Calvinism is definitely not of God. If it were, God would have predicted that it would be used to found white supremacy with the risk of depriving a great teacher such as the professor we are enjoying through this video.

I like to think that there is no one in the classroom and he's talking to himself. And those who teach CAN do. They inspire thousands of minds. That's a great talent.

Here it is 2016 & I'm just stumbling on this. Thanks for posting. I love finding professional college-level lectures on-line here.Pay no attention to the naysayers. But it would be great if you could post a link to your syllabus & reading material. I'm not even sure what edition of MD you're using though I could guess Library of America perhaps?

@@rockyyan5938 If you mean Peer-level lectures on various topics there are various sources some Uni. put out so it would depend on the actual topic. A great example is Gresham College, Eng. They have a YT channel that goes back years and has dozens of high-level lectures on many topics. Another fav of mine is the former Chicago Oriental Studies Institute, now known as Institute for the Study of Ancient Cultures. If you mean lecture notes - I got no reply.

At approximately 43:00 I think he misinterprets Melville's metaphor "to cook up." It's not a domestic reference, it's a reference to "Breaking Bad"; actually it's a reference to the industry that occurred on whaling ships (described - by the way - in the novel "Moby Dick") as the whale blubber would be "cooked up," boiled in order to render the valuable oil.
@bolosweet4 жыл бұрын
I think you missed the point, he’s not denying the blubber cooking , he’s just saying how Melville distorted the domesticity that was popular in those days with his own “ungainly” version. One of the reasons why he was a great writer.

I loved Moby Dick... I thought he was a responsible captain with a responsible crew... in those days, the whaling fleet could be an extension of the navy if need be... if Ahab was given a mission sworn to secrecy, and if he requested an inexperienced crew... and the description of the whale doesn't seem very whale like. he went down with his mission, and trying to save his crew

One of the things that is just simply wrong is the "Because it is theirs...' line made in reference to landing a whale in port and which apparently automatically becomes the property of the King of England. But this is indeed a wilful corruption and deceit of the facts of the matter. If I may: 'A charter granted to Hilary, Bishop of Chichester in 1148 gave him the right to “any whale found on the land of the church of Chichester, except the tongue, which is the King's.”[3] The English king had asserted the right to the entire whale by 1315 when Edward II reserved “to himself the right of all whales cast by chance upon the shore.” [4] Whales came to be known as “Royal fish”, the disposal of which was an exclusive right of the monarch, or his local representative.[5] Indeed, to this day, the Crown Estate asserts that "theoretically The king can claim ownership" of beached whales and other "Royal fish".' Less of the anti-British prejudice and propaganda if you please!

There's a problem with the rendering of the names of the rhetorical tropes(or strategies) to which the speaker is referring at the beginning of the lecture: 0:00:59 (et seq.), the Greek word is spelt apophasis (not apophysis, not apophasia); the Latin word is spelt 'occultatio'; and the other term for personification is prosopopoeia.

What? Melville joined the US Navy, wasn't in a brig! Sailed on the USS United States: "In August, 1843, Melville enlisted in the US Navy and embarked on the final leg of his journey, working as a seaman on the Navy ship United States through the Pacific. In October 1844, Melville returned to his mother's house determined to write about his adventures." PBS, American Experience.
@michelmcbride9 ай бұрын
"Brig" in this context refers to a two-masted ship, not a naval jail. But he's still incorrect, because the USS United States was three-masted. It's just a minor mistake, not the one you think he made.
