Today, videos proved themselves a great way of absorbing new information, and it’s helpful for both studying in the classroom and self-education. For this post, to share some useful content, I have collected short videos about famous writers, their lives, and heritage. These lessons are presented by The School of Life, which is both a YouTube channel and a real-life school for adults devoted to emotional education and located on 10 campuses around the world. They are focused mostly on the humanities, especially philosophy, psychotherapy, literature, and art. Let’s check some of the videos telling about the great masters of word from different epochs and backgrounds. I would also highly recommend these materials for English lessons with non-native speakers as good training for listening and vocabulary skills. Enjoy and stay tuned!
