00:00:13,200 --> 00:00:19,920
Assalamu alaikum. How are you today? Are you fine?
2
00:00:24,740 --> 00:00:25,880
I think
3
00:00:29,990 --> 00:00:31,650
May I have your attention please?
4
00:00:36,510 --> 00:00:38,450
What are you talking about? It seems like you are
5
00:00:38,450 --> 00:00:43,130
having exam today. Okay, so we don't want to be
6
00:00:43,130 --> 00:00:48,070
very long today. Today's class is going to be like
7
00:00:48,070 --> 00:00:52,710
this. As usual, we're going to listen to a couple
8
00:00:52,710 --> 00:00:56,470
of reports. Then I'm going to ask you about your
9
00:00:56,470 --> 00:00:59,740
response to the poem, The Daffodils. And today we
10
00:00:59,740 --> 00:01:03,480
have some change. We have a student who's going to
11
00:01:03,480 --> 00:01:09,900
present the daffodils. I might interfere. I'm not
12
00:01:09,900 --> 00:01:14,800
sure. It is, you know, up to her. Do you want me
13
00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:19,060
to comment? Okay. I don't want to confuse you. But
14
00:01:19,060 --> 00:01:22,580
if I find difficult to, you know, interfere today,
15
00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:26,540
I might like in a follow-up class give my own
16
00:01:26,540 --> 00:01:31,550
class, okay? So this is what we are going to do
17
00:01:31,550 --> 00:01:38,110
today. Let's see, you know, who's going to report.
18
00:01:40,770 --> 00:01:45,890
Yes, please. The lady there. Yes. Can you come and
19
00:01:45,890 --> 00:01:46,510
report here?
20
00:01:54,730 --> 00:01:56,730
This is the first time you come here? Just come
21
00:01:56,730 --> 00:02:01,160
here, okay. Say good morning. Good morning. It's
22
00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:04,300
Monday, nine o'clock, when Dr. Habib came to the
23
00:02:04,300 --> 00:02:07,100
lecture and began with us the lecture. As usual,
24
00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:10,140
we began with two reports. Then Dr. Habib began
25
00:02:10,140 --> 00:02:14,260
the new born residuals with a single explanation
26
00:02:14,260 --> 00:02:20,700
about romanticism, and he let Ms. Ahlam complete
27
00:02:20,700 --> 00:02:23,740
the explanation about this movement of
28
00:02:23,740 --> 00:02:29,390
romanticism. At that time, she told us about
29
00:02:29,390 --> 00:02:32,970
William, the poet, and his relationship between
30
00:02:32,970 --> 00:02:36,890
him and nature, and how he was in love with
31
00:02:36,890 --> 00:02:39,910
nature. Next lecture, we will continue on this
32
00:02:39,910 --> 00:02:42,970
one. By the way, Ms. Ahlam came to the advanced
33
00:02:42,970 --> 00:02:48,110
writing lecture and attended with us, and all of
34
00:02:48,110 --> 00:02:51,250
the girls were happy for that surprise. Yes, okay,
35
00:02:51,390 --> 00:02:56,170
thank you very much. Still there is a place for a
36
00:02:56,170 --> 00:03:02,310
space for another report. Today I'm like choosing,
37
00:03:02,650 --> 00:03:06,630
you know. Yes, you.
38
00:03:21,940 --> 00:03:25,560
Good morning. Dr. Akram come at nine o'clock. He
39
00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:28,420
began the lecture as usual. He chose some students
40
00:03:28,420 --> 00:03:31,000
to read their report, and he began the
41
00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:33,700
explanation. He introduced the new born, which is
42
00:03:33,700 --> 00:03:37,020
daffodil. Mrs. Ahlam will share, Dr. Habib, in his
43
00:03:37,020 --> 00:03:40,500
explanation. She began the lecture. She welcomed
44
00:03:40,500 --> 00:03:43,920
the student. Then she began the explanation by
45
00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:46,860
introducing what is potry. By introducing what is
46
00:03:46,860 --> 00:03:51,190
potry. Then, yes, who is the poet? And then it
47
00:03:51,190 --> 00:03:54,510
began to explanation the definition of the
48
00:03:54,510 --> 00:04:00,510
romanticism and the elements of romantic period.
49
00:04:01,010 --> 00:04:04,330
Finally, I liked Mrs. Ahlam way in presenting this
50
00:04:04,330 --> 00:04:07,590
information in a simple way. Very good. So thank
51
00:04:07,590 --> 00:04:11,670
you very much. Yes, last time we had a wonderful
52
00:04:11,670 --> 00:04:16,450
introduction about you know, romanticism. And it
53
00:04:16,450 --> 00:04:20,130
was like completing the image we started in
54
00:04:20,130 --> 00:04:25,630
William Blake. Today, I think, you know, Like with
55
00:04:25,630 --> 00:04:27,730
the daffodils, we might have a better
56
00:04:27,730 --> 00:04:31,490
understanding of the abstract things like, because
57
00:04:31,490 --> 00:04:34,530
last time, we talked about abstract things, you
58
00:04:34,530 --> 00:04:37,390
know, like the relation between man and nature,
59
00:04:38,030 --> 00:04:40,330
you know, poetry, the spontaneous overflow,
60
00:04:40,570 --> 00:04:44,110
powerful feelings. You know, we talk about that in
61
00:04:44,110 --> 00:04:46,710
a very abstract way. So today, we are going to see
62
00:04:46,710 --> 00:04:50,590
this hopefully in the poem. But before we start,
63
00:04:50,690 --> 00:04:54,170
like the poem, looking at the poem, I want like,
64
00:04:54,880 --> 00:04:57,240
you to tell me, what do you think of the poem? Who
65
00:04:57,240 --> 00:05:02,980
wrote a response to the poem? Yes, please. Just
66
00:05:02,980 --> 00:05:05,380
this is a written response, then I'll ask, I'll be
67
00:05:05,380 --> 00:05:08,560
asking, you know, you about your oral response.
68
00:05:10,110 --> 00:05:12,690
How are you? Good morning, everybody. The Devils
69
00:05:12,690 --> 00:05:17,710
is one of the most famous poems written by William
70
00:05:17,710 --> 00:05:22,010
Wordsworth, who is a major English romantic poet
71
00:05:22,010 --> 00:05:24,370
and helped to launch the Romantic Age in English
72
00:05:24,370 --> 00:05:27,050
literature. The Devils, how beautiful the title
73
00:05:27,050 --> 00:05:30,430
is. Everyone will like the poem because it is
74
00:05:30,430 --> 00:05:33,610
written brilliantly and it really paints a picture
75
00:05:33,610 --> 00:05:36,790
in the reader's mind. Also, it's easy to read, and
76
00:05:36,790 --> 00:05:39,870
some people might even consider it relaxing. The
77
00:05:39,870 --> 00:05:41,790
poem clearly describes the appearance of the
78
00:05:41,790 --> 00:05:46,010
daffodils and that what's worth encountered in a
79
00:05:46,010 --> 00:05:49,990
stormy day when he walking by his water in England
80
00:05:49,990 --> 00:05:52,770
and especially focusing on the way that the
81
00:05:52,770 --> 00:05:56,110
daffodils look, dancing, and if they are in a
82
00:05:56,110 --> 00:05:58,510
breeze day. The poem reflects the inherent
83
00:05:58,510 --> 00:06:01,150
connection between the man and the nature, which
84
00:06:01,150 --> 00:06:04,640
is so commonly found in William's poetry. The
85
00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:06,760
video discloses the relationship between nature
86
00:06:06,760 --> 00:06:09,400
and human beings, how nature can affect one
87
00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:13,100
emotion and behavior with its emotion and sound.
