Hey dude. Just want to say this was great. I'm a teacher myself, teaching university in China so I've been searching for some videos that'll help me express literary criticism in a way that my second-language students would be able to understand and you've given me some great ways of doing just that with this video. Seriously, thank you and well done.
@Nancenotes8 жыл бұрын
+John Lawrence Halliburton Great! Glad you find them useful! I created them for my high school students to get a first taste of criticism, but I've gotten a lot of feedback from college students who enjoyed the simple look at the different methods. Also, kudos on the work in China! Very cool. I had an old friend who did that for a few years. I also teach a version of Journey to the West in my literature course and enjoy discussing China and its literature then. Thanks again, and good luck!

+Tim Nance (NanceNotes and Narwhals) Wow, thanks for the reply! I would say high school in native English speaking countries is probably about the equivalent level of most Chinese students, so it should work out in the coming semester. I actually did watch that video of yours too when I noticed it! Journey to the West is really as ingrained into Chinese culture as Shakespeare's work is in English-speaking countries. But yes, I do admire your videos a lot! I have been watching quite a few different people make similar videos and I do tend to find there's at least *something* in yours that I think provides a kind of simple method of understanding that the majority of others miss. Your work has been invaluable. Thank you so very much :).

I took literary theory and criticism and most of it did not have anything to do with literature (from perspective of fiction). It was more about understanding human construct. Being consciously aware to what we have been conditioned into. There was critique of human nature, human thinking, human reality. What we read was excerpts of philosophers that criticized politics, orientalism, subalternity, sexuality, etc. People like Karl Marx, Zizek, Nietzsche, etc. From this video, would you even like my explanation?

I wish literary theory, even at the most basic level, was taught in high school, or at least the very idea that there is not just one fixed reading of a text. (Or maybe this is the way it's taught in high schools and mine just didn't get with the program.) These are great videos!
@Nancenotes9 жыл бұрын
+Peter Carman Definitely! I dislike the idea that there's only one reading available. It doesn't simplify the study, but merely makes it monotonous. Who wants to reproduce everything a teacher says about a text when you can actually get creative and think? I prefer my students to stretch their brains and try out some ideas.

Hi Mr. Nance. Can you please explain foregrounding and backgrounding
@Nancenotes8 жыл бұрын
+atheer saud These terms have to do with the way language and structure add emphasis to certain points in a text. Foregrounding is technique of making the reader pay attention to a part of the text either because of parallel regularity (like a rhyming couplet at the end of a free verse passage) or because of irregularity (like a shift in meter from iamb to trochee in the line of a sonnet). Doing so forces us to notice this part of the text and draws out meaning. As the term implies, it draws meaning to the foreground. Backgrounding is the opposite concept; it means to lessen in significance. Aspects of the text or patterns we think we see at first may become backgrounded as other more significant details are foregrounded. In other words, both concepts have to do with the interaction between form and meaning. These terms are useful particularly if you are trying a New Critical or Formalist theory, which emphasize close reading and the interplay between form and content. Does this help?
