    The class was quite helpful. However, it was quite unacceptable to skip over the last part just like that.
    The sanskrit words in the last portions is taken from the Brihadarunyaka Upanishad . The words are Datta, Damyatha and Dayadhvam. And the last "Shanti, Shanti, Shanti" These hold immense meaning in themselves. To just minimise these words as mere "chants" is doing harm to the deep meaning of the poem itself.

      Seems like people who already know a lot about the poem are upset this intro video didn't say something you already know.

    He has what could charitably be called "an unfortunate voice", but it's a good survey of the poem.

    @MiceHellHillPips Před rokem +4

    Ooh this is good. But as a brit, I struggled a little with the noise and action - mega full on for such a piece!

  • @iuseitToo
    @iuseitToo Před 3 lety +6

    *SOMEONE* describes being given hyacinths? Is this not Ophelia from Hamlet? That's how she dies, the funeral had some flower action going on... great video. Maybe you purposely left that out... But yeah just plays into him cycling thru lit history from Greek and Hindu myths, the Fisher King, Shakespeare--that dialogue comes in so strangely! -- to a London old and new and dead... or something. I discover something new EVERY TIME I reread/listen to it. Thanks again!

    • @halfstep44
      @halfstep44 Před rokem +4

      @@raginyy perhaps that's why he does that. It is a contrast to the tone of other analysis videos. He does this for viewers who want something different than the typical vids that are available
      That being said I don't like his vocal tone but I think his analysis is not only spot on but a breath of fresh air compared to the other YT videos analyzing The Wasteland. Many of those videos are, in fact, quite good, but long winded and just overall blah blah blahhhh blahhhh blahhhh freakin blah (presents many challenges to the reader blah blah blah)
      I love how this narrator gets straight to the point and makes the best use of the time alloted to his goal