88
00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:15,680
From the very beginning, the speaker
89
00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:17,780
metaphorically compares himself to the cloud,
90
00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:21,000
creating a sense of isolation from the rest of the
91
00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:26,890
world. He compares between the lonesome feeling of
92
00:06:26,890 --> 00:06:30,650
the speaker with his happy memories or even
93
00:06:30,650 --> 00:06:33,950
experiences with nature. This shows that looking
94
00:06:33,950 --> 00:06:36,110
at the daffodils makes the speaker feel better.
95
00:06:36,550 --> 00:06:39,050
This is indicated by the last line of the poem.
96
00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:42,520
The theme of the poem might be about enjoining the
97
00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:44,860
nature and its elements, or the collection of
98
00:06:44,860 --> 00:06:47,600
human emotions inspired by nature. The poem is
99
00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:52,040
rich of the visual images that used to convey his
100
00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:54,920
appreciation of nature. Talking about figurative
101
00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:57,800
speech, the poem is full of the similes, the
102
00:06:57,800 --> 00:07:01,700
metaphors, and persification. And it also consists
103
00:07:01,700 --> 00:07:04,710
of four stanzas which have got six lines. Okay,
104
00:07:04,770 --> 00:07:07,090
thank you. This is very advanced response. I like
105
00:07:07,090 --> 00:07:11,890
it very much. It's a good response. It seems like
106
00:07:11,890 --> 00:07:16,490
she paid or she exerted tremendous efforts in
107
00:07:16,490 --> 00:07:20,610
reading the poem and writing her response. Good,
108
00:07:20,650 --> 00:07:23,250
what do you think? Do you like the poem? You don't
109
00:07:23,250 --> 00:07:25,850
like it? Is it a good poem? What do you think?
110
00:07:25,930 --> 00:07:30,050
Yes. Exactly, I like the poem because it talks
111
00:07:30,050 --> 00:07:30,390
about
112
00:07:39,030 --> 00:07:41,250
about the beauty of nature as a source of
113
00:07:41,250 --> 00:07:45,730
inspiration and we find that the poet in the first
114
00:07:45,730 --> 00:07:50,290
stanza is having a pessimistic point of view and
115
00:07:50,290 --> 00:07:53,510
he suffers from sadness and grief but in the other
116
00:07:53,510 --> 00:07:58,010
one or in the other or in the last stanza he has
117
00:07:58,010 --> 00:08:00,690
an opposite point of view which is optimistic, he
118
00:08:00,690 --> 00:08:04,880
becomes optimistic Yes, so they want to say like
119
00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:07,420
there is a movement. He started by being lonely
120
00:08:07,420 --> 00:08:10,960
and then he ended by dancing with the daffodils.
121
00:08:11,700 --> 00:08:16,140
So it is very important to know what happened and
122
00:08:16,140 --> 00:08:20,480
how his mood changed. It's very important. What
123
00:08:20,480 --> 00:08:23,820
made his mood change? Was it like because he saw
124
00:08:23,820 --> 00:08:26,820
the daffodils and because the daffodils were
125
00:08:26,820 --> 00:08:29,720
dancing? Or was it beyond this? Because this is
126
00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:34,140
very important. You know, I'm a little bit, you
127
00:08:34,140 --> 00:08:42,590
know, I mean, Concerning the pathetic fallacy, I'm
128
00:08:42,590 --> 00:08:46,070
a little bit reserved about nature being
129
00:08:46,070 --> 00:08:48,990
sympathetic with man, mainly in this poem. It is
130
00:08:48,990 --> 00:08:52,830
more than this. We'll discover that it is not a
131
00:08:52,830 --> 00:08:57,570
pathetic fallacy. It is not a pathetic fallacy or
132
00:08:57,570 --> 00:09:02,550
nature sympathizing with man. It is more than
133
00:09:02,550 --> 00:09:03,810
this. Okay?
134
00:09:09,180 --> 00:09:13,340
Yes, you were talking. Okay. Yes. Thank you.
135
00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:30,480
So you
136
00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:36,710
think The inward eye was the most important thing.
137
00:09:36,950 --> 00:09:45,350
The inward eye was perhaps the strong visionary
138
00:09:45,350 --> 00:09:50,350
tool which made the poet see something different
139
00:09:50,350 --> 00:09:57,300
from the common man. Okay, good. What else? Yes,
140
00:09:57,640 --> 00:10:00,180
Jahan? As we all know, the daffodils is like a
141
00:10:00,180 --> 00:10:02,940
manifestation of the romantic period, because we
142
00:10:02,940 --> 00:10:06,160
took Blake, and Blake was sort of like the pre
143
00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:10,860
-romantic, and it wasn't kind of like manifested
144
00:10:10,860 --> 00:10:15,820
in a very clear way. His speculations in his
145
00:10:15,820 --> 00:10:19,340
writings were still a bit vague in terms of being
146
00:10:19,340 --> 00:10:21,980
romantic or not. So you want to say like here...
147
00:10:21,980 --> 00:10:24,500
With daffodils, we see Wordsworth is actually
148
00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:27,600
Drawing the lines and it's actually making it
149
00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:32,220
clear for what is romanticism the the the the
150
00:10:32,810 --> 00:10:36,090
themes of romanticism, nature, and also poetry,
151
00:10:36,410 --> 00:10:38,970
and tranquility, and solitude, and all these
152
00:10:38,970 --> 00:10:41,230
things. We can see them very clearly in the
153
00:10:41,230 --> 00:10:45,390
Daffodil. Yeah, we can see the characteristics of
154
00:10:45,390 --> 00:10:51,590
romanticism very clear in this poem. Not like
155
00:10:51,590 --> 00:10:55,410
Blake, they were latent, they were hidden. Here we
156
00:10:55,410 --> 00:11:00,950
can see them clearly. Yes? What do you think? They
157
00:11:00,950 --> 00:11:05,230
are the ladies at the back? Do you like the poem?
158
00:11:06,490 --> 00:11:10,810
Were you happy when you read it? Yes?
