Hello French Whisperer. What can you tell me of the Forest Sauvage and why it is considered a place where magic resides? The park with the wind going through its trees in Antonioni's film Blow Up evoked for me the quality of mystery that I associate with The Forrest Sauvage. Thank You!
@@octopusmime Me too, but which vrsn though? There are so many good translations out there. I like Larry Benson, but I guess a lot of folk would want Tolkien's vrsn.
When I got into ASMR originally, it was about experiencing the 'tingle'. Which wore off after a couple of months. I got frustrated with all the silly role plays, clucks, clicks, scratches (and those disturbing ear-cleaning/licking videos!) I started searching for alternatives and came across people such as yourself who are actually incredibly interesting. Whether history, physics, maths, astronomy or even cookery, there are so many out there who clearly put much thought and effort into providing incredibly engaging, interesting yet relaxing subjects for us all to enjoy. Thank you so much!
This is my most replayed of your videos. To be honest, I have never made it to the end while awake. I leave my brain and dreams in your talented hands and voice. Thank you for giving us such a trusted and enlightening place to gather.
King Arthur?! It's like my birthday came early! You spoil us dearly, thank you for your amazing hard work! And you do it in three languages as well; as an American that has trouble with one, I am unbelievably impressed! Thank you for sharing your passions with us.
Jack Whyte's A Dream of Eagles series is one of my favorite retellings of the legend of Arthur because it is told from a realist point of view. Every part showing how this legend could have been reality. From Excalibur being nothing more than the discovery of better metal working to Morgana LaFaye being both magical and scary because she was an independent blind woman. To Arthur's castle being nothing more than the well planned estate of a retired Roman general. Peace the result of a treaty forged through marriage between this retired general and the Saxon leader. Merlin being nothing more than Arthur's tutor...literacy and knowledge itself was magical.
I like “The Mists Of Avalon.” Morgana LaFaye is Arthur’s half sister by Gorlois and she isn’t evil; although Arthur does end up thinking she tricked him, she was still trying to do the right thing. 😏
I like Mary Stewart's Arthurian books: "The Crystal Cave," "The Hollow Hills," "The Last Enchantment," and "The Wicked Day". I really got the feeling of a different time, and a different set of assumptions as to how the universe works. JAMES
I never really knew or understood the historical context that the story of King Arthur fit into! I was already familiar with the characters and variations, but knowing about the reality of the receding roman empire and the subsequent chaos really adds a lot of richness to the idea of this legend. I love it!
Magnifique. What a treat to find this tonight - I shall enjoy falling asleep to it very shortly. I promise I'll try to listen to it properly sometime soon, though...!
I’ve said it on at least two recent videos, but I am absolutely thrilled you are back. Best channel on TH-cam, and it’s not close. I would love to see glaciers on one of your lists to vote on sometime, but you could talk about the history of dryer lint and I would listen...
To all non-french viewers : If you love this topic and are learning French, I highly recommend you the serie Kaamelott. It is truly one of the best French show ever ! Dialogs may be hard to understand if you are a beginner, but I guarantee you they are worth it ! But don't worry, you can always get what happens by context.
Yes! I learned French from this series when I arrived in the French Pyrenees. "Ouias, c'est pas faux" saw me safely through my first few months and somehow landed me my first job, followed shortly by "Le gras c'est la vie", "CUILLÈRE" and "Pas changer assiette pour fromage", which secured me a place in society as the quirky immigrant of the village 😀
Love your content, SOOO much. You know what could be delightful? A history of gardens or agriculture. Or a diatribe on growing different kinds of fruits and vegetables, with some nice asmr from soil and seeds and watering cans!!!
You are my favorite ASMR content creator. I have learned so much from your channel and I love the simple beauty each video has. The ambiance and your voice combined with educational topics is perfect for me. Thank you for your hard work!!!
the images and scenery you spend time putting together really add a great touch, it makes me want to watch the videos rather than just listen to them, So thanks again for this great video. Also, a video on houses/rooms or bedrooms/beds would be interesting to see including the innovations and who made them
