As a black American, thank you for your explanation for post colonialism. I’d subconsciously viewed many books with a post colonial lense without even realizing it - I didn’t know it had a name. I’ve lived so much of my life in grief for a culture I’d never had. I’ve never been to Africa, but my ethnicity is “African American.” I grew up wishing that I’d wake up one day and my parents would speak to me in twi or Swahili, I wanted a country to truly call my one. I wanted a culture that had distinct traditional clothing, music, language - I wanted to be special through my culture like everyone else. I was “American” , but not “American” in the same way my white peers are. I love the post colonial lense because it taught me that I am not alone in my grief, so many diaspora kids feels as if they have no homeland. It was liberating. If you are a POC living in the west and feel alone, learn post colonial lense. Trust me, you are not alone.

I am a lil embarrassed to say this but I am waaay older and I already finished school and university years ago. I am from a Latin American country and I always felt like our education was so behind. And this proves it. I feel like I have never fully understood a book on my 34 years of life and couldn't really care either when they forced me to read our mandatory books. Our classics are different our literature in general is different but still we had tests and never really got deep on why or what to put attention to, to analyze said books. You just got bad grades and that was it. And it was just tests, never had to analyze and write about it with my own point if view and opinions. We were supposed to get the same subjective vision of the teachers and it was so hard for me... I didn't suck but I always felt like that wasn't really reading. I am so glad to learn now, and I am so idk how to explain it, but proud of you because you have mastered the explanations and made it easy for me to get and grasp the concepts with more ease. Thank you.

i'm from australia and in high school i was good at analysing the books and movies assigned and I would always have my own opinions on how examples in the text either fit in with a theme or didn't but it seemed like to get good grades we had to use the examples that the teachers gave us and only use the quotes that they used. it was like i coud develop my critical analysis skills to a point but getting any more creative than that would be "outside the scope of the class" and my grades would flop.

i would like to say that i genuinely enjoy watching your "analysis 101" videos since your style of explaining and elaborating these concepts are so simple yet eloquent. it takes me back to the days when i was a first year student who just learned about critical lenses and textual analysis!! :') something that i really appreciate in your analysis-101-videos is how you incorporate examples. furthermore, i LOVE how you don't only present your evidence but also explain them in an understandable manner. but!!! most importantly, i appreciate the fact that you present questions one can pose while reading a literary text. that is, in my opinion, super helpful and so effective because the theory can be complicated and complex and these questions somewhat facilitate the analysis process. thank you a lot moon for sharing your knowledge to all of us!

I always wanted to like reading classics, I always wanted to read a book with a notebook, some highlighters and coffee beside me, and take notes. I sadly went to a school where I didn't take a proper science class until I was 14 or 15 years old. I didn't learn note-taking, I didn't learn much about essay writing, and I certainly had no grasp of critical thinking despite my mixed age group class reading Beowulf at 9 or 10 years old. The importance of topics wasn't instilled until later in my life, and though I always wanted a traditional education, once I found myself in high school, certain things like English class (while I thought I would love them) were the most difficult courses for me. Not only that but it was difficult for me as a student to get attention, because most of the things I needed help with were things other kids learned long before me and they were too frustrated to go back to basics. I truly appreciate you taking the time to go over these concepts as they are so important, and I'm grateful to have it explained so thoroughly, passionately, and with such care to the receiver. Thank you Moon!

(Warning: This comment is REALLY long) Second literary analysis 101 video :0 I seriously love this series. I've always wanted to dig deeper and had a bunch of thoughts about the stories I read, just never knew how to organise said thoughts even in my head, forget writing it out on paper. This helps a lot :D I have a specific interest in breaking down fanfiction. One, because ao3 is a godsend and the tags let you know exactly what you're reading and what tropes are there. Just makes it that much easier to comprehend the fic when you do actually read it. Two, because most of the fanfiction that I specifically like to read are the ones that deal with issues canon neglected or dealt with badly and it's just so interesting to see all these authors get so fed up with canon and decide to approach the same neglected issues in so many different ways. I've been in the bnha fandom for a few years now (there's so much fanfic for it.. it's amazing) and some fic tropes I really like are the ones that deal with the quirkless community, Izuku's past bullying and his mental state. I have read SO MANY fics dealing with these topics and each of them are so different, and I'd love to analyse them. I've also recently been getting into fanfiction for mlb. It's a kids show, but the older audience has a LOT of beef with the creator and the way the story built up so many arcs, only to have zero consequences in the end. It gets tiring. So, people wrote rewrites, made headcanons about the personalities that characters in mlb would have if the creator didn't make them so flat, etc. It's really fun to read them, and I really want to analyse some of my favourite ones for both fandoms, specifically from a psychoanalytical lens. Bnha because of Izuku's mental state (among other characters) and mlb for the stress on Marinette (guardian at 14? Really? Also want to explore some of her stalker and borderline abusive behaviours towards Adrien/Chat) and Adrien (poor guy was neglected by his father. And never found out about Gabriel being hawkmoth, which.. shouldn't have happened. Also the whole chat noir left out arc). Also, is there a lens based on the way society and it's rules change in fiction? Like, in bnha there's hero society (which is really messed up) and in mlb, the people of Paris have gotten so used to Hawkmoth's attacks and gotten complacent in doing nothing because ladybug and chat noir will save them anyway. I'd really love to analyse those shifts in society's behaviours due to fictional aspects, and I wanna know if there's an already established lens for it cause it could make my life much easier and give me some pointers.

@bluemoon.f4v 9 ай бұрын
analysing fic is such a different experience, cause not only will the fic be based on whatever existing art, such as bnha, but the author will often draw from other existing art and make a sort of compilation! in terms of a lens... maybe a historical or marxist lens would be a good thing to try? so you could talk about the context that the fictional society comes from?