159
00:11:18,250 --> 00:11:26,910
Has anybody
160
00:11:26,910 --> 00:11:33,530
paid attention to the tenses? Like the tense, I
161
00:11:33,530 --> 00:11:37,630
wandered alone as a cloud, and then it ended with
162
00:11:37,630 --> 00:11:41,710
my heart dances with the daffodils. Has anybody
163
00:11:41,710 --> 00:11:45,430
compared, you know, like the first stanza with the
164
00:11:45,430 --> 00:11:51,530
last stanza? Have you? Have you? Actually, I think
165
00:11:51,530 --> 00:11:54,330
in the first stanza he used the boss tense when he
166
00:11:54,330 --> 00:11:59,450
was pessimistic and very sad. But in the last
167
00:11:59,450 --> 00:12:03,990
stanza, he begins dancing with the daffodils. That
168
00:12:03,990 --> 00:12:07,730
means the beautiful nature, the beauty of nature
169
00:12:07,730 --> 00:12:13,410
changed him from the pessimistic mood to the
170
00:12:13,410 --> 00:12:17,690
optimistic mood. Okay, I know you are going to
171
00:12:17,690 --> 00:12:20,470
answer this. First of all, when he's talking about
172
00:12:20,470 --> 00:12:24,650
the past tense, he's talking about his previous
173
00:12:24,650 --> 00:12:27,950
experience when he was working beneath the
174
00:12:27,950 --> 00:12:30,350
daffodils, beneath the fields of daffodils. Then
175
00:12:30,350 --> 00:12:33,870
after that, when he's talking with the present
176
00:12:33,870 --> 00:12:38,090
tense, he's talking about his recollecting of that
177
00:12:38,090 --> 00:12:41,250
experience while he was writing his poem. So that
178
00:12:41,250 --> 00:12:44,980
suits the tenses in the poem. I don't know, like
179
00:12:44,980 --> 00:12:47,400
the present simpletons is very important, like for
180
00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:51,760
the romantics, you know? If you remember, like,
181
00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:56,420
yeah, yeah, it has to do with permanence, even the
182
00:12:56,420 --> 00:12:58,740
Rime of the Ancient Mariner, which is a story is
183
00:12:58,740 --> 00:13:02,240
told in the present simpletons. So the present
184
00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:08,100
simpletons is a key element in romanticism. You
185
00:13:08,100 --> 00:13:12,640
have to look at that. Good. Any other response?
186
00:13:15,370 --> 00:13:21,610
Okay, we don't want like, yes? No, pardon? To the
187
00:13:21,610 --> 00:13:24,810
poem. Do you have a poetic response to the poem,
188
00:13:25,030 --> 00:13:28,730
Jehan? As usual? No, I mean, was it in poetry?
189
00:13:29,530 --> 00:13:39,770
Okay. You know, Jehan always likes to versify a
190
00:13:39,770 --> 00:13:40,190
response.
191
00:13:43,890 --> 00:13:46,610
Okay, I read this. I wandered lonely between my
192
00:13:46,610 --> 00:13:49,430
books, this exam, that exams, and research hooks,
193
00:13:49,770 --> 00:13:52,250
when all at once I did realize the semester and
194
00:13:52,250 --> 00:13:54,550
the class are sweeping away. Daffodil's
195
00:13:54,550 --> 00:13:57,290
Wordsworth's pen remarked, a manifestation of
196
00:13:57,290 --> 00:14:00,790
romanticism in our books engraved. A revolution it
197
00:14:00,790 --> 00:14:02,770
was for nature they pursued, imagination,
198
00:14:03,150 --> 00:14:05,610
thoughts, and powerful feelings, to the era they
199
00:14:05,610 --> 00:14:10,110
are all supposed to be healings. So, as well, I
200
00:14:10,110 --> 00:14:12,390
recollected my thoughts in tranquility as
201
00:14:12,390 --> 00:14:15,160
Wordsworth stays. Thank you very much. Again, like
202
00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:18,300
she tried to versify this time, but I know like
203
00:14:18,300 --> 00:14:21,620
why she doesn't like it because it seems like she
204
00:14:21,620 --> 00:14:25,220
was very busy, but it's very good. Okay, I think
205
00:14:25,220 --> 00:14:30,220
it's time for Ola to take the floor. She has, you
206
00:14:30,220 --> 00:14:34,140
know, the 30 minutes she asked for and good.
207
00:15:10,730 --> 00:15:11,230
Okay,
208
00:15:17,810 --> 00:15:19,750
good morning everybody. My name is Oana Al
209
00:15:19,750 --> 00:15:21,910
-Mashrykh and I'm here today to introduce to you
210
00:15:21,910 --> 00:15:24,090
the Daffodils by William Wordsworth.
211
00:15:27,080 --> 00:15:29,840
So I will talk about William Wordsworth, then I
212
00:15:29,840 --> 00:15:31,620
will talk about the characteristics of William
213
00:15:31,620 --> 00:15:34,480
Wordsworth, or especially the poetry of William
214
00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:37,340
Wordsworth, then analysis of the poem, then I will
215
00:15:37,340 --> 00:15:39,440
talk about the themes, rhyme and rhythm, figures
216
00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:41,900
of speech, and finally, I will talk about the
217
00:15:41,900 --> 00:15:44,180
characteristics of romanticism applied in this
218
00:15:44,180 --> 00:15:49,220
poem. So William Wordsworth was a major English
219
00:15:49,220 --> 00:15:51,880
romantic poet who with some multilayered colors
220
00:15:51,880 --> 00:15:55,170
wrote that we know of course, helped launch the
221
00:15:55,170 --> 00:15:58,570
Romantic Age. They led the Romantic Age, and
222
00:15:58,570 --> 00:16:01,410
they're the first poets who wrote about the
223
00:16:01,410 --> 00:16:04,670
Romanticism. He wrote, he's the one who wrote the
224
00:16:04,670 --> 00:16:06,830
lyrical ballads, which is the collection, a
225
00:16:06,830 --> 00:16:09,810
collection of poets, of poems written in a
226
00:16:09,810 --> 00:16:12,450
romantic way. The factors that affected his way
227
00:16:12,450 --> 00:16:15,270
and thinking that it's the French Revolution and
228
00:16:15,270 --> 00:16:17,970
also the Industrial Revolution that we were
229
00:16:17,970 --> 00:16:20,770
introduced in the previous lectures. His writings
230
00:16:20,770 --> 00:16:23,810
was, his writing was a movement away from those of
231
00:16:23,810 --> 00:16:26,210
his peers who wrote especially for educated
232
00:16:26,210 --> 00:16:30,470
aristocrats and intellectual elites, that he was
233
00:16:30,470 --> 00:16:32,590
writing for the common people, he was writing for
234
00:16:32,590 --> 00:16:35,190
the ordinary people in a simple way, in simple
235
00:16:35,190 --> 00:16:38,870
words, not like his previous era who were liking,
236
00:16:39,370 --> 00:16:42,650
who liked writing for the elites in a very
237
00:16:42,650 --> 00:16:46,000
complicated way. Then he wrote this poem, I
238
00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:49,340
Wandered Lonely, as a cloud or like some might
239
00:16:49,340 --> 00:16:53,560
call it the daffodils while he was working to
240
00:16:53,560 --> 00:17:00,000
express his experience when he was working in the
241
00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:04,880
place called what? Lake District. It's like a
242
00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:11,530
place of many lakes. in Britain, he was working
243
00:17:11,530 --> 00:17:16,030
with his sister Dorothy while they came across
244
00:17:16,030 --> 00:17:19,490
this field of daffodils. So after two years of
245
00:17:19,490 --> 00:17:22,510
this experience, he managed to write this poem
246
00:17:22,510 --> 00:17:26,590
that inspired him to write this poem after two
247
00:17:26,590 --> 00:17:26,910
years.
