Thank you for these videos. My professors at school always seem to be determined on making everything sound more complicated than it actually is. We all need this sort of simple explanations.
Employment of New Criticism is not about the uncovering of textual meaning embedded in a text but the deeper understanding of literature in its transcendental aspects. Values are apprehended not through the explication of meaning but through the embodiment of its spirit in a disinterested fashion.
That was helpful, my professor was pregnant so we ( my classmates and I ) didn't get the lessons very well, and it looked so hard to grasp, going to pass an exam tomorrow and yeah that was helpful, Thank you.
Wow, ang video na ito ay talagang nakakatulong sa akin! Matagal na akong interesado sa paksa na ito, at ang iyong paliwanag ay talagang nakatulong sa akin na mas maintindihan ito. Pinapahalagahan ko ang iyong kahusayan at pagkahilig sa paksa na ito. Ako rin ay isang content creator, at nag-eexplore rin ako ng mga katulad na tema sa aking channel. Gusto ko makipag-ugnayan at magpalitan ng mga ideya sa mga taong may parehong interes. Keep up the good work!
Tim, these are fantastic. I had searched high and low for quality set of videos on Lit theory so I could flip my next Honors English unit and focus on discussion and application. You've put together a great set of videos.
+Steven Irwin Thanks! I wanted a simple starting point for my students for the same purpose. I've been pleased at the general reception of the videos. Glad you can use them!
This quick lesson was very helpful to me. I was having a difficult time understanding this subject in my textbook for literature and this made the light bulb go on! Thanks!
The essays your professor asked you to read are really helpful in the deeper understanding of the nuances of New Critical approaches not a mere burdensome requirement. Believe me, you need to expand your horizon on this perspective because this You Tube video constraints the understanding of this critical school of literary criticism.
Thank you, this is my second video so far and it is so much more clear to me than the overview that I got from my teacher that was making my brain short circuit.
I always hear binary opposition. I have a few questions to ask, so that I can fully grasp the whole concept of binary opposition: 1. What is the definition of binary opposition (in Layman's term)? 2. Does binary opposition appear in EVERY literary theory? 3. How does it work on those theories? Thank you in advance, Mr. Nance.
It appears in almost all literary works. These are pairs of related terms that are opposite in meaning. Eg. Positive & negative, hero & villain, male & female
Tension is used to describe ideas in opposition, such as paradoxes, ironies, or other juxtaposed opposites. Look at a story like "The Very Old Man with Enormous Wings" by Marquez. In the story we have a man with wings, which remind us of freedom, but he's trapped in a cage. The man also might be an angel, but he's dirty and gross and his miracles are not helpful. There's a tension between freedom and bondage and another between the angelic and the earthly, making the story complex and interesting.
Wonderful explanation Can you explain expressive realism and post saussaurean and reader power plus the plurality of meaning and construction of meaning and subject in ideology by Catherine belsey (critical practice)
Tim Nance I have been asked to explain the statement; Theory before 'theory'-Liberal humanism, by Peter Barry , taken from his book ' Beginning theory' . Well I have to do that by tomorrow and it is hell confusing.
Great Work Tim! I was wondering if you could help me out by recommending some of them canonical essays, specific chapters by the New Critics like I.A Richards, Cleanth Brooks and others.
I usually use Brooks's "Heresy of Paraphrase". But your best bet is to get the Norton Anthology of Theory and Criticism for a great collection of all the best essays.
Literary critics are the same guys as food/restaurant critics, who can't pay for their food so they turn that inability into a "profession". Unable to write anything themselves, they turn into critics of those who can.
There are several authors who have used New Criticism, but if you’re asking who came up with the idea, you need to look at Cleanth Brooks and John Crowe Ransom. The poet T. S. Eliot heavily influenced its development as well.
@@rojamanigandan8533 He's not as important or foundational as John Crowe Ransom. Ransom actually wrote a book entitled THE NEW CRITICISM from which we get the name of the theory.
Read closely, painstakingly,you make Value judgement, book has depth, look for tension complexity, book oppose other meaning,well unified, look for what makes the tension, what unifies the text as a whole,
He just taught me in 2.5 min what my professor has been "explaining" for the last 3 weeks...I hate college
same
@@Danielachannel Drop out then...
@Robert Sallow shut
Nice, I have to do a presentation on this in under 8 mins.
Damn right, even the professor didn't teach that well ;)
Thank you for these videos. My professors at school always seem to be determined on making everything sound more complicated than it actually is. We all need this sort of simple explanations.
Glad I could help!
Tim, thank you for giving a great presentation! They are concise and NEVER boring! Great work!
Thanks! I'm happy that they've been so well received!
Solid instruction, under 5mins and you really clarified this for me. The apprehension for my upcoming paper has melted away. Thank you!
'Or you can read painstakingly' - Very nicely done! Tim, thanks so much for such a dynamic lesson and highly intoned way of explaining.
Mr Nance you are such a great teacher. thank you !
Employment of New Criticism is not about the uncovering of textual meaning embedded in a text but the deeper understanding of literature in its transcendental aspects. Values are apprehended not through the explication of meaning but through the embodiment of its spirit in a disinterested fashion.
So it is more abstract than the simplified version explained in this video?
if u still here on RUclips, i just want to say that u r great man!, your explaining is super
smooth and easy to understand. keep it up !!! and Thanks
Thank you!
That was helpful, my professor was pregnant so we ( my classmates and I ) didn't get the lessons very well, and it looked so hard to grasp, going to pass an exam tomorrow and yeah that was helpful, Thank you.
Excellent! You make complex topics very clear and simple! Bravo
Thanks for helping me, a sophomore Literature student. Im assigned for an analysis in our group report, and this is well-explained and easy to grasp.
I called my professor a New Critic. He said "Them's fightin' words!"
+Black Lit. Black Hist. Laughed out loud at this comment!

