Thank you so much for making this video! The detail you put into it really made the poem come to life for me and made the pieces fall into place. Not to mention. my teacher thinks my responses for this poem were very well thought out (haha!).
Very nice. The final line is actually: "To the moaning and the groaning of the bells" But, yes, the mourner has sort of come back to reality by the end of the poem. The morbid character of much of Poe's works is what most people associate with him. But that really misses out on the real depth of Poe. In his prose poem "Eureka" he makes it clear that all the decay and destruction in his works describes only one side of life - the ever changing side. At its basis is the non-changing, Absolute, pure, eternal Unity.
You may be already, but if you're not, you'd make a great teacher. You have a way of breaking down dense English lessons and making them understandable for everyone. That's one reason I'm a subscriber!
Thank you so much! This poem just the moment before I clicked on your video was feeling like the hardest to understand. You made it such easier for me! Thanks again! Subscribed to you!
I mean. . .kinda, but. . . ‘Coined by American poet Edgar Allan Poe, tintinnabulation was borrowed from a number of related terms such as tintinnabulary, meaning bell-ringing or a bell-ringer, and tintinnabularius, meaning a bellman in the statutes of the University of Oxford. Those words come from Latin tinnire, “to ring,” ‘

A request, can you please do an explanation video on Ode to a Skylark by P.B. Shelley?
Or if you have one, just reply back with the link please.🙏🏻
I do a dramatic reading of The Bells by Edgar Allan Poe. Id love to hear your thoughts on it if you get a chance ❤

Never knew tintinabulation came from Poe.
those are called stanzas, not verses