248
00:17:31,770 --> 00:17:34,990
Yeah, so he like was inspired by her diaries when
249
00:17:34,990 --> 00:17:38,810
he read them. Yeah, and there's like many lines,
250
00:17:39,010 --> 00:17:41,330
like two lines of this poem was written by his
251
00:17:41,330 --> 00:17:49,050
wife, Mary. Yeah, this experience. And he also
252
00:17:49,050 --> 00:17:52,370
considered these two lines as of the most
253
00:17:52,370 --> 00:17:57,590
beautiful lines in his poem. So he saw this field
254
00:17:57,590 --> 00:18:01,290
of daffodils in 1802 and he wrote this poem after
255
00:18:01,290 --> 00:18:06,710
two years like might be in 1804. So the
256
00:18:06,710 --> 00:18:09,970
characteristics of Wordsworth's poetry was like
257
00:18:09,970 --> 00:18:13,430
balance between mind and emotion. In his poems and
258
00:18:13,430 --> 00:18:16,330
his poetry, he makes balance between mind and
259
00:18:16,330 --> 00:18:19,250
emotion since he considered that poetry is a
260
00:18:19,250 --> 00:18:23,130
combination of reason and imagination. Also that
261
00:18:23,130 --> 00:18:26,230
poetry is an experience. Poetry is an experience
262
00:18:26,230 --> 00:18:30,830
that is aroused in a very simple style themes to
263
00:18:30,830 --> 00:18:35,750
introduce his poems to the ordinary and common
264
00:18:35,750 --> 00:18:39,650
people. A poet is a teacher, but the difference
265
00:18:39,650 --> 00:18:43,290
between the poet and the ordinary teacher that the
266
00:18:43,290 --> 00:18:46,850
poet teaches through the medium of pleasure. So he
267
00:18:46,850 --> 00:18:52,050
has to please his reader in order to teach him.
268
00:18:52,900 --> 00:18:56,440
Yeah, I think you hear why the teaching is by
269
00:18:56,440 --> 00:18:59,200
intuition, not by reason. Yeah. Not by
270
00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:03,320
rationalization. Exactly. Because, you know, in
271
00:19:03,320 --> 00:19:07,220
the ninth classical age, like, poetry was
272
00:19:07,220 --> 00:19:12,200
didactic. They were teaching in a very direct way.
273
00:19:12,600 --> 00:19:15,200
Like, if you look at Alexander's book, first
274
00:19:15,200 --> 00:19:17,100
foreign nature and your judgment
275
00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:34,340
Okay, see what I mean?
276
00:19:37,540 --> 00:19:39,880
Okay, there is human and nature are topics for
277
00:19:39,880 --> 00:19:47,200
romantic poetry. In his poetry, he sees that human
278
00:19:47,200 --> 00:19:52,800
is no more neglected as in the previous eras from
279
00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:58,060
the new classic poets. And also that the nature
280
00:19:58,060 --> 00:20:01,280
also a topic for romantic poetry since nature was
281
00:20:01,280 --> 00:20:07,280
neglected in other periods before him. and that
282
00:20:07,280 --> 00:20:10,260
nature is opposite to the mechanism and to the
283
00:20:10,260 --> 00:20:14,120
corrupted society that was in that, before that
284
00:20:14,120 --> 00:20:20,180
time. Revolution-like. He start to regain the lost
285
00:20:20,180 --> 00:20:23,540
dignity for human and nature. Yeah. Because nature
286
00:20:23,540 --> 00:20:27,580
was abused by the values of the night classic. Man
287
00:20:27,580 --> 00:20:30,160
was abused by the values of the night classic. So
288
00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:34,840
we're talking about a man who was trying to regain
289
00:20:34,840 --> 00:20:39,970
dignity. Then the connection between poet's
290
00:20:39,970 --> 00:20:44,730
feelings and ideas. He believed that to convey his
291
00:20:44,730 --> 00:20:50,170
message to the reader properly, he should connect
292
00:20:50,170 --> 00:20:53,870
between feelings and ideas to express his poetic
293
00:20:53,870 --> 00:20:57,390
experience. And finally, the poet is a creative
294
00:20:57,390 --> 00:21:01,610
person. is creative, not as the ordinary people
295
00:21:01,610 --> 00:21:04,530
that sees everything in an ordinary way. He
296
00:21:04,530 --> 00:21:07,570
considers everything like when he wrote the
297
00:21:07,570 --> 00:21:10,450
daffodils. When we say that the daffodils are like
298
00:21:10,450 --> 00:21:13,890
simple creatures that no one can like give a shit
299
00:21:13,890 --> 00:21:19,550
to them. So the poet himself can consider
300
00:21:19,550 --> 00:21:22,410
everything as an inspiration for him to write
301
00:21:22,410 --> 00:21:24,890
about. It's very good, like the poet is creative
302
00:21:24,890 --> 00:21:28,690
because you know, The poets of the, you know, 18th
303
00:21:28,690 --> 00:21:30,790
century in the United States were imitating
304
00:21:30,790 --> 00:21:35,010
nature. Were imitating nature. You remember
305
00:21:35,010 --> 00:21:37,510
Dryden? You know, art is an imitation. You
306
00:21:37,510 --> 00:21:41,190
remember Alexander Poe? All of them were imitating
307
00:21:41,190 --> 00:21:45,950
for the sake of teaching and delight. Here, like
308
00:21:45,950 --> 00:21:50,570
he's creating, is he creating nature? No. What is
309
00:21:50,570 --> 00:21:54,150
he creating? He's creating like feelings toward
310
00:21:54,150 --> 00:21:57,850
nature. I don't know, like, he might be creating a
311
00:21:57,850 --> 00:22:00,890
new nature, you know, because this is more... Like
312
00:22:00,890 --> 00:22:05,070
visualizing and like, uh-huh, so personifying. Now
313
00:22:05,070 --> 00:22:07,810
I will take you in a very small journey to the
314
00:22:07,810 --> 00:22:11,310
place where Wordsworth found this field of
315
00:22:11,310 --> 00:22:15,110
daffodils in Lake District or Jersme.
316
00:22:18,490 --> 00:22:24,130
We'll travel from our university to that place. To
317
00:22:24,130 --> 00:22:28,410
the dove cottage? Yeah, to the doctor. It doesn't
318
00:22:28,410 --> 00:22:28,770
work.
