you should really invest in some software in which you can use to help us track what you are describing like a pointer mouse or like a red dot so we know what sections you refer to or even branch the analysis with an arrow

Wonderful! Thank you so much for educating me on some Latin. It will be appropriate to use in my explanation of Love Song of J Alfred Prufrock! Momento Mori fits Eliot's piece well and will use this in my comments elsewhere. Again Thank you

[@MissHannaLovesGrammar]

Really glad it could be of help!

[@paulavillacis]

youre amazing, thank you !!

[@MissHannaLovesGrammar]

Thanks so much - really glad this video helps!

[@Terry2377]

Thank you. Beautifully and clearly explained. (ps. I would say not "superficial interest in her looks," but very strong admiration for them. Do we know Marvell's age when he wrote this beautiful poem?)

[@georgepatrick530]

Need to sort out the loud glitch noises they always give me jumps! Other than that, very helpful

[@afzalmahmud1974]

Love it ❤

[@shieladagcuta9769]

Ms. Hanna could this poem can be analyze through the use of historcal and biographcal approach? the book that I'm reading suggesting me to use that approach but then I have a dfficulty to relate the poem to the authors background.

[@MissHannaLovesGrammar]

It could be used best through a Historical analysis...Marvell is being playful with his poetic voice and thus this poem does not really mirror his own personal life experiences. Good luck with your analysis and thanks for checking out my channel!

Hello Miss, Firstly, the gothic imagery, e.g.'the Grave's a fine and private place' etc.... does it reflect the 'memento mori' concept you were talking about? If yes, what does gothic imagery show in a Renaissance poem? Second, do you know any fin de siecle writer examples and novels apart from Oscar Wilde's Dorian Gray? Thanks! Very helpful video on A02 analysis. I need to talk about typicality and comparison more in essays.

[@MissHannaLovesGrammar]

In relation to your first question our speaker uses gothic imagery to shape and amplify the fears of the intended listener ( or potential lover). Perhaps this imagery also heightens the speaker's fascination with the strange and perverse. Additionally, Robert Louis Stevenson could be seen as a fin de siècle writer with Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde. Hope it goes well!

[@annalisa8362]

Could this also be useful in a feminist approach?

[@MissHannaLovesGrammar]

Fascinating!

[@annalisa8362]

@@MissHannaLovesGrammar It that a yes or? Sorry I'm just curious

[@MissHannaLovesGrammar]

@@annalisa8362 A feminist reading would be critiquing the absence of the female voice and the use of such intense sexualised and objectifying language. Definitely a strong reading to critique with!

[@annalisa8362]

@@MissHannaLovesGrammar Thank you so much! I have an assignment regarding it and I was wondering how to approach it. I have a few ideas but idek if I'm on the right track

[@MissHannaLovesGrammar]

@@annalisa8362 sounds good to me!

[@ralisgroffen]

I disagree with the description of Memento mori

[@iangrimshaw1]

Good points, well made. I'd stick with Marvell's purpose of getting a potential lover into bed. Worked for me when I had an affair in 1990. 😘

I was quite interested in your introduction, but I’m afraid I felt moved to give up. Your reading reminds me of a piano masterclass I attended as a student. A young man was playing the Appassionata Sonata and the master pianist stopped him and asked “have you ever been in love?”, the young man said ‘no’ candidly. The older man said in that case wait and play something else. You have zero understanding of the psyche of a mature man. If I was you I would leave analysing poems like this till you have. Your silly take on his passion is childish and lacking in maturity. Wait till you actually know something about men.

[@MissHannaLovesGrammar]

I would love to see your interpretation of this poem - please share it so we can all learn.
