- Mary Travers graduated from Tufts in 2018 and studied Art History and French. She is curious about understanding history through the stories of individual interactions- both between objects and people. Mary also played on the varsity field hockey team and was the co-president of the Protestant Student Association. Mary is a senior at Tufts University who's majoring in Art History. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx
Well I definitely learned few things:
1. Title is not very applicable.
2. Our perception of a ted talk is the STEPS the speaker suggests.
3. Her research actually suggests me that although I hate Maths if I keep looking at it daily, it might become my best subject.
4. She is a good observer.
Now, Why would you want to spend 3 years on a book without literally understanding it's text? Observation and your understanding can only elevate the actual literature of the book.
I'm at the 26 second mark and I saved alot of time by reading these comments. Thanks guys!
I wasted 3.40 mins, ohh god
@@Yuvarajr007 for whats its worth, you know how to read and you know how to determine if a video is worth watching by reading the comments
I don't write many comments but this deserved one. Whoever wrote the title for this Ted talks: shame on you. This is akin to click bait. I come to Ted talks to attempt to learn something, not for a moth radio storytime about how someone appreciates a book. Be better than other sensationalized RUclips video titles that have to resort to click bait for viewership. Sad stuff
travis fields thanks for the heads up.
1 minute in and I already started reading the comments to see if anything interesting was coming up. Thanks for saving me the time.
Thanks
Thank you.
Let me say this. This talk is perfectly inspiring, including its title; the title is not misleading, it is totally a good title, very nice and good title. As far as what the speaker Mary said, the most famous ancient Chinese philosopher Laozi said this, which is essentially what Mary discovered through her study, in his book "Tao Te Ching": "Texts never spread ideas". Mary proves this by demonstrating that reading a book is about neither syntactically nor emotionally understanding the texts, but exploring the world of author by researching their lives, their period in which they lived, what they saw every day, what they did everyday, and eventually what they valued in the end
Thank you!
I appreciate it as a museum talk
For the first time comments helped me in saving my time
Thanks for all the comments saved my time
today i am thanking youtube for comment section
I was confused for 10 mins until I started reading comments
Lollll same
will you talk about the topic?
Lakshay Singhal yeah she kept talking about her (boring) research
Everyone is slamming this video for no reason. She is making a point that books aren’t answers to questions. You draw your own conclusions and meanings from the books you read
mason andrews if it was labeled correctly we wouldn’t be slamming it. The ted talk itself is decent but the title is misleading.
It's a shame the title doesn't reflect the talk better as she may gain more viewers interested in the *actual* content, rather than what the title suggests. There could be a lot of delighted comments, rather than disappointed ones.
title is misleading
Hi guys , I started to learn English around three weeks , so I need friend that he speaks English very well , to talk with me .
If there was another world where the word boring was a complement I would I wouldn't sound so rude.
Cool pants
can you really understand what' s the book says?
and suddenly just just stop I was looking at the sky and it was a feeling as if I just felt like a blimp and there are no words you can really use to describe the other than you feel like a blimp or it it was either a blimp or like a Zeppelin and I could I could look down the length of my body and I just felt like a broken motor inside of a Zeppelin flying around it was the weirdest feeling I have ever felt and I just remember everything started getting like this like a real staticky feeling you know like when you touch a TV and it like electric guitar like a shock to you I just kind of have that feeling all over my body but it was bizarre nothing I've ever experienced before and then turn goes around it was back to me and I'm like alright well this isn't like too bad I guess I'll take another one took another one and everything just I remember I was sitting I was sitting on this chair and I just felt like everything started going up and then in my head I was now sitting on his ceiling and I was getting so confused and everybody in the room that was there just started disappearing going away and then I was just in this dark room by myself and all these weird geometrical shapes and colors I've never even like imagined it started popping of it making all these crazy shapes it was terrified it was scary when it started coming down I started to like really really feel it I felt like I was underwater and that's why I feel like I said that I was a jellyfish because it wasn't like a wavy water type thing and it was just crazy he was nothing like I've ever experienced before
I kept watching hoping she would say something worth watching....
I legit fell asleep
After watching 3 minutes,i had to quit the video.The title is misleading.
in all talks where is topic or if you don't have topic so please don't errant
just skip this video and save some time
You have nothing to say, sadly.
It's called reading! Top to bottom, left to right... a group of words together is called a sentence. Take Tylenol for any headaches... Midol for any cramps.
how does this teach me how to read a book ?
The title to cheat