319
00:22:32,350 --> 00:22:36,910
No, it doesn't work. I don't know why.
320
00:22:41,250 --> 00:22:42,410
It works on my laptop.
321
00:22:47,470 --> 00:22:50,350
Maybe because it's this...
322
00:22:55,950 --> 00:22:58,110
I have a song, this song, it doesn't work here.
323
00:22:58,110 --> 00:23:01,030
Yeah, and I have... You have a song? I have also,
324
00:23:01,090 --> 00:23:04,090
I have also about, I have also. Okay. It's just,
325
00:23:04,630 --> 00:23:08,010
it doesn't work here. No problem. Can you give me
326
00:23:08,010 --> 00:23:12,490
more, like... Start from there, it's the song,
327
00:23:12,610 --> 00:23:15,230
yes? No, it's not the song. It's a journey, then
328
00:23:15,230 --> 00:23:17,890
after it will be the song. Okay, you know, like
329
00:23:17,890 --> 00:23:22,550
imagine that you came to the, like, big district.
330
00:23:22,990 --> 00:23:25,810
I was there myself. Tell me why it doesn't work.
331
00:23:27,790 --> 00:23:32,470
And I had some time to sit on the couch, which is
332
00:23:32,470 --> 00:23:34,990
mentioned in the poem. In fact, the scene is very
333
00:23:34,990 --> 00:23:38,030
captivating. You know, the lake area is a mountain
334
00:23:38,030 --> 00:23:41,090
surrounded by, sorry, it's a lake surrounded by
335
00:23:41,090 --> 00:23:44,930
areas and by a lot of beautiful daffodils around
336
00:23:44,930 --> 00:23:48,450
the bay. So, I mean, the scene was very
337
00:23:48,450 --> 00:23:52,130
fascinating. So, next time I'll be showing them
338
00:23:52,130 --> 00:23:54,990
the scene. You just start the poem, go ahead.
339
00:23:55,090 --> 00:24:01,450
Okay. Because we're running out of time. In the
340
00:24:01,450 --> 00:24:05,250
first stanza... In the first stanza, I wandered
341
00:24:05,250 --> 00:24:08,350
alone... I just want a girl to read this stanza.
342
00:24:08,890 --> 00:24:13,130
Because we have no, like, reader. Who wants to
343
00:24:13,130 --> 00:24:20,670
read? I wandered lonely as a dove. Come on. Come
344
00:24:20,670 --> 00:24:23,080
on, Jihan. Yeah.
345
00:24:25,460 --> 00:24:29,120
I wandered lonely as a cloud that floats on high
346
00:24:29,120 --> 00:24:33,720
over vales and hills. Could you raise your? I
347
00:24:33,720 --> 00:24:36,880
wandered lonely as a cloud that floats on high
348
00:24:36,880 --> 00:24:40,280
over vales and hills, when all at once I saw a
349
00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:44,060
crowd, a host of golden daffodils, beside the lake
350
00:24:44,060 --> 00:24:46,880
beneath the trees, fluttering and dancing in the
351
00:24:46,880 --> 00:24:50,480
breeze, continuous as the stars that shine and
352
00:24:50,480 --> 00:24:53,760
twinkle in the milky way. They stretch a never
353
00:24:53,760 --> 00:24:57,640
-ending line along the margin of a bay. Ten
354
00:24:57,640 --> 00:25:01,280
thousand saw I advance, tossing their heads in
355
00:25:01,280 --> 00:25:05,220
spirited dance. The waves beside them danced, but
356
00:25:05,220 --> 00:25:08,860
they outdid the sparkling leaves in glee. A poet
357
00:25:08,860 --> 00:25:13,520
could not but be gay, be but gay. It's the most
358
00:25:13,520 --> 00:25:17,660
difficult line. A poet could not but be gay in
359
00:25:17,660 --> 00:25:21,120
such a joke on company. Company. Yeah, not
360
00:25:21,120 --> 00:25:25,900
company. because you know me right. Yeah. Yeah. I
361
00:25:25,900 --> 00:25:29,020
gazed and gazed, but little thought what wealth
362
00:25:29,020 --> 00:25:32,800
this show to me had brought. For oft when on my
363
00:25:32,800 --> 00:25:36,240
couch I lie in vacant or intensive mood, they
364
00:25:36,240 --> 00:25:39,520
flash upon that inward eye, which is the bliss of
365
00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:42,780
solitude, and then my heart will play the bells
366
00:25:42,780 --> 00:25:45,180
and dances with the daffodils. Yeah, thank you
367
00:25:45,180 --> 00:25:49,100
very much. Yeah, thank you. Like, I think, you
368
00:25:49,100 --> 00:25:52,220
know, you can read it better, you know. I'm not
369
00:25:52,220 --> 00:25:55,140
good at research. No, no, no. Like it should be,
370
00:25:55,300 --> 00:25:58,640
you know, like when you say like, I don't know,
371
00:25:58,700 --> 00:26:01,600
you can bring, I wandered lonely as a cloud, like
372
00:26:01,600 --> 00:26:05,460
this is very, I wandered lonely as a cloud that's
373
00:26:05,460 --> 00:26:07,820
close over the vales and hills.
374
00:26:24,590 --> 00:26:27,930
You all hear it? Because the poet started to
375
00:26:27,930 --> 00:26:30,850
interact with nature. You guys see what I mean?
376
00:26:31,190 --> 00:26:31,610
Good.
377
00:26:35,350 --> 00:26:38,670
So in this stanza, the poet expresses his life
378
00:26:38,670 --> 00:26:41,310
experience with his sister while they were walking
379
00:26:41,310 --> 00:26:44,390
beneath the fields, and they came across this
380
00:26:44,390 --> 00:26:48,610
field of daffodils. These fields of daffodils were
381
00:26:48,610 --> 00:26:50,990
like a huge field.
