening to your explanation of the poem something came to mind regarding the first two lines of the fifth stanza. The stars have probably given up their monopoly as rulers of the night and being the sole objects in the universe to glow in the night and they're filled with tears as on the other now, after the creation of the tiger something else would glow at night(tiger's eyes). They won't remain the sole illuminators of the night. Please share your views on this interpretation Regards
I agree with you on the interpretation of the stars throwing down beams of light in a way thst they are very much like us, humans. They surround the planet and for that they know about what happens all around the world. In that way, their act of enlightening the tiger makes alusion to our awareness of the beast, since they (the stars ) could only see god's creation after throwing some light on it. Then they cried just like we panic with awereness of how powerful a tiger is. Then he askes if god was happy with that. Thoughts on this anyone?
Personally I believe Spears and Waters the Stars produce could elude to the natural process of planetary irrigation. The Duality exemplified in such way, is inextricably bound to human needs and survival. As I have framed it, the example guids me to the same conclusion you expressed. Should he have done as I expressed, it could mean he was an environmentally friendly individual in a time where industry was all the rage.
The last line of the first stanza has an extra syllable which throws off the "symmetry" of the poem which mirrors the dread tiger. No longer is this the world of the lamb where everything makes sense. Now we are left with questions. Not to mention the the tiger eats the lamb.
Unintended consequence- symmetry was said differently in the time the poem was written . Symmetry was likely said like “semi” “try” not “semi” “tree.” Shakespeare is also full of different phrasings that when said correctly fix the rhyme scheme .
What is the nature of God ? To me, this Great and Terrible poem challenges us to ponder, honestly, this Awe-full question. "Did He who made the Lamb make Thee..?" is , to me, one of the most difficult and disturbing ideas to confront, and to Try to answer, in life.. especially Spiritual Life..and people have been debating it for centuries..I think Blake implies His answer..This is Scary Stuff : a "song of experience" to be sure.. Thank You !
Your wonderful critic is the best I’ve experienced! On the first read of ‘The Tyger’ I understood The Lamb metaphor to be The Christ....... Truly a powerful poem, thank you!
I just wouldn't call the 'tyger' as dark': Dark is unconscious in our shadow, for me... Tyger creature-liness (however fearful is to us, our mortal selves indeed, is beautiful, almost cute, but yes, forged in the Fire, so Alive is the tyger, when we look at a tiger., s/he is so full of 'natureous' life, in a fiery way, burning indeed brightly; and FORGED in the fire~...; symmetry reminds us how beautiful it is... 'Dread' is a dramatic word for me, makes me eyes water when read this bit, (like the stars!) 'what dread hands, what dread feet'; what an Audacious creation & Creature!
Madam, please make more videos. You are not making any videos these days. I am from india. I recently cleared JRF exam. I get seat and scholarship to do my PhD...
@@SixMinuteScholar thank you so much. I am in need of somebody who can guide me to prepare my research proposal to present in the interview. I am not getting any ideas madam. Please guide me..
maybe he is talking about when the stars fall and its judgment day or the last day in this universe and life is about to seize existence, did he plan this, did he intend for this to happen. I don't think smile is actually smiling(physically) I think it means foreseeing the future this is my opinion I don't know :)

everyones wrong when blake says When the stars threw down their spears And water'd heaven with their tears: Did he smile his work to see? Did he who made the Lamb make thee? he actually is compairing the tiger to the fallen angel lucifer,who now maybe is satan
I have to appear my exam tomorrow and have nothing prepared..XD But I understood something from the video.. Thank you so much..At list I can write something now..lol
The stars throw down their spears and water heaven with their tears: For this image two thoughts: (1) I imagine the stars surrendering to God's Will, throwing down their spears as they surrender and sad because they don't agree with God's decision to create a world that includes the Tyger, but they must accept it. So the stars are like angels and this refers to the idea of a war in heaven between angelic and demonic forces, and yet the twist is that the rebellious angels rebel because they disagree with God's plan/creation of a world that allows for disobedience, darkness, dread, and danger. (2) The image suggests a medieval cosmology reference to me, but sorry I haven't tried to pin this down. But C.S. Lewis has written on understanding literature with reference to medieval ideas about the world. A quick search and I found this website which might have something relating stars to watering the earth: blogs.getty.edu/iris/written-in-the-stars-astronomy-and-astrology-in-medieval-manuscripts/ Thank you for your very helpful - brief yet understandable - introduction to this amazing poem. The Tom O'Bedlam version of the poem - you have probably already seen it, but if not that's what brought me here and it's a wonderful rendition - the music and visual and voice just perfect for this poem.
Science evolves as years pass..And ,yes,tiger is the wildest of all animals on Earth,the most capable hunter and the most efficient killer.But a!so,tiger has the largest brain af all felines and the most complex one,and a study came up with the impressive conclusion that tigers reach almost 70% of depth and complexity of the human feelings..A giand Siberian tiger named Neron,(385 kg at its prime)was living with a Canadian couple.The husband was closer to the tiger,they were spending many hours a day at the forest.One day,the man died.When the tiger realized that his best friend will never come back,he refused to eat since then.Neron died from starvation a few weeks later...he died on his beloved rug....And another story:At a village of Siberia(unfortunately,I don't remember the village name),a wounded tiger came to a man's house seeking for help.The man found the courage to set the tiger free from the trap.The tiger, although in great pain,showed no signs of agressiveness to her saviour.When she was set free,she disappeared at the snowy forest.A few weeks later,the man woke up in the morning and went to open the front door of his wooden house.But the door seemed to be stucked.He came out of a window...when he raised his head,he felt like he was thunderstrucked:the tiger he helped,was 70 meters away staring at him...Full of mixed feelings,the man decided to see what was blocking his front door....It was a dead dear!!!The tiger killed the deer and brought it to the man that saved her as a gift,to thank him!!!..When the tiger made sure that the man was aware of her gift,she went back to the forest.Conclusions1):A human being is capable of the best,and also the worst.2)Animals aren't good or bad.Their instinct is higher than humans, they are not greed.3)You love a human being,yet he may betray you.You show love to an animal,it will show more love to you....General conclusion:love is so strong,it can make the wildest animal your best friend,even a member of your family
When the stars threw down their spears And water'd heaven with their tears: An illusion to the fallen angels? Did he smile his work to see? Did he who made the Lamb make thee? God made Jesus the Lamb to counter Lucifer. And God also made Lucifer.
I find this comment very distasteful. What does one's hair colour have to do with you. People should not have to apologize for the colour of their hair. Nonsense! You look unique and beautiful Ms. Rebecca. Don't be sorry

