Hi, your latest video just came up in my suggested and I thought Id show my appreciation for your amazing videos. Last year I did my GCSE's, in my latest mock I got a low D and then after watching your English Literature videos on OMAM etc I got an A* in paper one and an A in the second paper just as a result of including everything you taught me. Many thanks and I hope your channel continues to grow.
jayne Alexander-Closs woww
jayne Alexander-Closs Thanks for letting me know, and for working at it so hard. I always tell students A is doable with hard work, but only some believe me!
under 24 hours until my english lit exam. Now is probably a good time to start revising
thank you for these, they're super interesting!
'still time between now and the exam to memorise the quotations' - mate my exam is in 12 hours why am i only just finding this now!!!
Thanks for this video. I don't do this story for my gcse but it's very intriguing and I saw the animatedly movie when I was a child so this is in my mind for good
I have a Jekyll and Hyde mock tomorrow, couldn't have uploaded this at a better time haha!
Thank you for this!!!
orangein acup You are welcome
This is really helpful! Thanks a lot
OMG THANK YOU!
Thank you for this video :)
Jekyll sounds like Jackal … which is mentioned more than 14 times in the Bible, as a symbol of loneliness, abandonment and desolation… (Bible translation) Jeremiah 51:37 Babylon shall become heaps, a dwelling place for jackals, an astonishment, and a HISSING, without inhabitant. A Jackal is an animal which mirrors animalistic Hyde who ‘snarls’ and at some point takes a ‘hissing intake of breath’. If Hyde is Jekyll in the flesh … then perhaps Hyde is Jekyll’s hide (like animal skin).
..
Jackal sounds like Jack … Jack the Ripper … I still believe these are just coincidences as they are a bit far fetched, but it is fun to imagine!
Yes, the Jackal interpretation just about gets there. Jack the Ripper, however, came after the novel.
Your videos are incredibly useful! Do you mind if I use this link for a webquest I'm designing for my teacher training college?
Victoria M No, I am flattered! Thanks for the link.
What would you suggest I learn for Jane Eyre and Brontë purpose in Jane Eyre in order to get the highest grades? Also I recently got an a* in an inspector calls due to your amazing videos! Thank you!
Could you please direct me to a video where you explode and analyse these quotes. Thanks would be much appreciated.
Thank you!!!
thanks sir!
I'm starting to panic with the exams coming up for Romeo + Juliet and Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde! I've barely done any work but i'm trying my hardest do you have any specific advice?
Yes, get an exam question. Watch 30 minutes of video. Then write a 30 to 45 minute exam answer. In this way, you will retain what you have learned, and also applied it to specific questions, so you will know exactly how to use it in the exam!
Hey for English lit paper, is there a possibility that the same/similar question from the specimen can come up in the real exam?
Nathaneal Afanu yes
Mr Salles Teaches English but how likely/realistic is it though
Mr Salles Teaches English because surely it would be a scam to just ask the same question as what is that even testing?
Not really, it is only a scam if you know it is going to come up. If they rule out the 4 questions that have appeared in the specimen papers, teachers would quickly work out the 2 or 3 possibilities that are left, and that would also be a scam! As it is, all of them could come up
Sir, can I link Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde to Sigmund Freud's theory of id, ego and superego
Yes, this is a video I need to make. A great idea.
was this video made?
thanks for this video. could u do the same for Macbeth please
S S Yes, I must indeed
Any way you could do this before the current Gcse's? Love your videos they have been so helpful. Thanks
Sir what does psyche mean?
What about the Carew murder case?
That is another one of Hyde's crimes which is described by Stevenson
what relevance does that hold?
Look out for my video on homosexuality in Jekyll and Hyde - I'll go through its relevance then! Should be out in about a week.
Mr Salles Teaches English ok thanks!
are penny dreadfuls the same as shilling shockers?
No, a shilling shocker was 11 times the price! But, similar content and style, so yes ish.