382
00:26:52,790 --> 00:26:55,950
And the first, from the first, from the very
383
00:26:55,950 --> 00:26:59,410
beginning of this stanza, he was like, he was like
384
00:26:59,410 --> 00:27:03,730
a lonely, lonely as a cloud. And this, that it
385
00:27:03,730 --> 00:27:06,390
loots on, that it loots on high over vales and
386
00:27:06,390 --> 00:27:09,330
hills, when all at once I saw a crowd, a host of
387
00:27:09,330 --> 00:27:12,250
golden daffodils. So it might be like a
388
00:27:12,250 --> 00:27:16,210
description for the field of daffodils, that it's
389
00:27:16,210 --> 00:27:19,570
like golden daffodils, the yellow color of the
390
00:27:19,570 --> 00:27:22,880
flowers. beside the lake beneath the trees, that
391
00:27:22,880 --> 00:27:26,660
all these daffodils along the shore of the lake
392
00:27:26,660 --> 00:27:30,220
were stretches because of the huge number of them,
393
00:27:30,500 --> 00:27:33,280
fluttering and dancing in the breeze, like they
394
00:27:33,280 --> 00:27:35,860
were dancing and fluttering in a very cheerful
395
00:27:35,860 --> 00:27:38,520
way, that they were very happy because of the
396
00:27:38,520 --> 00:27:45,860
nature. So they... The parent might mean in this
397
00:27:45,860 --> 00:27:50,140
stanza that he wants us to express the disconnect
398
00:27:50,140 --> 00:27:53,820
and the dispassionate way that we all live in our
399
00:27:53,820 --> 00:27:57,500
lives. That we have like no aim in our life. We
400
00:27:57,500 --> 00:28:01,420
are aimless people. So the nature is like an
401
00:28:01,420 --> 00:28:04,680
inspiration for us. So we are like away from the
402
00:28:04,680 --> 00:28:09,290
nature. Yeah, this sounds like you know he's a
403
00:28:09,290 --> 00:28:12,170
pantheist yeah I don't think he was a pantheist
404
00:28:12,170 --> 00:28:15,610
but this shows like how now here he's celebrating
405
00:28:15,610 --> 00:28:19,790
nature yes he's wandering and you know why he was
406
00:28:19,790 --> 00:28:22,810
wandering like wandering here he was wandering
407
00:28:22,810 --> 00:28:25,690
lonely it means he was suffering from loneliness
408
00:28:25,690 --> 00:28:29,210
yes and we like in the previous lecture we
409
00:28:29,210 --> 00:28:34,280
understood that loneliness was as a As a result of
410
00:28:34,280 --> 00:28:37,160
all the abuses of the classical age, the
411
00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:40,420
industrial revolution, man was rejected because
412
00:28:40,420 --> 00:28:44,220
man lost his dignity. But you know, you see he's
413
00:28:44,220 --> 00:28:46,340
celebrating nature here. I like the way when you
414
00:28:46,340 --> 00:28:49,300
say nature is huge. There is a celebration of
415
00:28:49,300 --> 00:28:53,740
nature. How nature is distinguished here? Why is
416
00:28:53,740 --> 00:28:57,180
he celebrating nature here? Like look here, if you
417
00:28:57,180 --> 00:29:01,200
look, it is a crowd and then it becomes a host. So
418
00:29:01,200 --> 00:29:04,770
look. The way he gradually, you know, starts to
419
00:29:04,770 --> 00:29:08,670
perceive nature. He is not static. You know, he
420
00:29:08,670 --> 00:29:10,910
was lonely. He saw a crowd and the crowd
421
00:29:10,910 --> 00:29:14,650
contradicts with lonely. Then this crowd is a
422
00:29:14,650 --> 00:29:18,090
host. And you know what a host has all the
423
00:29:18,090 --> 00:29:22,130
positive connotation. A host means hospitality. A
424
00:29:22,130 --> 00:29:25,890
host means love, respect, you know, all of this
425
00:29:25,890 --> 00:29:31,170
compassion. And then beside, as she said, they are
426
00:29:31,170 --> 00:29:36,130
huge. beneath the trees, fluttering and dancing in
427
00:29:36,130 --> 00:29:39,670
the breeze. You see? They are everywhere. Like
428
00:29:39,670 --> 00:29:45,130
they are, you know, ample. You must be ample? A
429
00:29:45,130 --> 00:29:49,650
lot. So he celebrates the vastness of nature.
430
00:29:50,550 --> 00:29:54,710
Nature is very vast. Nature is huge. Nature is not
431
00:29:54,710 --> 00:29:57,490
a little thing. Nature is not just small animals.
432
00:29:58,290 --> 00:30:01,690
Nature is more than this, okay? And so regarding
433
00:30:01,690 --> 00:30:04,450
the word lonely as a cloud, as like most people
434
00:30:04,450 --> 00:30:07,770
are floating on the miles above the nature, miles
435
00:30:07,770 --> 00:30:14,370
above the real nature, and they like missing a lot
436
00:30:14,370 --> 00:30:19,130
of things, like they are missing the quiet virtues
437
00:30:19,130 --> 00:30:22,990
of nature, of the beauty, and of many
438
00:30:22,990 --> 00:30:26,950
characteristics of, or of many sources of
439
00:30:26,950 --> 00:30:30,810
emotional and spiritual nourishment. So when
440
00:30:30,810 --> 00:30:34,110
people are away of the nature, they are missing a
441
00:30:34,110 --> 00:30:38,170
lot of things, like he said. And this stands, it's
442
00:30:38,170 --> 00:30:40,630
like all it's about like description or
443
00:30:40,630 --> 00:30:44,450
description, especially description of the field
444
00:30:44,450 --> 00:30:47,670
of the daffodils, that it's continuous as the
445
00:30:47,670 --> 00:30:50,810
stars that shine and twinkle on the Milky Way. We
446
00:30:50,810 --> 00:30:53,830
know that the Milky Way is the name of our galaxy,
447
00:30:53,970 --> 00:30:56,780
that we live in. So he's like comparing the
448
00:30:56,780 --> 00:31:01,480
daffodils with the stars, that he's comparing the
449
00:31:01,480 --> 00:31:04,160
daffodils procession with the eternity of the
450
00:31:04,160 --> 00:31:07,140
stars, that he is also making, that he also
451
00:31:07,140 --> 00:31:11,420
creating a link between the daffodils and the
452
00:31:11,420 --> 00:31:14,620
stars, or he's like creating a link between the
453
00:31:14,620 --> 00:31:17,280
nature and the universe. So this
454
00:31:28,400 --> 00:31:32,020
In a phenomenon. It is not only an earthly
455
00:31:32,020 --> 00:31:36,680
phenomenon, okay? They structured a never-ending
456
00:31:36,680 --> 00:31:39,880
line along the margin of a bay. Ten thousand saw
457
00:31:39,880 --> 00:31:42,740
Ayatollahs tossing their heads in sparsely dance.
458
00:31:43,100 --> 00:31:46,340
So here like he's expressing the number of the
459
00:31:46,340 --> 00:31:49,540
daffodils like they are never-ending line. There's
460
00:31:49,540 --> 00:31:51,700
a huge number of daffodils in this field.
461
00:32:04,270 --> 00:32:06,670
And that's why, you know, so it should be written
462
00:32:06,670 --> 00:32:11,710
this way. They snatched it. Along the margin of
463
00:32:11,710 --> 00:32:17,930
the daily. And then, 10,000. So I. So I, what did
464
00:32:17,930 --> 00:32:23,770
I say? So I. Anastrophe. I don't know why. What
465
00:32:23,770 --> 00:32:25,970
are you doing? I'm just like wanting to do
466
00:32:25,970 --> 00:32:29,910
something. So I. So I. So I. Yeah, I know, but
467
00:32:29,910 --> 00:32:34,550
why? Why is this converging? Forget about what
468
00:32:34,550 --> 00:32:43,490
anyone would like to do. Ten thousand
469
00:32:43,490 --> 00:32:48,810
saw I at a glance to sink their heads in a
470
00:32:48,810 --> 00:32:52,780
sprightly dance. I like the IMG, I like the
471
00:32:52,780 --> 00:32:55,300
tossing. It's like humanizing the daffodils, like
472
00:32:55,300 --> 00:32:58,480
they are like human beings that are dancing and
473
00:32:58,480 --> 00:33:03,200
like tossing their heads. So it's like visualizing
474
00:33:03,200 --> 00:33:07,360
the experience, like he is like the reader to
475
00:33:07,360 --> 00:33:11,260
share his experience with him and to imagine the
476
00:33:11,260 --> 00:33:14,240
whole experience, the whole field of daffodils and
477
00:33:14,240 --> 00:33:19,020
why the poet decided to write about this field.
