Hello, we are staff and students in the English Literature and Creative Writing Department at Lancaster University. This channel began in lockdown with videos containing tips about studying both English Literature and Creative Writing at degree level. See our short films for tips for reading specific literary texts and literature more generally, about writing essays and creative works, as well as thoughts on heading to University, and study skills. We have continued to add videos of public lectures and seminars and hope you enjoy them!

Does anyone know the source for the quotation?
dr. tembo here. It’s an original composition by myself. I drew inspiration from Carl Sagan’s “Pale Blue Dot” as both an homage to the thinker, but also as a way of conveying the scale of what was lost in the destruction of Krypton. Thanks for watching!
@@ghostsolution Thank you Dr Tembo! It captures the scale and gravity well
Oh you gives me the desire to read this book !
Mr. Eagleton's this interview is very meaningful. Actually, he a critic who is critically critical. But this interview will definitely help the students of English Literature and the Critics to evaluate his attempts. I am not sure whether his notion about the rise of English is absolutely acceptable or not; even though, he has tried to give us a total glimpse of the rise of English. He might have not noticed the influence of the Anglo-Saxon literature. the English have learnt the meaning of English and the cause of the rise of English before him. I warmly welcome this judicious scholar for this video because it has simplified his notion of English literature.
Great interview. The part at the end absolutely rings true for me concerning my own experience with my English and Creative Writing degree at Lancaster. Cohesion and community.
Hi Lancaster ELCW! I’m impressed by the quality of your content. A little push is all it takes to elevate this channel, and I can help. My info is available right here on this channel I'm using to comment.
Language is an inadequate tool, no one can articulate the deepest truth. Pretty basic, I’d have thought, and we keep trying.
This is a great lecture that I have never had before.
The text resonates with people. People do not resonate.
Someone fix those books behind him. They're gonna crush him.
how stupid you wokes can be! The elegancy and the "civilization" of Mansfield park is built not on the exploitation of African slaves but on the exploitaion of ANY slaves (a lot of Irish, for example) and all of the low class people in England as well. Do you think that the poor arendator, servants, manufacture workers were in the better situation than the African slaves? Think again! Moreover, the elegancy and "civilization" of all of the modern upper class families - all those Windsors, Kennedys, Zukerbergs and Rokefellers - it is also built on the hienous exploitation of lower classes. So to be British and sit here crying about poor African slaves in 18th century is a bit crazy. Don´t you want to cry about British seniors who are dying in their cold houses every winter? Don´t you want to cry about Palestinian kids killed every day because of Anglo-Saxon elites´dirty games? No, you want to be (or rather look) mortified by the 18th century´s slavery. And only if it were the black people who were slaves :)) You guys are clowns :)
going to be interesting
Always insightfully beautiful words pouring out from a rare mind
Please Dr I need more lectures
3:40 Hmmm. 1984.

You don't have a real Literary Theory.
Gosh, I love this dude-he is a flaming hoot-his humor belies his rather stuffy,( Oxbridge(?) accent-I'm a financial analyst myself, but I would have enjoyed studying with this cat.-where ordinarily I wouldn't go within spitting distance of any Humanities faculty.
Thanks for sharing
uk won the war lost its teeth
It'd have been a perfect lesson if the audio was a lil' better😮
A lovely talk, thank you.
I went to George VI’s lying in state, queuing in silence in a blizzard from the opposite side of the Thames, for several hours. I too then was a protestant Christian, nominally. In the Hall it is true people walked past in silence, but in the 1950’s English people anyway were very private about their feelings, so one did not SEE an otward show of reverence. Unlike today even the long queue was silent. His early death had been a great shock, and he was much loved. I was 19 then. +
It seems that Freud believed that if his work was to have historical (significance) longevity, Jung would be his best bet - Jung was Arian.
Adjusting listening speed helps with these slow speakers.
what always strikes me is the non recognised beauty of Irish songs ,a line from" She mived through the fair" where a person is described as "one had a sorrow ,that never was said " We do not know this sorrow yet it haunts us . terry eagleton is the best slainte from Belfast
I did try try to understand why, as only a fool excludes without enquiry, but like so much in the humanities today, it just felt like much ado about nothing.
Thank you ❤
Am I watching Terry Eagleton now?
I cannot believe any word of the prologue or tale was a cunning strategy to rail against women. It is the exact antithesis. No doubt, I'm a neophyte in this world, but all of the Canterbury Tales strikes me as a full-scale attack against all variety of false constructs of that age, the prior age, and the age to come. Chaucer was the archetype of Thomas Paine. The character of Alisoun is so potent, at least to my unlearned eyes, it is almost impossible to believe it is anywhere close to 650 years old.
Wonderful! Thank you, Professor Ruston.
Although I'm not a big literary theory person, I've always enjoyed Eagleton's playful wit and this did not disappoint.
Bravo. Very interesting. Thank you.
Let us not forget the critical analysis of the late Professor Edward Said about this much talked Third-rate book wholly and solely based on slave labour's in the Caribbean.
Hello, I am Rossy from Indonesia. your youtube is very interesting and useful. thanks
Nice
Somebody should write a thesis and/or book about Terry's years at Lancaster University, all the way through from October 2008 to next year's Lancaster event for his 80th birthday celebrations. That thirteen years is quite a stint - longer than he'd been anywhere else except Oxford. So, aspirant PhD researchers, there's a ready-made topic for you!
Agree or disagree with him, Eagleton is a Genius
❤
thank you for this wonderful analysis and substantive thoughts. Mansfield Park is the last novel I've read from Miss Austen and despite the debate, I thoroughly enjoyed it more than I had anticipated. This is very mind-opening.
Knock off the ad hominem criticism and twisted Biblical interpretation. BTW, Philip Larkin will survive well after you’ve been forgotten!

This is WASP worship. Where are discussions about the character rectorships, colonialism, masculinities, diapiric traditions, treatment of women, other themes? The focus really should be on the men, Caribbean culture. You spend way to much time on the bible and Elliot. I would not want to take your class if this is the the kind of tone you set. Sorry.
She stated at the beginning that it's an introduction to the novel :)
"Certain literary works go to work on language in ways that generate the illusion of sensuous specificity." It's not an illusion. Everything is specific, even particular iterations of generic terms.
the function of humour is grossly misunderstood ,i once read a piece about darkhumour in an emergency setting ,it was not directed at the patients but at the medical hierarchy .Also when i worked here in belfast ,new staff members were asked to ring up the mortuary and complain about the noise .My Co Sligo gave me a nice binary "sure if you didnt laugh youd cry "
What on earth are the constant beeping sounds interfering with listening to this?

Love this. Thank you for these answers!
Thank you. Very helpful analysis and a good introduction of the poet.
