5:38 - 6:05 Even though Prufrock is well educated, wealthy, and smart, he believes that others are talking behind his back and could never understand the way he feels. So he hides his emotions never to be shown. Emotions are a lot more complicated than meets the eye. Psychological revolution with Sigmund Freud. *Note to self*
4:55 Prufrock uses lots of stream of consciousness, from a stray cat being made from the fog, to worrying about his balding hair, it shows he is worried and is not put together unlike someone portrayed in the victorian era. *Note to self*
Thanks for this lecture. Your lectures are always very clear and informative and makes me go deeper into my studies. I am very grateful for your efforts and endeavors to reach the students of literature.
This is just a theory: But did Prufrock have a reason to go to the party to do something he was afraid to do and end up not doing it because he became distracted by the woman. ; Explanation: He stopped saying "Do I dare" and also said that she made him digress.
@@michaelj.7212 stay with it! It makes more sense the more you think about it. It's hard because he adds in all these allusions and writes in a sort if stream of consciousness...he's basically describing his thought process.
I disagree with the interpretation of the mermaids. They "lure" men to envision fantasies-there is nothing positive about that [10:24]. The mermaids embody love's seductive call and its cruel inaccessibility to Prufrock, whose self-conscious male gaze reduces women to dangerous creatures or ethereal fantasies, revealing his inability to see them as human rather than projections of his desires and fears.
Gee whizz. What a performance! Almost blew me out of my seat. Thought I was watching a yogi bear and boo boo video. If ya close your eyes that's exactly what happens. "We have lingered in the Chambers of the sea, by seagulls wreathed with seaweed red and brown, til HUMAN VOICES wake us and we drown".......sure thing, Tom, my lad
I don't think that this style of presentation does justice to the poem. This is not what Eliot meant at all, this is not what he meant, at all! I also think that your analysis is not "in depth". How can you talk of symbols without making it plausible that and why Eliot used sysmbols at all and what they were supposed to symbolize? What's the difference between symbols and metaphors or even motifs? And does Prufrock wish he ha a magic lantern? does he not rather fear to be dissected (as expressed earlier in the poem, "pinned and wriggling on the wall")? And does he really address one specific woman? Arms and shawls and skirts and whatnot: it's Woman, with a capital W, not one woman in particular. And so on. Sorry.
I just had to continue because this instructor this high pitched manic literal translation of a great poem this guy this instructor has no clue of what the hell he is talking about or what's going on with TS Eliot through the character of the crew frock it's really a standing it's also embarrassing it's Which is part of proof rock problem living in a world where people don't get it they live meaningless empty lives
I love this poem and find it grossly misunderstood by everyone but whoever this guy is with his high pitched voice and he's mantic quick rendering of the poem he's so grating I had to turn him off sorry buddy I know your intentions are good like good lord man
POV: this is your English assignment

7:12 He wants to share his thoughts and emotions to someone but is afraid that the "one" will reject him for telling them to her. *Note to self*

An Outstanding lecture by an Outstanding Instructor.

Nice explanation. This is one of my favorites from Eliot.
POV. You identified with Prufrock a little too much.
I really just love this poem
Slow down and dont shout.... otherwise- brilliant!
Thanks a lot. It becomes helpful for me. I find difficulties when go through the poem. but now I get it.
Thank you for this helpful video, it helped me for me English assignment :)
These reviews are great but it always feels like you're yelling at the audience, maybe chill out on the coffee before filming these

Beautiful and lovable explanation
Pov: You have to write a character analysis essay in one night.
But why is he named J. Alfred Prufrock? Why not John Smith?
Great work. Thank you so much
Good communication and voice
I'm having a very difficult time dissecting this poem myself. It just seems so damn pretentious?
edit: This video helped BIG TIME
Same this poem makes almost no sense to me
@@michaelj.7212 meaningless is the new meaning...
@@10969Sasu except this poem is over a hundred years old...👀

That's modern poetry
I have my exam next day, Let’s hope for the best.
I perform this poem on my channel. It really is something else (The performance)
thanks, got a huge literary review due based on this
Really good explanation
I assumed the yellow fog was referring to mustard gas, is it just describing the fog outside??
DO i Dare 1:29 -- 2:30 - 2:40 should i presume :::: NOTE TO SELF

Thanks

nice observation!
Very fast speaking
is it a way to talk?
Yes, pls change the tone of your voice. This is T S Eliot not a 2 for 1 bargain announcement at the discount store.
Wish i could speak like that 🙄 😭
well for one thing theres not anything wrong what prufrock thinks.
Why are you shouting?
It is his way 😆😅 Just watch A Midsummer Nights Dream and your head will be spinning of how fast he explains 😁 But he is good I admit it 💕😍

Stop shouting. Eliot would be ashamed.
prufrock was the first incel
His energy really doesn't match the subject matter
Does this screaming man have any idea what poem he is referencing