The involvement the Romans had in Wales is really fascinating. I live 5 minutes away from an old Roman fort where they're still discovering coins and oven markings even to this day.
I fell in love with your voice from the calm ad. I told my daughter about you because she has the app. I am soo happy to have found you on TH-cam! J'adore ta voix et le contenu dont tu parles. 2 de mes choses préférées. Merci.
Gonna sit back, kick my feet up and play Crash Team Racing while listening to this. King Arthur is certainly a topic I was hoping would have a video when you mentioned your list in the "Makings of" video. Now I'm hoping for a video on Robin Hood, or Brother's Grimm Tales. Keep up the fantastic work, my good sir.
I've watched this so many times and never made it awake to learn about the wall. I'm listening now during the day to actually learn and was shocked I never made it past 9 minutes. 😅
ok when do we get to the part he fights gilgamesh , diarmuid , cu chalain , medusa, sasaki kojiro, hassan i sabbah, heracles, alexander the great, his best knight lancelot, gilles de rais, and the counter gaurdian?
Excellently written, researched and presented. I very much appreciate this work. In a way, I find the ASMR label to be limiting. These presentations are academically strong and compelling for other reasons.
I wonder if Alfred the Great was the actual role model for Arthur. As a Saxon King of Wessex he represented the last force fighting an army of Danish vikings that had raided, invaded and conquered about 70% of England, and he succesfully stopped them in 878 AD. The unification of England under a Saxon king and complete repulsion of the Danish invaders was achieved by his heirs in 954. But kings of the newly kingdom of Denmark managed to conquer England again, and this time completely, ruling it from 1016 to 1042. The book History of Britain was published in 1136, several decades after the Normans established their dynasty (and their lineage, although diluted, still runs in the monarchs of Great Britain). Maybe this book was fuelled by the fantasy or wish that all foreign (=non-Celtic) rulers would perish, be it Angles, Saxons, Juts, Danish vikings or Normans. But no Celtic dynasty would ever rule over England. Actually a Celtic king of England sounds much like a Welsh or Cornish fantasy, because people in Wales and Cornwall had kept stronger ties to their Celtic heritage and experienced few to none immigration by non-Celts. (At the same time, the Scottish and Irish ruled themselves, but not as unified states). Historically though there was probably no unified rule over England by a Celtic king or anyone else between the Roman's departure in the 400s and the Anglosaxon reign by 954. People from the British islands including the English clearly trace back to the Celts genetically. The Anglosaxons main heritage is the Germanic language of English - they contributed little to the gene pool of England but much to its history.
Oh damn! I'm reading Giles Kristian's Lancelot rn, and watched Guy Ritchie's King Arthur movie today. How did you know? 😄 Your videos are so relaxing, I love them! My only problem is I'm TOO relaxed and fall asleep too quickly 😁😁

Thank You!
Looks up warhammer fantasy Brettonnia I think you really enjoy it whisperer
As a Welshman the story of Arthur is one of the most important stories of our people, thank you for sharing it
even though he did get some things wrong (i.e what the red and white dragons symbolize)
You should do the legends of Beowulf, Robin Hood, and Sir Gawain and the Green Knight.
Oh yes please.
yes! i’d love for him to read gawain. it’s not too long. it would be awesome.

You returning to youtube with somehow even better videos than before is one of the few good things in the world these days.
Such a great topic to release at a time when Britain has fallen into chaos once more.
such chaos !
I hope you will be at least spared by furter invasions by Angles, Saxons, Juts, Danish vikings or Normans 👋🏿
i just found your channel and i just need to say that your content and dedication is AMAZING and i am very happy and grateful for your videos

Bonjour encore merci d'être revenu ! J'espère tant que vous fassiez cette vidéo en français 🤞

I'd strongly recommend the book "The Once and Future King" by T.H. White for those who haven't read it. Quite possibly the best book I've ever read.

As a Saxon King of Wessex he represented the last force fighting an army of Danish vikings that had raided, invaded and conquered about 70% of England, and he succesfully stopped them in 878 AD.
