MCA-700 Midline/Reissue Series
MCA 700 Discography by David Edwards, Mike Callahan & Patrice Eyries © 2018 by Mike Callahan MCA-700 Midline/Reissue Series: By the time the reissue series reached MCA-700, most of the ABC reissues had been accomplished in the MCA 500-600s. MCA decided that when full price albums were converted to midline prices, the albums needed a new number altogether rather than just making the administrative change. In this series, we get reissues of many MCA albums that were only one to three years old, as well as a lot of Decca reissues. Rather than pay the price for new covers and labels, most of these were just stamped with the new numbers in gold ink on the front covers, with the same jackets and labels with the old catalog numbers.

BENVOLIO but New Struck Nine. ROMEO Ay Me! Sad Hours Seem Long
BENVOLIO/ROMEO BENVOLIO Good-morrow, cousin. ROMEO Is the day so young? BENVOLIO But new struck nine. ROMEO Ay me! sad hours seem long. Was that my father that went hence so fast? BENVOLIO It was. What sadness lengthens Romeo's hours? ROMEO Not having that, which, having, makes them short. BENVOLIO In love? ROMEO Out-- BENVOLIO Of love? ROMEO Out of her favour, where I am in love. BENVOLIO Alas, that love, so gentle in his view, Should be so tyrannous and rough in proof! ROMEO Alas, that love, whose view is muffled still, Should, without eyes, see pathways to his will! BENVOLIO Tell me in sadness, who is that you love. ROMEO What, shall I groan and tell thee? BENVOLIO Groan! why, no. But sadly tell me who. ROMEO In sadness, cousin, I do love a woman. BENVOLIO I aim'd so near, when I supposed you loved. ROMEO/JULIET ROMEO [To JULIET] If I profane with my unworthiest hand This holy shrine, the gentle fine is this: My lips, two blushing pilgrims, ready stand To smooth that rough touch with a tender kiss. JULIET Good pilgrim, you do wrong your hand too much, Which mannerly devotion shows in this; For saints have hands that pilgrims' hands do touch, And palm to palm is holy palmers' kiss. ROMEO Have not saints lips, and holy palmers too? JULIET Ay, pilgrim, lips that they must use in prayer. ROMEO O, then, dear saint, let lips do what hands do; They pray, grant thou, lest faith turn to despair. JULIET Saints do not move, though grant for prayers' sake. -

Macbeth: a Tragedy Soma Debray Department of English Narajole Raj College
MACBETH: A TRAGEDY SOMA DEBRAY DEPARTMENT OF ENGLISH NARAJOLE RAJ COLLEGE Macbeth is the one play of Shakespeare that shows the audience that even the darkest of evil can also be human. It may as well be horrible, but pitiable too. Macbeth is far less complex than the other tragedies of Shakespeare and frequently raises the question as to if this play is really tragic; Macbeth does not feel guilt and so the question of punishment doesn’t arise. What Shakespeare deals with in Macbeth is the consequence of unpardonable evil --- inescapable punishment. Yet at the same time the audience is moved by pity for the sufferings of the propagator of evil. This creates confusion in reactions to the fate of the protagonist. Macbeth’s end is a sorry end, but resulting from his monstrous career. Macbeth’s death is a defeat. Pity or awe is not raised by his death. Dying off-stage seems to be a reflection of the world’s desire to get rid of him. The sight of his severed head is an assurance of rightful kingship of Malcom. Macbeth is dismissed as “the dead butcher and his fiend-like queen.” The audience feels the justice established, but strangely enough, a rush of pity. The last scene is a projection of the absolute destruction of a man; a complete destruction of everything that he stood for. Hamlet, Lear, and Othello’s fortunes are terrible too, losing the beauty of their lives, but at the end they realise that all is not lost. The beauty and love of their life is not all forsaken; this eases the pain of death to some extent. -

Romeo & Juliet
AQA English Literature GCSE Romeo and Juliet: Character Profile Juliet All images sources from www.commons.wikimedia.org www.pmt.education Juliet Capulet INTRODUCTION Juliet is the female protagonist of the play. She makes up the “...pair of star-crossed lovers…” the tragedy is centred around. Although Juliet is only 13, Capulet arranges her marriage to Paris in the first scene she is mentioned. Thus, Shakespeare presents her as an object of desire whose only function is to be married. Although she is seen in such a reductive way, the character displays complexity and maturity which contrasts with her young age. The protagonist can be perceived as an anomaly in the play, as she is the only character who attempts to reject the societal pressures she faces: she insists on marrying for love and takes action against her circumstances. Juliet becomes the catalyst that causes the metamorphosis of Romeo from a Petrarchan lover to a Shakespearan lover. Ultimately, the two lovers meet a tragic end, but Juliet’s action at the end of the play signifies the lengths to which the character is able to go in order to assert her freedom. CHARACTER IN CONTEXT The Nurse Juliet’s close relationship with her Nurse directly contrasts with how distant she is with her mother. This reflects how many upper-class mothers did not raise their own children. Instead, the Nurse carries out the role of the traditional mother; she gives Juliet advice, looks after her and even elaborates that she breastfed Juliet. This can be seen in the quote, “For I had then laid wormwood to my dug,” outlining how Juliet’s relationship with the Nurse is more naturally maternal than with Lady Capulet. -

Assaf Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet is transported to modern-day New York City, as two young idealistic lovers find themselves caught between warring street gangs, the "American" Jets and the Puerto Rican Sharks. Their struggle to survive in a world of hate, violence and prejudice is one of the most innovative, heart- wrenching and relevant musical dramas of our time. 3 | P a g e West Side Story tells a tale of cultural conflict. There is a clash between people of European descent (the Jets) and those of Puerto Rican decent (the Sharks.) Culture encompasses many things and is embodied by many things. Often, when we hear this word “culture” we think of the arts. Art is can embody culture and display it, visually (paintings, photographs, sculptures) or through sound and movement (music, dance or theater.) Art can depict the style of clothing or hair, types of food people like to eat, or celebrations that are important to them.
