My perspective towards literature, completely changed.. what a different way of understanding the more deep meanings and beyond the literal meaning..❤ Thank you so much 💝
Thank you so much ma'am for your this great lecture 😊🙏. At first it was really difficult for me to understand this poem but after finishing your lecture I understood the poem's actual essence.
Brilliant! As usual, the best so far on UA-cam. Ma'am, would it be possible for you to cover a few texts of MA too? Texts like "the unbearable lightness of being", "persuasion"?
Brilliant analysis and explanation of The Hollow Men. I would love to see you do a break down of The Wasteland. I really appreciate the work you do, and I'm sure thousands of others feel the same. God Bless You.
Hello mam. I am one of your UA-cam students. I have learnt so many things from you , I am grateful to you forever for that. Still I am learning every day...I truly followed you so that I have qualified net in June 2023. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us, for being there on UA-cam. 🙏🙏. And one request mam please make a vedio on how to write a CV for literature students...it will be very much helpfull 🙏🙏

I usually don't subscribe to channels but I can't stop myself from subscribing Nibble Pop❤❤ Sometimes when I don't understand litrature I thought I chose wrong course but now by following you I am in love with litrature. Thank you❤
Excellent, madam. Yours is a channel of such a relief when it comes to understanding Eliot, and of course many others. So thanks a lot for your efforts.
I was going though my recent college lectures.... I think you cleared my confusion and build vission on Eliot more prominently...❤ Thanks a lot mam , make more videos
found a quote from Heart of Darkness that is about Kurtz, but so very much reminded me of how I feel about T. S. Eliot. I made the strange discovery that I had never imagined him as doing, you know, but as discoursing. I didn’t say to myself, ‘Now I will never see him,’ or ‘Now I will never shake him by the hand,’ but, ‘Now I will never hear him.’ The man presented himself as a voice. [...] That was not the point. The point was in his being a gifted creature, and that of all his gifts the one that stood out preeminently, that carried with it a sense of real presence, was his ability to talk, his words-the gift of expression, the bewildering, the illuminating, the most exalted and the most contemptible, the pulsating stream of light, or the deceitful flow from the heart of an impenetrable darkness.
@@NibblePop My wife zeroed in on the lack of eyes, comparing the poem with the cult classic film "Event Horizon." But between studying singing and studying maximizing oral health, I realized the jaw is both an organ of communication and consumption. "This broken jaw of our lost kingdoms" being a powerful objective correlative to an empire about to contract exponentially, but still with a powerful literary history.
I have an idea about the crossed staves. It involves both a cross-reference to The Waste Land (the Fisher King has three staves), and the correspondence between the Hebrew alphabet and the Tarot cards made by the Rider-Waite tarot deck. (There's an article from 1986 about how Eliot actually did know the Tarot and that the cards all reference actual cards in the deck... e.g. the Drowned Sailor is a *background* figure in the Death card). In Cyrillic, Zhe resembles three crossed staves: Ж, and the "meaning" of that letter, per Wikipedia, is the imperative verb "live," which is what the Hollow Men and the Londoners in the Waste Land really, really don't want to do at all.
Being American, it just dawned on me yesterday that the Guy Fawkes reference isn't random. There's a geographical feature called a Hollow, or Holler. The only difference is dialect, and I think Missouri might be in one of the overlap areas. The "remember, remember" poem is made famous by the movie V for Vendetta, but the movie only has the first part. The rhyme concludes with a couplet: Holloa, boys! holloa, boys! make the bells ring! / Holloa, boys! holloa boys! God save the King! Usually modernized to "Holler, boys," but Milton's original has that linguistic same ambiguity. I'll have to deep-dive into Heart of Darkness to see if there's anything most people miss about that reference, too.
Mam your way of teaching style is outstanding❤...I wander how can a teacher like you present any topic so attaratively .....I want to teacher like you mam...please tell me mam how can I achieve that ???😊.....give me blessings mam
What really strikes me about the Hollow Men is that it's the opposite of the Pavamana Mantra. They Hollow Men want to flee the real into the unreal, flee the light into the darkness, flee immortality into Death's Other Kingdom. It's embracing Māyā on every level.
The objective corelative of "Shape without form, shade without colour," struck me as being Platonic, but it took me a bit to put my finger on it. Plato's "Meno" dialog is about virtue, and Meno gives Socrates examples of virtues, but doesn't really explain what "virtue" is, and to communicate this failure, Socrates starts talking about the difference between shapes and "form" and the difference between colors and the higher concept of "color" itself.
I keep thinking I'm missing something profound about "sunlight on a broken column." Some of the themes and images used in the Hollow Men do appear to be in, and maybe even from, the Emily Dickenson poem that starts "there's a certain Slant of light."
Ma'am kindly complete the SCHOOL SERVICE COMMISSION SYLLABUS . You have already made videos on many topics, only some are left. Thank you for your classes.
Those who do not have the shadow between the potency and the existence are absolutely lost, violent souls. Case in point: "from this moment / The very firstlings of my heart shall be / The firstlings of my hand." Macbeth, Act IV, Scene 1.
The line about Deliberate Disguises reminded me a bit of how the Missouri born-and-bred T. S. Eliot annoyed the hell out of C. S. Lewis by being so over-the-top British. Salman Rushdie as always sums it up best as he applies that experience to his own characters: "A man who sets out to make himself up is taking on the Creator's role, according to one way of seeing things; he's unnatural, a blasphemer, an abomination of abominations. From another angle, you could see pathos in him, heroism in his struggle, in his willingness to risk: not all mutants survive. Or, consider him socio-politically: most migrants learn, and can become disguises. Our own false descriptions to counter the falsehoods invented about us, concealing for reasons of security our secret selves."
I did some thinking about the objective correlative of "supplication of a dead man's hand". As much as I'd like to point to something obscure, I think it's the most obvious allusion that goes beyond a surface meaning. In five card stud poker, a pair of aces and a pair of eights is a very strong hand. It doesn't guarantee absolute victory, but it's hard to beat. "Wild Bill" Hickok probably would have one the poker game he was in had he not been shot dead. So, Aces and Eights are the "dead man's hand." I'd love to point to a mudra, (the bhumisparsha mudra seeming to be the best candidate), or the invisibility granted by the Hand of Glory, but the American Wild West "Dead Man's Hand" is "power without force," because a dead player cannot collect his winnings. Alas!
This is why I wait so eagerly for your commentary. You never fail to enlighten in some way or the other. Never thought a hand would mean a hand of card! A decade of Bridge and it took you to point that out to me! Thank you 😊
Thank you so much madam..... For this brilliant explanation❤Madam please explain what the poet want to express with those two expression "death's dream kingdom" and "Twilight kingdom".
Sorry this took me a while, but I found the core connection between Heart of Darkness and the Hollow Men ["]This simply because I had a notion it somehow would be of help to that Kurtz whom at the time I did not see-you understand. He was just a word for me. I did not see the man in the name any more than you do. Do you see him? Do you see the story? Do you see anything? It seems to me I am trying to tell you a dream-making a vain attempt, because no relation of a dream can convey the dream-sensation, that commingling of absurdity, surprise, and bewilderment in a tremor of struggling revolt, that notion of being captured by the incredible which is of the very essence of dreams...."
