“Was not their mistake once more bred of the life of slavery that they had been living?—a life which was always looking upon everything, except mankind, animate and inanimate—‘nature,’ as people used to call it—as one thing, and mankind as another, it was natural to people thinking in this way, that they should try to make ‘nature’ their slave, since they thought ‘nature’ was something outside them” — William Morris

How to Read Any Poem, Anywhere 17: Advanced Poetics (MP3)



A great class I thought. Always good when it's Wordsworth and Shelley.

I'm really enjoying myself and learning things with these audio-only series of classes that your posting. Over the past year-and-a-half of me following your blog I've become fully aware of my passion for the analysis of culture. I've even decided, for various reasons, to drop everything I'm doing to finally go study it for real, in a university, taking a big risk in the current economic and political climate.

Didn't mean to make my comment this heavy. Actually just wanted to mention that the media player for this class isn't showing up in the post.
Is that just on my end?

Big fan of your work, so thanks at least.

(Sorry for any weird sentences that the dutch part of my language brain may have come up with)
