This lecture gently introduces the idea of parametrizing surfaces in space. The content is a prequel to integration over surfaces that sit in 3D. Many examples are discussed and a method to find tangent vectors and normal vectors to a given surface are presented.

This lecture continues discussing "surface integrals" and further illustrates how to integral functions over surfaces. The idea is a generalization of double integrals in the plane. The concept of surface integral has a number of important applications in the field of engineering, for ...

This lecture discusses "surface integrals" of vector fields. In particular, we discover how to integrate vector fields over surfaces in 3D space and "flux" integrals. A few examples are presented to illustrate the ideas. Such concepts have important applications in fluid flow and electr...

In this final lecture on Paradise Lost, Book Twelve’s justification for the expulsion of Adam and Eve from the garden is examined alongside the Genesis account. The nature of Milton's God, whether literal or liberal, is examined at length. The poem's closing lines are closely read, wit...

Books Eleven and Twelve of Paradise Lost and their radical departure from the poem’s previous style are discussed. The transformation of Milton's famously sonorous verse into a more didactic mode is closely documented, and the poem's increasing emphasis on visual instruction is undersc...

This second lecture on the Fall traces Milton’s use of the word wander, in all of its forms, across the poem. The transformation of wander from its pre-fallen sense to its more nefarious incarnation following the transgression is examined closely. The wider literary context of the concept of wan...
