You’re more than welcome, thank you so much for taking the time to comment! Remember, just take it slowly, one at a time, and you’re still rewarded even if they’re not 100% accurate
Extremely useful video! I guess the icing on the cake would be a final exam walkthrough or exemplar essay on the Great Gatsby/love poetry? You definitely earned a subscriber!
Brilliant! If I can offer one other piece of advice is to not let context dominate the piece, just engage with the question presented and pick your specific points rather than try and shoehorn in just the parts you understand. Very best of luck 👍
Hii do you have any quotes that have something to do with the American dream in the great gatsby? Techniques along with the quotes would be useful too! I also shared your channel to my English class group chat :D
@@GuigLit hi thank you so much me and my class have the American dream exam next Monday so it would be very helpful if you could do it sometime this week! Thank you I appreciate it
@@GuigLit oh cool thanks for the shoutout :) btw if you are able to please can you please comment some great gatsby quotes that link to the American dream along with their language techniques or any context that is relevant. Just because I’m literally revising right now and I’m stressing out 😂
You’re welcome, I’ll put it up this weekend so watch out for it! Any questions you or your class have too just send them as a comment and I’ll answer every one of them - it’s the GuigLit Guarantee!
So in terms of moral decadence it’s found more in the actions than any specific incident - Tom’s affair with Myrtle, for example - however, what’s interesting is perhaps the one major quote in Chapter Nine where Nick calls the Carraways ‘They were careless people, Tom and Daisy- they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made.’ This is the best quote I would say that sums up the entire sense of moral decadence.
Hi guiglit can you please help me identify the technique in this quote from Nick. “gatsby found what a grotesque thing a rose is”. Is there a technique?
Hi! Great question. So immediately you have what’s called juxtaposition here, where two seemingly contrasting concepts in ‘grotesque’ and ‘rose’ are connected to form one meaning. That would be the technique that I would point out from that quote.
@@GuigLit oh I didn’t know juxtaposition was technique I just thought it was another fancy word for contrast aha, thanks for telling me I can always count on you more than my literal teacher😭🙏🏼
Haha you’re welcome! Ostensibly it is, juxtaposition is the technique of applying contrast so you’re well in the right to use that 👍 thank you so much for your kind words and support!
‘He had thrown himself into it with a creative passion, adding to it all the time, decking it out with every bright feather that drifted his way. No amount of fire or freshness can challenge what a man will store up in his ghostly heart’
Sure thing! I will do some research just to make sure I get everything right. Do you know what exam board you do? This will help me tailor the video to be more specific. Thank you for your support!
You’re welcome. I work full time as a teacher so it will take 1-2 weeks as I do this in evenings and weekends, I just want to be honest with you in advance 😊 thank you once again.
Hi there, I’m more than happy to try, the only problem is there’s lots of different versions of the book. If you know the particular version that you have I can try to do this. Thank you for the suggestion!
what happened to part 2? this video was actually quite useful :(
Thanks GuigLit, this is going to really help with my exam :). Now to just memorise the quotes...

Brilliant! If I can offer one other piece of advice is to not let context dominate the piece, just engage with the question presented and pick your specific points rather than try and shoehorn in just the parts you understand. Very best of luck 👍
@@GuigLit Ah, duly noted. I'll make sure to keep that in mind. Thanks a lot!

Hello 👋
Please I have a question ❓
Could you give me examples that show the moral decadence in The Great Gatsby
Hi! Thank you for this excellent question. I will gather my evidence in order to prepare a proper response ?
@@GuigLit Okay I will hang on, Thanks in advance.
So in terms of moral decadence it’s found more in the actions than any specific incident - Tom’s affair with Myrtle, for example - however, what’s interesting is perhaps the one major quote in Chapter Nine where Nick calls the Carraways ‘They were careless people, Tom and Daisy- they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made.’
This is the best quote I would say that sums up the entire sense of moral decadence.
@@GuigLit thanks 👍
My pleasure! Anytime 😊
Hi guiglit can you please help me identify the technique in this quote from Nick. “gatsby found what a grotesque thing a rose is”. Is there a technique?
Hi! Great question. So immediately you have what’s called juxtaposition here, where two seemingly contrasting concepts in ‘grotesque’ and ‘rose’ are connected to form one meaning. That would be the technique that I would point out from that quote.

Hi! Do you have any quotes that are about the happiness of Gatsby about money? Thank you so much!
Hi Joshua! Of course, one I like a lot is when Gatsby remarks how daisy’s voice of ‘full of money’.
Do you have quote to show gatsby as unable to move on from daisy or show he is very in love with her
‘He had thrown himself into it with a creative passion, adding to it all the time, decking it out with every bright feather that drifted his way. No amount of fire or freshness can challenge what a man will store up in his ghostly heart’
I would recommend hewing the quote down a bit before using but you have it all there 👍 best of luck!
i have an exam in twelve hours
Absolute best of luck!! 👍
could you please make a video on how to write an A level grade A english lit essay
Sure thing! I will do some research just to make sure I get everything right. Do you know what exam board you do? This will help me tailor the video to be more specific. Thank you for your support!
@@GuigLit AQA, Thanks so much.
You’re welcome. I work full time as a teacher so it will take 1-2 weeks as I do this in evenings and weekends, I just want to be honest with you in advance 😊 thank you once again.
@@GuigLit Hello, i fully understand. You are already doing a massive job and on TH-cam as well for free.
If you could site the page number with the quotes that would be helpful as well.
Hi there, I’m more than happy to try, the only problem is there’s lots of different versions of the book. If you know the particular version that you have I can try to do this. Thank you for the suggestion!
@@GuigLit maybe if you read out the paragraph it's in it would be easier to find
Thank you for the idea, it’s really appreciated. I’ll absolutely factor this in for future videos, whatever helps to make the ideas clearer 😊
I have exam in two hours
Good luck!