Thank you! I am an MA English Literature student, I didn’t understand anything from my professor but you? You are the best! Thank you!!

i think it's the best short summary of what my teacher said in the lecture
Thank you Mr. Nance for your fun and easy explentations !
IDK anyrhing about new critisizm but the professor is sooo adorable ❤❤❤
thank you so much for these videos I have watched them before every test and exam that I had and it helped so much..
Tim, these are fantastic. I had searched high and low for quality set of videos on Lit theory so I could flip my next Honors English unit and focus on discussion and application. You've put together a great set of videos.
+Steven Irwin Thanks! I wanted a simple starting point for my students for the same purpose. I've been pleased at the general reception of the videos. Glad you can use them!
Thank you. To the point and concise explanation.
I'm a student and we'll be having a discussion about this tomorrow!
This helped me a lot! Thank you Tim! 👏🏻
+Kim Untal You are welcome!
Your professor of Literary Criticism is not deep, your answer might be acceptable..
This quick lesson was very helpful to me. I was having a difficult time understanding this subject in my textbook for literature and this made the light bulb go on! Thanks!
+Kerry Lange Glad it was helpful!
I can't believe I could barely understand my 50 page chapter but I got this in 5 minutes. Thank you!
Can u tell me what kind of courses you have?
The essays your professor asked you to read are really helpful in the deeper understanding of the nuances of New Critical approaches not a mere burdensome requirement. Believe me, you need to expand your horizon on this perspective because this You Tube video constraints the understanding of this critical school of literary criticism.
I've been having a hard time really understanding how to apply New Criticism, but your explanation helped a lot! Thank you!!
+x0brad809 Glad I could help! Let me know if you have any questions!
all literary criticism should be conducted with bow ties. :) and also i love the word "locus."
Very informative please keep producing such insightful videos. Hoping to see some more videos related to research
Thank you, this is my second video so far and it is so much more clear to me than the overview that I got from my teacher that was making my brain short circuit.
very good! clear explanation, good tone
Thank you that was realy helpful 🌸
it's only as deep as you want it to be
Thank you so much for this detailed description about new criticism.
Thanks Tim, great videos
Thank you! You are really a good teacher!
I loved the way you explained
You’re the best RUclipsr!!!! Your videos are so helpful. Thanks so much for sharing 🤗😊
Thanks Tim Nance
Wonderful😍
Thanks for your efforts
Could you explain how this is different to the meaning found in the reader?
Batman v Superman:
-Tension between main characters (check)
-Unity (Martha?!?)
hmm...
+Lyotac Ha, ha! Sadly, true.
would u make a video to explain the genre criticism
plz
Super work! Well explained, both educational AND interesting, easy to understand even for us less brainy guys!
Very good and funny videos bring a great sense of entertainment!
is it the same thing as formalism?
They come from different places, but look very much the same and are often used interchangeably.
+Tim Nance (NanceNotes and Narwhals) thanks

