It’s funny as I was searching to see if any of my past family ever worked in the workhouse and came across this video as I’m a Dryden ❤️ and very proud to be

[@londongael]

Wow! So much to think about here - I'll have to come back when my thoughts are ordered. Meanwhile, I notice the prisoner in your cupboard seems to be weakening - perhaps it's time for the daily bread and water ration? Fantastic video, as ever.

[@DrOctaviaCox]

I'm glad you found the video thought-provoking, londongael.

[@DrOctaviaCox]

Ha! - what can I say?! The phantom prisoner is a little Oliver Twist, perhaps, “Please... I want some more”!

[@richardburt9812]

Nice of you to do this and share it.

[@HRJohn1944]

Once again, thank you. Why wasn't this a favourite poem of Marianne Dashwood's? Or of Donna Julia in Byron's "Don Juan?

[@londongael]

Bit too cynical for Marianne, maybe? 🙂

[@HRJohn1944]

@@londongael That would depend on Marianne knowing the context - but you're probably right, she is likely to know the whole play.

Do you have any observations about John Dryden’s poem ‘Farewell Ungrateful Traytor’?

[@Jkloooo]

amazingly described ❤

[@dorothywillis1]

I have never read this poem! Frankly, I never cared for Dryden's work and only read enough to get through the test! Perhaps your analysis will make me enjoy his work! Be right back after I read the poem!

[@Jint55metalhead]

Madam could you please provide me an in-depth analysis of Mac Flecknoe? I shall be obliged to you evermore. Thanks

Last part of my research the poem explanation farewell ungrateful traitor theme of the poem poet engages with theme of heartbreak betrayal relationships between men and women are going to end in betrayal on man part woman is going to end up suffering alone not worth structure and form of poem three stanza octave divided into two parts first four lines focus on what man did next four on how it affects woman lines follow rhythm the poem written in lambic trimester means each lines mostly contains three set of two beats literary devices anaphora seen through use of same words alliteration occurs when poet uses same constant caesura seen when poet inserts pause in middle of lines thank you for your great efforts you are not Literature university students in England only for all people around world stay safe blessed good luck to you your family friends

Patient will read who poem completely

[@catrinlewis939]

Thank you for this. I wasn't familiar with it before. Have you ever analysed Tobias Hume's "Fain Would I Change That Note"? I was introduced to it via Dorothy L. Sayers' _Gaudy Night_.

[@christinaMattsson]

I have never herd of him but this was such a nice video. Thank you! :)

[@markteltscher9746]

What can we learn from Austen's few quoted lines of poetry in her six completed novels?

[@londongael]

I notice the three consecutive feminine ending lines in each stanza all end on the exact same syllable (-ing, it, -ure) requiring another word or syllable to make the rhyme. I'm sure there is a Greek-derived technical term for this! Three in a row does rather make you look forward to the final line to resolve the tension, like getting back to the home key.

[@davidperfette1425]

Hi, could you provide a reading list of your favorites, poems and novels? I like how your lectures introduce me to lots of awesome stuff. Or, add to my enjoyment of lit I am already familiar with! Just a little bit jaded, huh? Seems quite the fatalistic lament. "Sex too short a pleasure and love too long a pain." Love does not have to be thus. Thanks for doing these!

[@samhoratio]

Like with so many of your videos, I learned so much from this one, Professor Cox. Thank you! You particularly helped me think about the ambivalences throughout this beautifully-arranged -- and, to me, funny -- poem.

[@liamodalaigh3201]

I enjoy your lectures. Fascinating
