You are a very calming influence.

If you have not yet, you can read Pound's take on Joyce. It is really illuminating. Keep up the good work!

I can’t help but think that last part of McKenna about memories and experiences sounds very Proustian… 🤔 when you finished Mann…emotional… the music, the poetry,the fiction, the essays and articles…all of this great art and what I find so compelling among so many compelling elements in your vlogs is the art that is your life. You are creating something beautiful and inspiring with your choices and how you make your days. Bravo, and thank you for sharing the art of your living!

I hope you will overcome all the emotional challenges you face right now. Sending you a hug. Those muffins look delicious, by the way.

[@strange.lucidity]

Thank you so much 🙏

If you had black hair, you would look like a young Emily Dickinson.

I love your channel , iam an aspiring author from Nigeria and love literature especially historical literature Thanks for this amazing content

[@bilge-nur]

how do you motivate yourself during difficult times? What has happened in Gaza since October 7 has driven us all to burnout. With this desperation, we cannot focus on our lives.

[@mullerss1]

U have been a such inspiration to me for the last month.

How are you finding Der Zauberberg?

[@gavinaustin4474]

Maria, you might like this: kzbin.info/www/bejne/kIewl3Rso9hnapY (version with piano) kzbin.info/www/bejne/i2rPgGqap81lbrM (version with orchestra) This song cycle (particularly the longer version with piano) is Copland’s greatest achievement, in my opinion. And yes, Copland changed a crucial verb in the first line of the poem.

Lovely vlog! You do a beautiful job of sharing with us your joy of reading and books. P.S. love the music you play so tenderly included in the video!

[@strange.lucidity]

Thank you so much 🙏

[@ninaswan]

You remind me of a song - Maria (David Sylvian) You're probably too young to even know about him, lol.... lovely Vlog x

[@radiantchristina]

Oh how I enjoyed this vlog! You have a real talent for creating thoughtful and beautiful content.

[@strange.lucidity]

Thank you for saying that 🙏

[@uberandy666]

Based on this vlog alone, I have to say: you live a rather idyllic, and cosy life 😊

[@AntonyNorthcutt]

I love your channel! Which English translation of MM did you get?

[@strange.lucidity]

Another great video, I'm loving the day-in-the-life vlogs. Keep up the great work :D

What is the name of that big River? He leads me beside still waters. Ps23:3.

[@chrissmithdoe2100]

it's THE river - the Danube

[@motoole3200]

Thanks.

[@tavern.keeper]

Blueberry muffins! You're living the dream.

[@fredkrissman6527]

Lovely! I particularly enjoy when you rest your head against a book you're talking about.

[@filipsmit5497]

Thanks for another mesmerizing vlog! Loved the poetry and the emotionality in it. Required taking it in, step by step, with a precarious gait, till the last inch

[@Lisa-qt4hh]

Such a lovely vlog, Maria! It sounds like a good decision to not do the French class this semester. I've taken on too many classes once during a semester and it negatively impacted my experience of all the courses I was taking because I lacked time to focus on the material properly (which is already a challenge if you take a normal amount of courses). I love how you went to the river to do some of your tasks :) It's calming to see nature, even on a video. Oh, and thank you for putting the Mckenna talk in your video. I had not heard of him and will listen to the talk because it sounded awesome!

[@heatherfranco5810]

Thanks for another great video! ❤

You are a very calm person on the internet
