I'm making these videos to see if I can get more people to read stuff that's really worth reading but gets passed up a lot! Let's hope it works.

Saving my English homework with this one
It seems nowadays that poetry is not so well appreciated anymore. This is nicely done, but it's a pity only some 600 views in 4 years.
At first I thought it was a parody until I read the backstory
Thanks ❤
this was great you did an awesome job!
Just want to say your voice is beautiful and soothing. I watched your another one about Montaigne which I love it very much. How often do you make a post, and what reason and any framework in your mind to choose a topic? Thanks for the great work!

The quality of one's speaking voice is so important when listening to the recital of a poem..There are occasions one can be disengaged because of the voice's personality..You have a perfectly appealing voice that only enhances this poem..Soft yet firm with conviction and mellifluous.
Thanks for sharing this. I really am only just getting into Montaigne but I really resonate with what little I've heard of him and I am hungry for more.
Montaigne is my spirit philosopher
Waoo
Thank you 💕
Interesting man I definitely relate to him in a lot of ways Also I don’t know why but you look like Ronaldo 😂
Two different eggs !
It was quite helpful... Thanks for sharing...
Well done
Thanks for your soft approach to bring him to life... I needed to hear this message today. My mind is worried about not having a job, and it is hard to just BE. Thanks
great video, greetings from Peru
You got a nice voice !!
Thank you very much for this analysis. it is very helpful before the exam session <3
Nice explanation. Thank you 😃
This is very clarifying. Thanks a lot!
Absolutely beautiful. You indeed unfolded the complete essence of the poem. Very useful.
Hi Thanks for your good work! I am wondering how and why you choose the poem or book to talk about here. Are they just randomly chose based on personal taste? As an audience, I would like to know author by author in depth. For example, when you talk about Mondaigne, it will be great if you talk about him for 3 or 4 sections, discuss his essay in more details. It's just my personal opinion. Good luck and thanks again!
Good job! Thank you very much for introducing Montaigne ! He's a real noble and gentlemen. Your voice and citations are great. I've been reading Sarah Bakewell's book, A life of Montaigne. Enjoy it and learn a lot of insights. Please continue to introduce good books and authors. Thanks again!
A very enjoyable video. Thank you.
it was wonderful
Loved the explanation, thankyou for the effort!
Such an informative reading of the poem, thanks a lot for your time and explanation!
I'm glad you found it helpful!
Awesome video, very thoughtful. Thank you for posting!
Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed it.
THANK YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Very interesting. Thanks for taking the time to make a video!
Thanks for watching!
Man, you’ve done a wonderful job. Thank you a lot!
Thanks!
enjoyed this - just started reading the Cohen edition of the Montaigne's essays, and finding some a bit hard to get through. Any tips on the best ones to read? (will definitely read 'on experience' next!)
Thanks! Some of my favorites are "On friendship," "On experience," and "On some verses of Virgil." Take it slow! Montaigne is worth spending time with.
Then edited by someone and there were ancient essays burnt down by genghis Kahn, there's Anselm.. aquinas... I threw them out, his essays. Then they stopped writing philosophy.