Why didn't I found this when I was studying univ. Thank you for the clear and amazing content. Cheers!
Now I understand, Thank you. Can you do an explanation on Archetypal Criticism?
Your videos are wonderful. Really easy to understand, thanks.
Your class is understandable
「あなたのコンテンツはとても感動的です」、
Excellent explain
what do you understand by tension? do you another video explaining the notion of tension with lot of examples? thank you
Tension is used to describe ideas in opposition, such as paradoxes, ironies, or other juxtaposed opposites. Look at a story like "The Very Old Man with Enormous Wings" by Marquez. In the story we have a man with wings, which remind us of freedom, but he's trapped in a cage. The man also might be an angel, but he's dirty and gross and his miracles are not helpful. There's a tension between freedom and bondage and another between the angelic and the earthly, making the story complex and interesting.
How to apply it on q novel shall I Use those term like close reading,exploring in reading synthetize into a meaning ?
it was very good and to the point. thank you
Wonderful explanation Can you explain expressive realism and post saussaurean and reader power plus the plurality of meaning and construction of meaning and subject in ideology by Catherine belsey (critical practice)
Thank you very much for those useful videos. They are really helpful.
I just wanna say you saved my ass bruh thank you!! I wish all teachers were like you. Hopefully, English exams go well
please do describe about Practical criticism by IA Richards.
I've been reading William Empson and sad to see that no one on RUclips has done a good video on seven types of ambiguity
Thanks man ❤
This was really well explained, thanks.
Could you share the transcript for these videos?
what does this sentence mean?
'Liberal humanism -Theory before 'Theory'.
?
I'd be interested to know the context first.
Tim Nance I have been asked to explain the statement; Theory before 'theory'-Liberal humanism, by Peter Barry , taken from his book ' Beginning theory' . Well I have to do that by tomorrow and it is hell confusing.
Thank you for this video sir.
Great Work Tim! I was wondering if you could help me out by recommending some of them canonical essays, specific chapters by the New Critics like I.A Richards, Cleanth Brooks and others.

No, I don't, but I recommend the Text and Context book by Lynn, which I reference in some of these videos.
Great video.
would you like to recommend me some books about new criticism? Thank you!
Cleanth Brooks is classic.
Thanks ...nice video
Literary critics are the same guys as food/restaurant critics, who can't pay for their food so they turn that inability into a "profession".
Unable to write anything themselves, they turn into critics of those who can.
There are critics who write really good essays
You explained it really well
Thank you. I finally understand.
excellent video
This is so good, thanks. Are there any good books that you can recommend on how to practically do this? (new criticism)
A fun, easy book to use on several types of criticism is Steven Lynn' s Text and Context. I reference it often.
@@Nancenotes Wonderful, thank you.
TY for my final exam.
Then is it the same as practical criticism?
I'm grateful :) Really cool lesson
Where is the video on Frozen?
Did the link go away when RUclips deleted annotations? Here it is: ruclips.net/video/lW4cPsWNwBo/видео.html
@@Nancenotes Thanks, much appreciated.
thank you a lot
Thank you💗💗
May I know who is the author of new criticism sir
There are several authors who have used New Criticism, but if you’re asking who came up with the idea, you need to look at Cleanth Brooks and John Crowe Ransom. The poet T. S. Eliot heavily influenced its development as well.
Sir I have seen that David Daiches is the author of New criticism,is it correct sir
@@rojamanigandan8533 He's not as important or foundational as John Crowe Ransom. Ransom actually wrote a book entitled THE NEW CRITICISM from which we get the name of the theory.
Thank u sir
... and it might make you cry.
Thanks bro!
Thank u so much sir ^^
you are amazing bro. I love your work :))
Thanks!
@@Nancenotes thanks sir for replying amidst all this. I really love your creations ❤️ I learn from you alot best wishes from Rajasthan, India 🌸🌺
but what if not resolving tensions is how the author wishes to end their story?
much obliged
Thanks alot !!
Great stuff. Thanks, man!
Read closely, painstakingly,you make Value judgement, book has depth, look for tension complexity, book oppose other meaning,well unified, look for what makes the tension, what unifies the text as a whole,

Thanks, this helped a lot.
