Daddy | Sylvia Plath - Line by Line Explanation

[@monalisadutta43]

I can't even begin to put in words how excellent this was! I had to take 5 mins break just to unwind from all the emotions. Such an engrossing poem. I forgot the count of time. Thank you Maam for such an amazing explanation and also for encouraging to put our own inputs into our writings. To be honest i have to watch it again as I missed some of the slides while listening and looking at you😅. Wish there were more similarities in UG and PG syllabus.

[@NibblePop]

If there were more similarities then you would all get lazy😂

Omygod. This was a mindblowing experience indeed. No one could've imagined thinking the way you did. You deserve standing ovations👏

[@anshikasrivastava8018]

Huge respect for you ma'am ..the way you explained this poes is just brilliant...when I started reading this poem I was very confused what Sylvia plath wants to convey..she is contradictory her own words in this poem.. and i thought that she just wrote this in her anger but after watching this video I must say I have developed a huge respect for her...the world needs more like her and you are just amazing..words can't describe how I'm feeling right now... reality should be come infront of all.. looking forward for more such explanation...thank you so much 💗

[@debjanibanerjee895]

Ma'am all the points you mentioned about the portrayal of a very masculine tyrant in this poem, the figure of famous poet Ted Hughes as an oppressive husband and Sylvia's mental trauma and frustration she expresses as a poetic persona--it shook my inner conscience and emotions...thanks a lot ma'am for teaching us this well❤

Amazing lecture mam...i feel like am sitting in a university classroom. Thank you for bringing such amazing video & making us to think in another way. Take my love and respect 🙏

[@rishikamarethia9220]

Dear mam , Thanks for such a critically viewed analysis of this poem , the in between lines observation which you stressed upon is really something to be focused at , I completely agree with what you told , Also since she lost her father at the age of 8, how can she even has so many experiences or judgements for him , there's a grief of loss of fatherhood , she's recreating the image of daddy with her husband now, ...thank you so much for this observation , your lectures are always an enrichment for us the students.. 🌼🌼🥰❤️

[@gongshuohu1240]

Absolutely engrossing and riveting lecture. It educates and elucidates the poem so meticulosly with support of facts and valid interpretations. Thrilling to listen to discover what's between the lines. Devastatingly brilliant and shocking towards the end, It takes a brilliant mind to uncover the tortured brilliance of Sylvia Plath. And this is the first time I came across her poem. Many grateful thanks. Robert from SG.

[@NibblePop]

Thank you for your lovely comment and appreciation. Just one small qs, what does SG stand for?

[@sabiyakhatun9028]

Wow! Amazing lecture Mam👌👌really need these kind of classes👍👍

[@naveedakhtar527]

Marvelous interpretation

[@sandipon4177]

Thanks for the amazing explanation Ma'am.One more point I would like to add in the favour of the argument that "Daddy" is most probably her husband, She says "....The vampire who said it was you And drank my blood for a year, SEVEN years,if you want to know..." Their marriage lasted exactly for SEVEN years as they got married in 1956 and divorced in 1963.In these SEVEN years he tortured her or as she says, "drank my blood".Please correct me if I'm wrong.I'm just a student of English literature.

[@NibblePop]

You have a very valid point there

[@aarushiyadav5563]

Ma'am you have explained it so well. I have no words to explain my admiration for you.. Ma'am, please make an another video on the poem written by the same poet known as 'Lady Lazarus'. A humble request ma'am.

My God, I am still in a trance, your words have cast their magic spell on me. Your explanation too.....None of the Dictionaries have the word to describe it. I say the bestest if there's a superlative degree Just a thought--Could it be that her mother had an affair with a guy,( the reason for her hating her mother so much), who was like a father figure who bossed about when she was young to the extent of her hating him

[@vinitas20]

Great work ma'am

[@K_F_fox]

The first time I read the poem, I assumed "barely daring to breath or Achoo" was a metaphor. But my wife... her mother threatened to beat her as a child if she didn't stop burping (which was due to a hernia and food intolerances), and her grandmother threatened to beat her mother for coughing (which was due to asthma). Many spiritual practices involve the control of breathing, as it is both an involuntary and voluntary action. Why wouldn't a controlling, abusive parent want to exercise that level of control?

I've found this video on other channels . But why they I don't know only go through the lines and most importantly that type of video can't extract out the deeper sense of the poem. What is this video showed me . Thanks Mam . It was the best video for Honors students , though it take time but doesn't matter .

[@NibblePop]

Sylvia Plath spent a lifetime on poetry. So it is only justified that we spend an hour or two😊 Literature demands patience, and time. Only then can we enjoy it and not feel panicked by the enormity of syllabus. Good luck dear and thanks so much

[@lively_saumya]

Ma'am, I am little bit confused...why did she heavily use German words if she is not addressing her father? Because it is certain that he might be either a German or Polish, not very explicit but still... And I would like to thank you for presenting a different viewpoint that to with such proofs for which you must have done some rigorous research. We couldn't think that she could have used the word "Daddy" for Ted Hughes. I feel like we have only been studied Plath very superficially till now. But thank you for sharing this. Will surely try to spread this perspective.