@@MrSallesTeachesEnglish oh ok thanks sir :)
How can I improve my writing skills eg using big words and structuring my answer
Ty
Start your essay with a thesis. Prove it using 8 paragraphs, each with embedded quotations. Steal vocabulary from my vides. Practise writing.
Mr Salles Teaches English so if I write (in each paragraph) that Stevenson does this to show this, I would be writing about his purpose and consequently get top marks?
hallo mr salles iam in year 9 and I have a very important test coming up for confirming my subjects for gcse the test is on mice and men and I have viewed ur video about crooks please could u tell me a structure method to get my subjects confirmed my English tutor told me to do a point evidence technique explaination and development paragraph but that is only for poems
That structure will work for all the texts you study when you are learning. I have lots of Of Mice and Men videos to help you.
can u do a video about it plz sir ur a legend if u do
Do you not believe that a question on Lanyon could be asked?
What's the purpose of Stevenson 'tapping' into the Victorian psyche?
Dear Sir,
Please may you let me know how to improve on this essay, and also what kind of grade it would get on the AQA spec
How does Shakespeare present Tybalt in Act 1 Scene 1 Lines 58-66 and in two other scenes?
Tybalt is presented as the antagonist to Romeo who frequently aggravates the fighting, by Shakespeare in the play ‘Romeo and Juliet’. Shakespeare uses Tybalt to highlight the contrasts between characters, as he takes any opportunity to use violence to keep the feud between the families alive.
Firstly, throughout this extract Tybalt is portrayed as being angry, and full of hatred. At the beginning of the play in Act 1, Tybalt exclaims ‘What, drawn and talk of peace? I hate the word’ which highlights his reluctance to end the feud. Tybalt represents the underlying violence and vengeful nature of society in Verona, while simultaneously acting as a catalyst of continuing the feud. Shakespeare presents this with his use of iambic pentameter, with the stress focusing on the antithesis of ‘hate’ and ‘peace’, therefore making these words prominent to the audience, and establishing that he must be a significant character in the play, as only the higher social classes use this Petrarchan sonnet form.
Additionally, Tybalt’s violence is presented by Shakespeare with his juxtaposition to the peace keeping Benvolio. While Tybalt uses the metaphor ‘love upon thy death’, Benvolio responds with ‘ I do but keep the peace’ , highlighting their differences , and representing the different attitudes towards conflict. This allows the audience to see Tybalt’s fiery attitude, and his desperation to ignite conflict, whilst engaging the Elizabethan audience as fighting was often a form of entertainment. Also this immediately establishes the opinions of the audience, as the prefix, Ben, in ‘Benvolio’, has connotations with goodness and benevolence, which is the antithesis to Tybalt’s personality.
In addition, Shakespeare presents Tybalt through the play as the foil to all peace making characters, throughout the use of a lexical set. The lexical set of cat imagery, depicting Tybalt as both ‘rat catcher’ and ‘King of Cats’ by Mercutio, not only emphasises the contempt felt by the Montagues towards Tybalt, but also the extent they are antagonising him , suggesting that he is notorious for engaging in fights. Also the semantic field of ‘cats’ highlights that Tybalt is perhaps an experienced fighter, as cats are proverbially said to have nine lives, yet this is ironic as Tybalt is subsequently slain by Romeo. Shakespeare uses Tybalt as a device to represent the violence tearing apart Verona, and suggesting that nothing good would come out of this ‘ancient grudge’, and idea introduced in the prologue.
Furthermore, Shakespeare’s use of Tybalt heightens the impact of the climax, with after the moment of peripeteia, Tybalt seeming as if he regrets his actions. Tybalt, who is describes through the epithet ‘fiery Tybalt’, refers to Romeo as ‘wretched boy’. This is a device used by Shakespeare to emphasise the tragedy of Tybalt’s death, and to represent the disastrous effect a feud like this could have on society.
Ultimately, Shakespeare presents Tybalt as an angry man who wishes for Verona to remain divided, by aggravating the feud. Shakespeare enables the audience to reflect, through Tybalt, on the insignificance of fighting, and instead promoting peace.
Thanks