478
00:33:20,800 --> 00:33:24,400
The waves beside them dance, but they outdid the
479
00:33:24,400 --> 00:33:27,000
sparkling waves in glee. A poet could not but be
480
00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:30,920
gay. Like he's comparing between the troubling,
481
00:33:31,240 --> 00:33:35,440
the rumbling waves that are sparkling beside the
482
00:33:35,440 --> 00:33:41,280
field of daffodils and then And then that he is
483
00:33:41,280 --> 00:33:44,640
saying that the field of daffodils outdo like he,
484
00:33:45,160 --> 00:33:48,880
the daffodils defeated the rebelling waves in
485
00:33:48,880 --> 00:33:52,640
their like movement and dancing. So that this
486
00:33:52,640 --> 00:33:56,860
field of daffodils is like more amazing than
487
00:33:56,860 --> 00:33:59,740
anything in this nature. And then a poet could not
488
00:33:59,740 --> 00:34:02,480
but be gay in such a joking company. And at that
489
00:34:02,480 --> 00:34:05,360
time of that experience before two years, He was
490
00:34:05,360 --> 00:34:08,660
like, he was of course cheerful and like gleeful,
491
00:34:09,040 --> 00:34:13,740
but to not that extent that he like was while he
492
00:34:13,740 --> 00:34:16,160
was writing his poem. Like he was very cheerful,
493
00:34:16,620 --> 00:34:21,750
but he didn't appreciate the nature. But after two
494
00:34:21,750 --> 00:34:24,410
years, he didn't appreciate the scene before him
495
00:34:24,410 --> 00:34:27,930
while he was working with his sister. And after
496
00:34:27,930 --> 00:34:31,770
two years, he appreciated this scene more and more
497
00:34:31,770 --> 00:34:35,130
and started to write this scene in his poetry. Can
498
00:34:35,130 --> 00:34:38,530
I ask a question? Why did he say a man could not
499
00:34:38,530 --> 00:34:41,270
but be just gay? Why did he say a poet in
500
00:34:41,270 --> 00:34:46,070
particular? Can I answer? Okay, yes. Because an
501
00:34:46,070 --> 00:34:48,690
ordinary man cannot notice this cheerful or
502
00:34:48,690 --> 00:34:52,630
playful field of daffodils like the poet. The poet
503
00:34:52,630 --> 00:34:55,490
is very sensitive that he can notice anything in
504
00:34:55,490 --> 00:34:57,950
nature and he can be like touched. But we can
505
00:34:57,950 --> 00:35:02,410
notice everything in nature as well. But we cannot
506
00:35:02,410 --> 00:35:06,010
be touched. Why a poet could not but be just gay?
507
00:35:07,050 --> 00:35:09,210
Because he's more sensitive than ordinary people.
508
00:35:09,210 --> 00:35:14,510
Okay. More sensitive than you. He's more
509
00:35:14,510 --> 00:35:18,870
sensitive. He has a higher sensation. Teacher,
510
00:35:19,630 --> 00:35:21,690
like, the daffodils cannot touch our hearts like
511
00:35:21,690 --> 00:35:23,870
this, in this way. No, they can touch, you know.
512
00:35:23,970 --> 00:35:26,130
No. You see the daffodils, oh my God, they're
513
00:35:26,130 --> 00:35:27,370
loving you, they like you. There are many
514
00:35:27,370 --> 00:35:30,250
daffodils in the street and we never give like a
515
00:35:30,250 --> 00:35:32,670
glance to them. Yeah. But there's like the boat,
516
00:35:32,790 --> 00:35:36,420
it's very sensitive, he likes it a lot. We might
517
00:35:36,420 --> 00:35:38,420
sometimes, we have. We don't have that. Like
518
00:35:38,420 --> 00:35:41,440
little, like. No, we don't have that. We have, why
519
00:35:41,440 --> 00:35:43,960
not? No, no, no, we don't. It's very ordinary,
520
00:35:44,120 --> 00:35:46,820
like flower. You know, what are the levels? They
521
00:35:46,820 --> 00:35:50,520
are, we don't have these flowers that we can think
522
00:35:50,520 --> 00:35:53,820
of. It depends on the sphere. It depends on the
523
00:35:53,820 --> 00:35:58,160
sphere. He means about, especially about romantic
524
00:35:58,160 --> 00:36:02,080
feeling. That he feel the atmosphere around him,
525
00:36:02,320 --> 00:36:04,680
he should be happy in this aspect of the sphere.
526
00:36:07,520 --> 00:36:12,280
Yes, in fact, like, why would a housewife be happy
527
00:36:12,280 --> 00:36:15,900
in the kitchen? Because when she has all the
528
00:36:15,900 --> 00:36:18,820
ingredients for cooking, she would be happy. You
529
00:36:18,820 --> 00:36:23,440
know? Here, like a poet is having all the elements
530
00:36:23,440 --> 00:36:28,360
of creativity. Of creativity. Like he can, you
531
00:36:28,360 --> 00:36:32,380
know, create now. Why? Because he has everything
532
00:36:32,380 --> 00:36:35,690
in front of him. A poet could not but be gay,
533
00:36:36,130 --> 00:36:39,110
could not but, you know, but be gay, like accept.
534
00:36:39,470 --> 00:36:41,910
He has nothing to do except being happy. Why?
