- A discussion of the context of T.S. Eliot's The Waste Land from the online course Classics of American Literature: T.S. Eliot, taught by Duke University English Professor Victor Strandberg.
This is a brilliant lecture series, which has helped tremendously with my university studies of The Waste Land.
Spetacular lecture.
Brilliant video👏🏻👏🏻
Wouldn't Inanna be older than Thammuz?
Please, where can I find the file that is mentioned as included in the lectures?
daniela vecchia you mean the poem?
@@SomeKindOfThing At roughly 22:18, Professor Strandberg refers to a file that is included with the course; however, I haven't been able to source it either. The Duke University website does not have any reference to it and merely refers one to this UA-cam lecture series.
@@TheRealGranted I can't find it as well. Does anyone know?

The final video has the documents
Judging by the look, is this the point where the prof becomes a cult leader?
Speed to 1.25 for better listening--Victor's a bit slow as a speaker.
I'll stick to the deliberate, gravely voice, choosing his words with great care. 👍🏻

@@TheWhitehiker When you rush to knowledge, you can easily miss the richness of the journey, or even miss the point entirely.
It's like reading great literature. Some books you just cannot scan down the page. Some are written to be read slowly and deliberately, perhaps even pausing for a moment at the end of a sentence. (I suggest you pause before responding.)
Although, if you don't already know all that, what the hell are you studying Eliot for?