This is what’s lacking in the education system of my country, the lack of critical thinking because we were not really taught properly- or maybe the teachers just didn’t believe in our abilities- on how to do our readings. Most of the students here have a difficulty in understanding texts or passages because all we did was memorize. We didn’t really dive deep into the interpretations and meanings of what we were reading. We did not deconstruct passages to better understand their meaning and be given more freedom to share our ideas from our own point of view. Thanks for this moon. I ll keep learning.

I hope your top surgery has been going well!! (I saw some updates on TikTok and I’m glad it went fine!!) I hope you start getting more attention on youtube cause you explain really well and are very talented! Ngl 11:38 this reminded me of the fact I need to go back to no longer human, in my language (Italian) it has quite a lot of mistakes and mistranslations so I’ll definitely go back to it!

I would recommend this for professors teaching first year oriented literature courses (in American universities because that's what I know), as it would be a good primer to guarantee that students are on more equal footing in regards to analysis.

6:41 in the event someone takes this and over-generalizes, English isn’t THE colonizer’s language-though it often is. A Haitian text written in French would be just as clearly a case of being written in the colonizer’s language. Frankly, anything written in any language non-native to the locality will be written in some colonizer’s language.

I know this would sound like stupid questions... What's annotation? What's the difference between annotating and the "highlighting the part you want to talk about the most" like you said? If it's different, what made both of them different? Is doing annotation really any different than doing an overall analysis? I've learned basic literature analysis in school, but the works themselves are in my language, and most of them are in... eco-criticism lens, I'd say? But recently, I've done several analysis on BSD, the LNs and manga (idk if analysis on manga counts as one?), in new criticism lens. How can I do the same on real literature works, such as... idk, Sherlock Holmes, for example? Sorry for the many questions and grammar mistakes, English isn't my first language!

as for your other question... I'm not sure if I don't fully understand what you've asked, but if you're looking to understand what lenses to use on classics such as sherlock holmes, I'd recommend a historical or close reading lens! of course, any lens can work on any text, but some make more sense (and pick up more information) than others

Hi Moon! I stumbled upon this series yesterday when KZbin recommended it. I thought you did a great job simplifying the basics of literary analysis/criticism! You're very good at being clear, concise, and organized-while still being entertaining. Overall, a really great resource for people looking to get better at engaging with media. I just wanted to comment because I noticed your explanation for post-structuralism missed some key points. The definition in the slide you give is correct, but when you later say that post-structuralism is calling it the "villain" of the lenses because it points out the "flaws" of a text is a bit of a misrepresentation. It's difficult to get into the specifics of deconstruction because it's such a complex theory, but I'll try to offer my simplified definition. Rather than pointing out flaws, the aim of deconstruction is to look at the overall structure of a text (e.g., its narrative elements and language) and pinpoint how they lead to some overarching logic (its assumptions, theme or message). This is what I think you were alluding to in your explanation. However, post-structuralism goes beyond looking at the elements that make the text "great" or coherent (i.e., it has a clear, single message or theme to impart). It's not concerned with determining whether a work is good or bad in the technical sense. Rather, to borrow the critic Terry Eagleton's words: "The tactic of deconstructive criticism ... is to show how texts come to embarrass their own ruling systems of logic." (Literary Theory: An Introduction). In other words, post-structuralist critiques look for the gaps where the text undermines itself. It may be something like a minor detail/character, but their presence suggests that a text's assumptions are not absolute and can, in fact, be challenged. Or they might reveal that the dominant idea/group is not as powerful as the text might want us to think-without the text realizing it. In this way, post-structuralist theory lends itself to other lenses like the Marxist, feminist, and post-colonial because they all are concerned with ideas/sectors that have been historically marginalized. Again, a super simplified definition, but I hope it helps those interested in the theory! Great work on the series, and I'm glad there's someone out there helping people get better at literary analysis :)

@Prozaly not necessarily, no! children's literature tends to have more obvious central themes, but they can still be beautifully subtle elsewhere

Literary Analysis 101-Advance, when?
@brendanebe3021
@brendanebe3021 Ай бұрын
hey! i was wondering how do i pick a lens to do an analysis of a book if i haven’t read it yet? would i do that after, if so how would i know to gather the write evidence? What type of annotation would i do while reading?
@bluemoon.f4v
@bluemoon.f4v Ай бұрын
for a first read-through, I always suggest to just take basic notes in a notebook or on your phone, for example, and only truly begin annotating & analysing on the second or third read! that way you'll already have a grasp of the text, you'll know what interests you, and you'll notice things you didn't on the first read :3

Hello Somehow I've missed your new video, though I'm glad I eventually came across on it. Thanks a lot for sharing your knowledge! I'm not sure whether you'll reply to my question, but I still have an urge to leave it here. Regarding Deconstructuralism, if we follow your example and say the work "..." relies on the cultural assumption a lot, or maybe too much, then is it fair to the work, to its author and their culture? I mean a lot of or perhaps all the writers create in their culture for their culture. Is it fair to critique that we're too out of reach of the said culture, cultural space, codes etc while an author didn't even had a notion that someone from another country, another nation would eventually read their work? I'm sorry for any mistakes I've made since English is not my first language. I hope my message doesn't sound rude, since it is not the intention I have, but rahther it's hard for me to express myself in words

The audio levels are really, really low. If you’re watching at home on a TV, it’s really a problem. If you turn up the volume to make the video audible, transitions to commercials will annoy every else in the house and maybe some of your neighbors.

The phrase "sometimes the curtains are just blue" causes me physical pain. Don't get me wrong, I get that public education is about as effective and useful as a wooden toaster, but come on what harm does it do you to let someone else apply meaning to this?