535
00:36:42,030 --> 00:36:45,110
Because this is his chance, this is his
536
00:36:45,110 --> 00:36:50,200
opportunity to create. Okay? Okay. I gazed and
537
00:36:50,200 --> 00:36:53,120
gazed but little thought what wealth to show to me
538
00:36:53,120 --> 00:36:56,160
had brought he's just like wondering how like this
539
00:36:56,160 --> 00:36:58,800
amazing field has like touched his heart and
540
00:36:58,800 --> 00:37:03,660
touches emotions by uh so and after that we have
541
00:37:03,660 --> 00:37:07,600
this fourth stanza for off twin on my couch I lie
542
00:37:07,600 --> 00:37:11,710
so this is like uh and recollecting of his
543
00:37:11,710 --> 00:37:15,950
emotions. The first three stanzas was about his
544
00:37:15,950 --> 00:37:18,970
experience in the past and the first stanza he was
545
00:37:18,970 --> 00:37:22,030
recollecting when he was studying the definition
546
00:37:22,030 --> 00:37:25,990
of poetry by William Wordsworth that poetry is a
547
00:37:25,990 --> 00:37:28,410
spontaneous overflow of powerful feelings
548
00:37:28,410 --> 00:37:31,570
recollected in tranquility. So here he applies
549
00:37:31,570 --> 00:37:36,380
this definition in his poem, like when he was in
550
00:37:36,380 --> 00:37:39,580
tranquility on his couch, on his couch with a
551
00:37:39,580 --> 00:37:42,820
pensive and vacant and relaxed mood, he
552
00:37:42,820 --> 00:37:45,100
recollected all that experience that happened
553
00:37:45,100 --> 00:37:48,000
before two years and he started writing about this
554
00:37:48,000 --> 00:37:50,700
experience in his poetry that flashed upon that
555
00:37:50,700 --> 00:37:54,440
inward eye, that it flashed in the poet himself,
556
00:37:54,920 --> 00:37:57,980
in the memory of the poet, which is a bliss of
557
00:37:57,980 --> 00:38:02,400
solitude. So this recollecting and writing is a
558
00:38:02,400 --> 00:38:06,240
bliss of solitude. Because he was alone with
559
00:38:06,240 --> 00:38:08,800
himself on his couch, lying on his couch, he
560
00:38:08,800 --> 00:38:10,960
started remembering and recollecting that
561
00:38:10,960 --> 00:38:13,680
experience. And then my heart with pleasure fills
562
00:38:13,680 --> 00:38:16,340
and dances with the daffodil. So when he was
563
00:38:16,340 --> 00:38:19,740
retrieving a memory of that experience, He felt
564
00:38:19,740 --> 00:38:23,300
very happy, he felt cheerful, delightful, gleeful,
565
00:38:23,660 --> 00:38:26,980
because at that time, he was dancing with the
566
00:38:26,980 --> 00:38:31,880
daffodils. So the experience started, so that
567
00:38:31,880 --> 00:38:35,280
experience that happened before two years remains
568
00:38:35,280 --> 00:38:39,180
with the poet after two years. And he also
569
00:38:39,180 --> 00:38:43,200
remembered that life, it was happening at this
570
00:38:43,200 --> 00:38:46,140
time. It's a replica of the same image, but this
571
00:38:46,140 --> 00:38:48,860
is the question. Like the image of the daffodils
572
00:38:48,860 --> 00:38:51,900
he stored in his mind. Yeah. Now when they flash,
573
00:38:52,540 --> 00:38:56,380
was it the same image or was it a reconstructed
574
00:38:56,380 --> 00:38:59,600
image in his mind? It was a reconstructed image.
575
00:38:59,680 --> 00:39:01,260
It was a reconstructed image. Yeah, for sure. It
576
00:39:01,260 --> 00:39:05,140
was a reconstructed image saved in his mind. More
577
00:39:05,140 --> 00:39:08,680
amazing also. So when he sits in a pensive, you
578
00:39:08,680 --> 00:39:13,620
know, or vacant like pool, they just like come
579
00:39:13,620 --> 00:39:15,980
like this. Yeah, flashing. And he's happy again.
580
00:39:16,930 --> 00:39:20,510
Look how nature is valuable. But nature is not on
581
00:39:20,510 --> 00:39:26,070
its own. Nature, you know, with the bliss of
582
00:39:26,070 --> 00:39:28,870
solitude, which is what? What is the bliss of
583
00:39:28,870 --> 00:39:36,390
solitude here? It is the inward I. It is the
584
00:39:36,390 --> 00:39:39,570
inward I, which is the bliss of solitude. What is
585
00:39:39,570 --> 00:39:45,230
the inward I? It is the imagination. It is the
586
00:39:45,230 --> 00:39:48,810
memory. the poetic imagination, the inward I. It
587
00:39:48,810 --> 00:39:52,530
is this powerful faculty which succeeded in
588
00:39:52,530 --> 00:39:56,570
reconstructing, you know, the whole experience and
589
00:39:56,570 --> 00:40:00,450
stored it in the poet's mind. So this is a
590
00:40:00,450 --> 00:40:04,710
valuable experience man can again dance with
591
00:40:04,710 --> 00:40:08,500
nature, you know, behave with nature. Now
592
00:40:08,500 --> 00:40:12,240
regarding the theme, it might be about the value
593
00:40:12,240 --> 00:40:14,440
of nature, that there are many considered themes,
594
00:40:14,560 --> 00:40:17,380
but I will focus on this theme, the value of
595
00:40:17,380 --> 00:40:22,860
nature. We for sure know that beauty is like a
596
00:40:22,860 --> 00:40:27,020
simple creature, it's like a simple creature that
597
00:40:27,020 --> 00:40:30,500
gives pleasures to anyone. So also the beauty of
598
00:40:30,500 --> 00:40:35,860
nature that everyone can also can always like feel
599
00:40:35,860 --> 00:40:38,320
in this heart and can always carry in this heart
600
00:40:38,320 --> 00:40:42,360
for for like many years. And so when Hertzworth
601
00:40:42,360 --> 00:40:46,600
like came across this field of daffodils, he felt
602
00:40:46,600 --> 00:40:50,550
pleased. And he felt excited. And he felt that
603
00:40:50,550 --> 00:40:54,090
he's like a part of the nature, like he's dancing
604
00:40:54,090 --> 00:40:56,870
with the daffodils in the breeze. So when the
605
00:40:56,870 --> 00:41:00,930
scene flashed back in his mind or his memory, he
606
00:41:00,930 --> 00:41:04,810
also felt that he's dancing in the same way that
607
00:41:04,810 --> 00:41:07,310
the daffodils were dancing before two years. He
608
00:41:07,310 --> 00:41:09,710
started to feel that he's a part of nature. So he
609
00:41:09,710 --> 00:41:12,170
started fluttering, dancing in a very cheerful
610
00:41:12,170 --> 00:41:16,390
way. So simple pleasures can cure a lonely heart,
611
00:41:16,770 --> 00:41:20,090
can make one happy. Sometimes you just have to
612
00:41:20,090 --> 00:41:23,750
look around, slow down. Don't be too catch up with
613
00:41:23,750 --> 00:41:26,210
the pace of the busy. Simple pleasurable
614
00:41:26,210 --> 00:41:31,870
experience. Don't be worrying about every trivial
615
00:41:31,870 --> 00:41:35,750
thing in your world. Just be relaxed and consider
616
00:41:35,750 --> 00:41:41,510
everything happy in your world. Is man rich? How
617
00:41:41,510 --> 00:41:47,270
is man rich? by nature by nature by this happy
618
00:41:47,270 --> 00:41:51,170
feeling this is power this is you know potential
619
00:41:51,170 --> 00:41:54,530
which is like a potential of creativity man can
620
00:41:54,530 --> 00:42:00,030
create man is positive man is not you know like a
621
00:42:00,030 --> 00:42:04,790
