Thank you for sharing your lectures. This is an interesting and helpful lecture, as always.

This was a great video, thank you! :)

Didn't realise the hierarchy thing. I genuinely read it as him choosing a lower social rank out of spite I cause pain to others therefore I must be real and have free will- syllogism. Not a cog in the system. Interesting, kirkegaard mentions something like being a thorn (linking to being genuine perhaps) Hates people weaker than himself with Lisa. Power elements. (Which means he hates himself). Subverting romanticism with realism (plausible psychology with ordinary people). Urban setting

Thank you very much, it was really helpful

This helps me to understand Anna Karenina more as well - feudal (Russian language) Vs capitalism (french language upper classes) Nationalism - peasant wisdom, elevated in eyes of the romanticist Liver issues/speaking to himself - internal issues of his own making (not forced on him by society like Rousseau).

Hare Krishna 🙏🏻🙏🏻

A rather halting talk with too many 'so's', not very erudite

Well done, sir! You’re a saint to be teaching Joyce in this current day.

Sweet. Thanks for uploading this.

Loving James Joyce. Thank you.

"Some really good stories..." Indeed.

Very grateful these videos exist.

O look, A RETARD PROFESSOR. huh, how unusual. HAHA

Right. Right. Right. Right.

Really enjoyed the earlier and this video! We are discussing Wide Sargasso Sea for my Theory classes and these two videos provided a lot of context and thought-frames which better helps me unravel what the text does.

Reading bible literally as a modern phenomenon (19th century in Britain). Didnt believe in devil as actual being previously. So fine to create a character. (I guess compared to American Christianity where the thought is the devil is real, literally in the world) The snake was just a snake. No devil character in the bible A symbol that can be reappropriated therefore - not negative wholly. Spirit of denial. Spirit that resist/that questions/that says no

Romanticism - individual (as opposed to universal). Sublime, world very big, you are small, but the smallness is also exciting Angels/universe - orderly, rational (but purpose concealed) The devils as part of celestial order (to err but to allow people to strive, to overcome) Faust as trapped in study

great lecture. Thank you. Connection with the Sophists and Athenian society particularly interesting.

❤❤❤❤

What exactly are "gasping negatives"?

Graham Greene? Somerset Maughan? Wodehouse?

Next time the screen notes should be readable ,they appear very faint

Thank you

thank you internet!! i love these lectures

Helen as Pan, preying on upper elites, as pan is chaos, upturning social order. (Victorian fear of devolution) Woman as independent (woman who assissanted Marat, police thought a man put her up to it, couldn't imagine she thought of it herself)

what's the meaning of" so much is at all so little"?

What book is he referring to?

Within 10 mins of watching I felt envious of the students in your class and of today who have access to perhaps some of the best teachers of literature online! You are incredible Prof.! Any suggestion on a translation?

1888 born and was 34 when she died

The Yankees can't beat the Dodgers, bro

Goated lecturer

larger, larger font would be better ;]

How great the west would be if women never had the right to vote

GSW students are so blessed to have you, Dr. Moir! Thank you for offering your wonderful lectures on this KZbin channel!

Fun class!

good lecture - thank you. I'm especially intrigued by the formal links with ancient Greek theatre; the triangular character relations are really interesting when looked at in that way.

Thank you for posting this! Im not a student just a fan of surrealist and weird fiction. Especially when its horror. So im glad such amazing info is just out here for free! ❤️

I really enjoyed your "Weird Fiction" uploads... though I'm far from Georgia and GSW.

厉害哦，感觉对于让西方人了解中国人复杂的价值观和行为方式在小说里的体现很有帮助

This is very helpful. Thank you! 😊

King in Yellow too?! This course sounds awesome

Casteism has nothing to do with Hinduism, shree Krishna made verna system just to devide people on the basis of their occupation they usually do, not to discriminate between them

The good lady’s name is pronounced Julian of Norrich, (and likewise, even though not featuring in this video it is also mispronounced a great deal on the other side of the pond for the same reason, Warwick is pronounced Worrick). The ‘w’ is not pronounced as a ‘w’ but as a second ‘r’. But other than that, good content and cute cats. 👍

These people all sound like cultural marxists. They always start tearing down language first, it confuses people, making them easier to control. Think “political correctness.”

You should wear a microphone.

I fell in love with the Holmes stories in 9th grade. We read “The Red-Headed League” & I thought Holmes was brilliant, & read all the Holmes stories. I remember reading the Memoirs and Adventures while we were camping one summer, in our camping trailer in the top bunk, with a small dim light on over my head. I still have that book, and when I close my eyes and riffle through it and smell those old pages I’m back at muggy, buggy Naylor’s Beach campground with my family & Holmes & Watson. I’m 64 years old now, I still collect Sherlock books & memorabilia. People mourned when Doyle killed Holmes off in the Strand. I mourned when Jeremy Brett died.

Sorry, but Jihad is not one of the islam 5 pillars .. they are: 1-shahada (or the words you say to announce your islam) 2- salat (pray) 3- soum (fasting) 4- zakat (money for the poor) 5- haj (pilgrimage to kaaba) .. please don't teach wrong information, not just about islam, but about any subject because people would believe what you say and that is big responsibility.

Sound very very poor.

Henry was a LOT nuts. And it’s still a durn shame he killed his wives, being obsessed with a male heir. Especially since we now know if he didn’t sire sons it was his biology.
