Mark Steel`s lectures are intelligent , funny and brilliant I adore the way he makes it inetresting He could narrate the London Phonebook and it would grip me-
@Germanicus79 I agree with you, though you should keep in mind poetry would be nowhere if the only thing to do was master the art of mimesis. A poet should first of all set his/her own voice, and then if he/she is to become a great poet, they must pursue that voice and vision regardless of means, ends, or morals.
"colonizator"...? I'm not sure what a "colonizator" is supposed to be but they sound AWESOME Oh, and just to point out... The Norse got to the America's 500 years before Columbus.
I've written several poems. I urge you to go to amazon and search Small Town Bachelor Expanded Version. It is a book I wrote, deep, philosophical but also funny. It is a combination of prose and verse, mostly prose. I like Byron and all the Romantics. I am just saying they are a bit overrated. Shakespeare's sonnets are 100 times greater then the Romantics. Keats is the best of the Romantics.
I've been studying the English Romantics. I think they are all overrated except for John Keats. Keats' Ode to a Nightingale and Ode to a Grecian Urn are epic, virtuoso. There are a few cantos of Don Juan of Byron that I like. However, most are rubbish, but for Keats. Still, their lives are interesting.
Ottomans the killers ... There was no Empire they genocided Armenian ... They invaded and Killed and Took Aya sofia... Left Arabs 500 years behind... A Muslim Poet Assad Rustom wrote...When Jamal Pasha Al-Saffah (the Butcher) hanged his literate friends in Lebanon..in May 6, 1916... "The Sons of Turks you are never Muslims"
This is glossy tripe as history. As if before the French revolution you couldn't achieve anything with talent alone. Hasn't he heard of Thomas Cromwell or Cardinal Wolsey? This was almost 300 years before the French Revolution.

Like all Mark Steel`s lectures funny and brilliant. I particular liked the line said in a matter of fact way
"He went to cambridge with his bear"
2:09
I had to replay it because I could have sworn he said “had to have a f!cktion” in reality he said “function” but still!!!
What is that tune at 9:00? I think it is the Stooges. but I'm not sure.
No Fun by The Stooges :)
One poem is enough to say he was best ...
Can you write poems ...
Write one and feel what he felt...

I only want to know one single thing: if both Westminster and St. Paul's refused him burial, because of his 'scandalous' life, where is he buried?
lol "buggery"
Ottomans the killers ...
There was no Empire they genocided Armenian ...
They invaded and Killed and Took Aya sofia...
Left Arabs 500 years behind...
A Muslim Poet Assad Rustom wrote...When Jamal Pasha Al-Saffah (the Butcher) hanged his literate friends in Lebanon..in May 6, 1916...
"The Sons of Turks you are never Muslims"
Time to scrap the licence.
Does seem to be a bit of a whitewash - why's he being portrayed as a fop and not the cold cruel bastard we know and love?
they need morgan freeman to narrate this... he makes everything more entertaining
Usual anti British middle-class left wing cringed.

He did a lecture on Oliver Cromwell and on Issac Newton