I would love if you could do a video on "Where are you going, where have you been?" by Joyce Carol Oates. Great content by the way!
Such a disturbing story -- but a good one to analyze! I'll add that to my list. Thanks!
In Blake’s Early Modern English ‘eye’ /əi/ (and indeed ‘I’) does in fact rhyme with ‘symmetry’.
Good point! I love knowing this! Thank you!
ma'am can you please come up with the Wordsworthian prelude after this :) :) :) and thanks a lot for this one.
Thank you for making this video!
Tyger Tyger, burning bright,
In the forests of the night;
What immortal hand or eye,
Could frame thy fearful symmetry?
In what distant deeps or skies.
Burnt the fire of thine eyes?
On what wings dare he aspire?
What the hand, dare seize the fire?
And what shoulder, & what art,
Could twist the sinews of thy heart?
And when thy heart began to beat,
What dread hand? & what dread feet?
What the hammer? what the chain,
In what furnace was thy brain?
What the anvil? what dread grasp,
Dare its deadly terrors clasp!
When the stars threw down their spears
And water'd heaven with their tears:
Did he smile his work to see?
Did he who made the Lamb make thee?
Tyger Tyger burning bright,
In the forests of the night:
What immortal hand or eye,
Dare frame thy fearful symmetry?

The stars and their spears can be an allusion to Milton, thus referring to the war in heaven before creation. The implication of this would extend to making this poem a short of theodicy, if you consider natural evil.

The stars throw down their spears and water heaven with their tears: For this image two thoughts: (1) I imagine the stars surrendering to God's Will, throwing down their spears as they surrender and sad because they don't agree with God's decision to create a world that includes the Tyger, but they must accept it.

I would think the Stars are angels, in reference to the Bible
It's actually a contradictory title for a “MAN”
Himself
He used sight rhymes. And could you please put the microphone closer to you next time?
Ironical, the guy who wrote the Lamb and wrote the Tyger, two masterpieces, is questioning God for creating the same?
The lamb is Jesus, the Tiger is the most perfect of His creation, Lucifer, the king of the beasts
Who else is watching because u have an exam very sonn

But did God make the tiger king?
mmm bull its about the MOON
Science evolves as years pass..And ,yes,tiger is the wildest of all animals on Earth,the most capable hunter and the most efficient killer.But a!so,tiger has the largest brain af all felines and the most complex one,and a study came up with the impressive conclusion that tigers reach almost 70% of depth and complexity of the human feelings..A giand Siberian tiger named Neron,(385 kg at its prime)was living with a Canadian couple.The husband was closer to the tiger,they were spending many hours a day at the forest.One day,the man died.When the tiger realized that his best friend will never come back,he refused to eat since then.Neron died from starvation a few weeks later...he died on his beloved rug....And another story:At a village of Siberia(unfortunately,I don't remember the village name),a wounded tiger came to a man's house seeking for help.The man found the courage to set the tiger free from the trap.The tiger, although in great pain,showed no signs of agressiveness to her saviour.When she was set free,she disappeared at the snowy forest.A few weeks later,the man woke up in the morning and went to open the front door of his wooden house.But the door seemed to be stucked.He came out of a window...when he raised his head,he felt like he was thunderstrucked:the tiger he helped,was 70 meters away staring at him...Full of mixed feelings,the man decided to see what was blocking his front door....It was a dead dear!!!The tiger killed the deer and brought it to the man that saved her as a gift,to thank him!!!..When the tiger made sure that the man was aware of her gift,she went back to the forest.Conclusions1):A human being is capable of the best,and also the worst.2)Animals aren't good or bad.Their instinct is higher than humans, they are not greed.3)You love a human being,yet he may betray you.You show love to an animal,it will show more love to you....General conclusion:love is so strong,it can make the wildest animal your best friend,even a member of your family

When the stars threw down their spears
And water'd heaven with their tears:
An illusion to the fallen angels?
Did he smile his work to see?
Did he who made the Lamb make thee?
God made Jesus the Lamb to counter Lucifer. And God also made Lucifer.
I can't here her voice speak!

Geleya creations You're right! I should call my channel SixteenMinuteScholar -- or sixty! I'll try harder next time.

Md.Talha Choudhury Yeah, sorry. I got tired of dying it. This is my natural hair. So much easier!
I find this comment very distasteful. What does one's hair colour have to do with you. People should not have to apologize for the colour of their hair. Nonsense! You look unique and beautiful Ms. Rebecca. Don't be sorry
For goodness sake learn to enunciate, and desist from mumbling ! and using phrases like 'kinda'
I thnk you made it too long. That´s the problem of most of the teachers. Uselessly complicated and then the students are even more confused.
