As You Like It
A TEACHER’S GUIDE TO THE SIGNET CLASSIC EDITION OF WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE’S AS YOU LIKE IT By JEANNE M. McGLINN, Ph.D., AND JAMES E. McGLINN, Ed.D. SERIES EDITORS: W. GEIGER ELLIS, ED.D., UNIVERSITY OF GEORGIA, EMERITUS and ARTHEA J. S. REED, PH.D., UNIVERSITY OF NORTH CAROLINA, RETIRED A Teacher’s Guide to the Signet Classic Edition of William Shakespeare’s As You Like It 2 INTRODUCTION Shakespeare seems to be everywhere these days. Romeo and Juliet and Midsummer Night's Dream, starring contemporary movie stars, have been box office hits. The film Shakespeare in Love, depicting how the playwright's experiences inspired him to write Romeo and Juliet, won multiple Oscars at the 1999 Academy Awards. These popular films have made the plays more accessible to students by exposing them to Elizabethan language and the action that brings the words to life. So teachers can expect a certain amount of positive interest among students when they begin to read a Shakespearean play. As You Like It, although not well known by students, will certainly delight and build on students' positive expectations. As You Like It, like Twelfth Night and A Midsummer Night's Dream, is one of Shakespeare's "marriage" comedies in which love's complications end in recognition of the true identity of the lovers and celebration in marriage. This is a pattern still followed in today's romantic comedies. This play can lead to discussions of the nature of true love versus romantic love. Other themes, which spin off from the duality between the real and unreal, include appearance versus reality, nature ver- sus fortune, and court life of sophisticated manners contrasted with the natural life. -

The researched issues also include the identification of factors provoked by humans and the state to launch these migrations. Surprisingly enough, opposite to the claims made by independent Kazakhstan leadership in the early 2000s, the number of Kazakhs in Kyrgyzstan wishing to become repatriates to their native country is still far from the desired. Thus the article is an attempt to find out what reasons and factors influence the Kazakh residents’ desire to stay in the neighboring country as a minority. To provide the answer, the authors analyzed the dynamics of statistical variations in the number of migrants and the reasons of these changes. The other key point in tracing what characteristic features separate Kazakhs in Kyrgyzstan and their kinsmen in Kazakhstan is the archival data, statistical, historical, and field sources, which provide a systematic overview of the largely unstudied pages of the history of the Kazakh diaspora. -

QUILTER: Folk Song Arrangements • Complete Part-Songs for Women's
QUILTER: Folk Song Arrangements • Complete Part-Songs for Women’s Voices 8.557495 The Arnold Book of Old Songs – English Songs Come love be all my joy. [1] Drink to me only Thou alone art my delight. Text: Ben Jonson (1573–1637) Come love be my heart of gold And who but my Lady Greensleeves. Drink to me only with thine eyes, And I will pledge with mine; Oh who is sweet as she is sweet Or leave a kiss within the cup Above all things that mortals prize: And I’ll not ask for wine. I’d lay a kingdom at her feet The thirst that from the soul doth rise Nor seek a richer merchandise. Doth ask a drink divine; But might I of Jove’s nectar sup, Come love be all my joy I would not change for thine. Thou alone art my delight, Come love be my heart of gold, I sent thee late a rosy wreath, And who but my Lady Greensleeves. Not so much honouring thee, As giving it a hope that there Oh who is rare as she is rare It could not withered be. And who is such a charming maid. But thou thereon didst only breathe The lute shall tell her my despair And sent’st it back to me; And fill with song the myrtle shade. Since when it grows, and smells, I swear, Not of itself but thee. Come love be all my joy Thou alone art my delight, [2] Over the mountains Come love be my heart of gold, Text: From Percy’s Reliques, And who but my Lady Greensleeves.
