1
I'm going through a reading phase at the moment.
2
In fact, I'm addicted to reading.
3
I'm annoying my friends and my family because I'm lugging a book around with me wherever we go.
4
Given I do this, you'd be forgiven for thinking that I'm reading about philosophy.
5
I'm scrubbing up on my Plato or my Descartes or my Simone de Beauvoir, but no. You see, I love fantasy.
6
I love created worlds and I love a map at the start of my book.
7
I love dragons, swords, sorcery and sinister forces swirling in the background.
8
For a long time I wouldn't admit that, because people can tend to be quite snobbish about fantasy, they look down on it.
9
Not the prize -winning magical realism kind, but the kind that I like, which involves elves and dragons and dark lords.
10
It's generally agreed that children can enjoy these made -up worlds, they can enjoy talking beasts and adventures, but when you become an adult, you should turn to proper stuff.
11
Mature, respectable, and written in ornate purple prose.
12
status symbol.
13
And if you read a serious book then you must be a serious person, but those who read fantasy Oh no. But this misses the point of what fantasy is about,
14
and the totemic father figure of the genre, J .R .R.
15
Tolkien, has a lot to say on the topic.
16
This snobbery of those who look down on fantasy has a long pedigree
17
and so much so that in 1947 J .R .R.
18
Tolkien felt the need to write a defense of the genre in a short work he called on fairy stories.
19
can happen, but they are always treated with the utmost seriousness by the reader.
20
When you enter fairy, you do not simply enter a world of make -believe, but instead you perform an act of what Tolkien called sub -creation,
21
in which we form a new world within our wider reality.
22
This imaginary world we create will always go beyond the words on a page.
23
This fantasy realm cannot be caught in a net of words, for it is indescribable.
24
Words alone will never be able realized land of magic and for this we need the ability to sub -create.
25
When we sub -create we create a secondary world into which the mind can enter.
26
This world has its own internal logic, laws and systems.
27
We see, feel and live in this world in a way
28
that goes beyond just reading a book or reading the words on a page.
29
We color in the background details,
30
we add sights, smells and wonders and we And this is why movie adaptations can feel so hollow at times,
31
because Hollywood can never hope to match sub -creation.
32
If you've ever read The Lord of the Rings, you'll know what Tolkien is getting at, because Middle Earth is built with such detail and depth that
33
while this sub -creation can take time and it can take effort, you will feel as if you are in that world.
34
It's really hard to describe, because it's not simply inventing mental images or just using your imagination,
35
it's creating an entire world and living alongside everything that's going on.
36
It means watching the drama, of course, but you are inside the drama as well.
37
Thank you.
38
Subcreation is a fascinating philosophical topic in its own right, but it doesn't get us closer to what the value of fantasy is, what is the value of these books.
39
And for this we must turn to another work of Tolkien's, his essay on Beowulf.
40
Beowulf is not a story about a great siege or some courtly intrigue, it's a poem about a man.
41
And that's the entire point, because for Tolkien the story of Beowulf is about one man's struggle against the great tide of misfortune.
42
Beowulf represents the smallest, briefest flickering of a candle in a great expanse of darkness.
43
And this is exactly what it means to be a hero then and forever.
44
Beowulf is a great poem because it speaks of the dualism in all human life.
45
It's about youth and age, success and failure, of glory and doom.
46
Every person will enjoy the warm, joy -filled days of summer as much as the cold, despairing nights of winter.
47
Everything can swing between light and dark.
48
We will eat, drink and be merry, but tomorrow we shall die.
49
The brilliance of Beowulf and fantasy generally is that the monsters or the villains that they provide, the orcs, the monsters, the dragons, the cruel emperors, the dark wizards,
50
is that while of course they are imaginary, they are also empty vessels into which we can each pour our own nemeses, be that real life or more conceptual.
51
limits of historical periods however important.
52
There is something about great fantasy that emboldens the spirits and it gives a kind of fire to the fight.
53
It's found not only in the words and the plots and the adventure but it's in its atemporality.
54
It tells us that there is something universal to the human condition that ought to be celebrated, sought out and cherished.
55
It's something
56
that is as true for Anglo -Saxons in their snowy mead
57
halls as it is for office drones changing their login passwords with a huff.
58
It says that no matter what monsters we face, we shall overcome and live on.
59
We shall not be defeated.
60
Books of all sorts are escapist.
61
Fictional narratives and made -up characters define any novel.
62
Yet no genres are quite so escapist as science fiction or fantasy.
63
And in that lies their value readable.
64
As Tolkien put it, "I have claimed that escape is one of the main functions of fairy stories, and since I do not disapprove of them,
65
it is plain I do not accept the tone of scorn or pity with which escape is now so often used.
66
Why should a man be scorned if, finding himself in prison, he tries to get out and go home,
67
or if he cannot do so he thinks and talks about other topics and jailers and prison walls?"
68
The ability we all have to read books, imagine worlds
69
and play make -believe is one of the greatest balms any of us can actually have in a world
70
that is often overbearing and full of hardship.
71
Yes, fantasy can take us on an incredible journey, but more than that it gives us the villains
72
and the heroes we need to make sense of the world and to make it just a little bit easier.
73
to live in.

이 클립의 말하기 목표

이 비디오는 IELTS 스피킹과 같은 고급 말하기 실력 향상을 목표로 합니다. 특히 추상적 개념(예: 서브크리에이션, 판타지의 가치)을 논리적으로 전달하는 능력을 키우며, 복잡한 주제를 명료하게 설명하는 유창성과 구조화된 표현을 연습할 수 있습니다. 또한 일상 대화에서 드문 고급 어휘와 문장 구조를 자연스럽게 사용하는 법을 배워, 말하기 실력의 깊이를 높입니다.

유용한 표현 모음

  • lugging a book around: 책을 들고 다니다 (무거워 보이는 것을 계속 가지고 다닐 때 사용)
  • scrubbing up on: ~을 다시 공부하다, ~을 갱신하다 (지식이나 기술을 쌓을 때)
  • swirling in the background: 배경에서 몰려오다 (은밀하게 영향을 미치는 것)
  • internal logic: 내적 논리 (체계나 세계관이 자체적으로 일관성 있을 때)
  • empty vessels into which we can pour: 우리가 내용을 담을 수 있는 빈 그릇 (추상적 개념을 표현할 때)

약점을 보완하는 방법

이 비디오는 영어 발음 교정과 리듬 연습에 특히 유용합니다. 특히 "sub-creation"과 같은 복합어의 발음, "ornate purple prose"와 같은 연속된 자음의 흐름, 그리고 "flickering of a candle"과 같은 비유적인 표현의 강세를 연습할 수 있습니다. 영어 쉐도잉을 할 때는 화자의 말속도와 강세를 정확히 모방하며, 문장 사이의 쉼표를 이용해 자연스러운 휴지기를 연습하세요. shadowing site에서 이 클립을 반복해서 연습하면, 복잡한 문장 구조도 자연스럽게 구사할 수 있게 됩니다. 또한 "dualism in all human life"와 같은 긴 문장을 분절하여 이해하고 발음하는 능력을 키워, 말하기 시에 흐름이 끊기는 문제를 해결할 수 있습니다.

쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법

쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
