Mam, I am from Bangladesh. I am studying at a university. Department of English literature. It's so helpful class for me.thank you mam.

[@maddie_01]

Should I call you the muse of my life.... Dear ma'am I'm a student from TMBU(Bhagalpur, Bihar) I chose English as I was fond of this subject. But later when I joined college and started attending my classes I was tremendously disappointed by the behaviour of professors and teachers.They have zero intentions to teach us whole heartedly, they just do it for name sake.I found no help even from the nearby tuition centres.Once while searching for my textual content I found your channel and am glad to be a part of your video sessions. It's really difficult to me to express you thankfulness as words go less. Thank you so much.

[@NibblePop]

I am so touched by your words. This is exactly why we make videos, to make life a little easier for you all.

[@anuranchakraborty]

Ma'am I must say this was really really very very helpful video for us ...The way you explained each and every matter in this video was so clear, detailed and crisp that even the video was a bit lengthy, I've almost understood the prosody part.. I've gone through many KZbin videos but this was the best ❤️ I've to say. Huge respect for you ma'am keep up your work 🙏..

[@julesverne7395]

Thank you so much for this video, Ma'am. I'm currently studying for my exams and your explanations helped immensely as I wasn't taught many things you mentioned. The extra stresses in a line especially. Now the meter makes sense again! I do have an awfully specific question, if you'll allow, because you mentioned in your other video about sonnets that English sonnets introduce a volta after the second quatrain, as a nod to the Petrarchan style, and give the conclusion to it in the final couplet. (Perhaps I should post the question there..? Oh, well.) I am practicing by analyzing Elizabeth Browning's Sonnet 14 from her collection of "Sonnets from the Portuguese." Thanks to your explanations, I have identified that it is a Petrarchan sonnet in predominantly iambic pentameter, as a love poem should be. The volta in the first line of the sestet she emphasizes by reversing the iamb into a trochee-dactyl mix. Very sneaky, since the line talks about reversal, too. At this point I must thank you again for pointing out that trochee and dactyl belong to the same family because my initial trochee, trochee, spondee approach made no sense, haha. Now to my question. The author keeps to the Petrarchan style up until the last line. There she breaks the rhyme scheme. Thematically, I guess she wants to set apart true love from the shallow love she described before. So in a sense, the last line, which sticks out like a sore thumb with the broken rhyme pattern, reads like a conclusion to the volta. Is it a fair argument to say that this could be a nod back to the Shakespearean sonnet with its concluding couplet, which also stands apart from the rest of the poem and concludes, as you said, the volta? Or am I reading too much into it?

[@NibblePop]

Wao, I am so amazed by your sincere reading and decoding. You have perfectly seen the real meaning of the couplet in Barret Browning's work. In fact, Petrarchan was more about courtly love, an artificial game of show when compared to the real life emotions that Shakespeare presented. So yes, you are absolutely correct in understanding Browning's intention and execution. And thank you, you have actually enlightened me as I have never considered this so deeply. Please stay connected.
