- Like many of Blake's poems, the Chimney Sweeper has two versions. Innocent and Experienced. Blake contrasts childhood and exploitation in the backdrop of the Industrial Revolution to convey his message of social injustice and religious hypocrisy. In doing so, he challenges the conventional notions of joy, dreams, church, and parenthood.
Watch this video till the end to know the harsh reality of child labor in 18th-century England and Blake's take on it.

A teacher is a person who surrounds her students with inspiration to learn again every day and your lecture just did a magic in the same way.Thank you madam❤
Thank you madam ❤ .. just for you my vision is getting versatile.. Now I am able to put my views in the topics..
I think in the line " Could scarcely cry ' weep ! weep ! weep ! weep! '
The word ' weep ' is a pun suggesting dual meaning. The most obvious meaning is that the young chimney sweeps are calling their customers to hire them to clean their chimney and on the other hand, it is their mournful and melancholic weep which is revealing the horrors and police brutality of the child labour and the lives of chimney sweeps.
@@payeltapadar wonderfully explained. Great
Greatly explained
Thank you...👍👍
The Chimney Sweeper - I provides with some respite towards the end as the children are drawn towards some sort of redemption.
But the second version obliterates the whole concept of salvation. It poses more questions than answers.The saviour God remains absolutely helpless.
Let's appreciate the genius in William Blake ,who picturised the 'ray of hope'(Part I) and darkness of child labour(Part II) in a realistic way. Truth can be bitter, sometimes.
In an ideal world, millions of people are subscribers and listen attentively to every word that's being said by this brilliant teacher. Thank you so much for your videos, ma'am. Love and respect from Punjab.
One sincere student= 1 million subscribers.
So technically I already own thousands of golden play buttons 😀
@@NibblePop Well said, ma'am. I have nothing but respect and love for you. Keep up the good work. Best wishes, ma'am.

Nobody can interpret like you, no teacher can reflect into poetry like you do. How did you learn these during your student days? And How did you acquire this techniques of teaching! I wonder! Thank you mam❤ I am forever grateful.
Whatever I have learnt I have done so from my teachers.
Your words are result of their blessings.
God bless you dear
hello mam! i watch your videos to analyse the poems and this help me a lot in understanding the actual meaning of the poem... so can you please make video on these poems so that i can also get help in analysing these....
Pablo Neruda- the way Spain was
Derek Walcott- names
Goats and monkeys
Mamang Dai- Small Towns and The River
The Voice of the Mountain
Ma'am can you upload a video on plautus' pot of gold
Ma'am in 14.06 you made a point that "if they are obedient they would not want to be happy" . Ma'am can you please elaborate.
Obedient means a certain acceptance of sad reality without hope of change
@@NibblePop thank you ma'am ❤️
Ma'am suddenly a question is bothering me a lot that though Blake's poems, 'The Lamb', 'The Tyger' and The 'Chimney Sweepers' belong to the lyric genre but they also contain the characteristics of Dramatic monologue -
i) They've silent listeners like Lamb, contemporary Christian churches, and Tom Dacre respectively.
ii) All of them start in an extreme situation.
iii) The narrator is not associated with the poet.
Then can I represent them as dramatic monologues too?
They have elements of DM but in case of dramatic monologue a certain extra thing is needed. It has to be a dramatic moment captured when a certain change or revelation is found. Otherwise it is just poetic monologue.
❤
Ma'am in Songs of innocence, the children had a optimistic view for a better future or better ending, can that be interpreted as the hope of common people when French Revolution was going on?
Definitely. Well said.
Mam, do you teach for the NET exam?
Mam , please make a series on Virginia Woolf's Mrs Dalloway. The text is very difficult to go through...please ..
Thanks ma'am...
Ma'am I've a doubt related to Paradise Lost that in which shape Satan tempts Eve in her dream?
As an angel
