[SHAKESPEARE] ed. by H.J. Oliver $8
[AI]ITEM YB27…TRAGEDY OF ROMEO & JULIET ed.by
J.A.Bryant $4
Presents the original text of Shakespeare's
play side by side with a modern version, discusses the author and the theater
of his time, and provides quizzes and other study activities. Set during five of the most intensely
dramatic days ever portrayed, ROMEO AND JULIET was probably written in 1594 or
1595, and first published in a 1597 edition, as transcribed by actors who had
performed it. Other editions appeared later, but even the more authoritative
versions, such as that of 1599--probably drawn from Shakespeare's own
manuscript copies--lack the detailed stage directions present in the actors'
transcription; thus, modern editions incorporate several sources. ROMEO AND
JULIET is among the most oft performed of Shakespeare's works, and it has been
among the most beloved since its earliest days on the stage. Though the title
page of the 1597 edition declares that ROMEO AND JULIET had been performed and
enjoyed many times prior to its publication, the first extant direct record of
the events of a production refer to a 1662 staging, in which the play was
probably adapted or altered--adaption was particularly popular in the 17th
century. One London
stage ran different conclusions on alternative nights; audiences who went home
glum on Friday could be uplifted by the play's ending if they returned on
Saturday night. The story of ROMEO AND JULIET was derived by Shakespeare from
many sources. The version most contemporary to his own was the 1562 poem
"The Tragicall History of Romeus and Iuliet" by Arthur Brooke, which
itself was an adaptation of a French piece by Pierre Boaistuau, which Boaistuau
had adapted from the Italian. Indeed, aspects of the tragic story have recurred
throughout Western literature since at least the third century. Shakespeare
greatly intensified the pace by compressing a piece which had unfolded over the
course of several months into the space of five days--a period in which much
transpires at daybreak, including the famous balcony scene where Romeo
declares, "But soft, what light through yonder window breaks?/It is the
east, and Juliet is the sun." Romeo is forced to approach Juliet in secret
because of the impassioned rivalry between his family, the Montagues--and
Juliet's, the Capulets. Despite the intensity of their family's mutual disdain,
the young lovers strive to marry. However, fate intervenes to keep them apart,
and, when the Montagues and Capulets discover the folly of their ways, it's too
late for Romeo and Juliet

1,000 years ago the Anasazi lived in New
Mexico in an ingenious large-scale, urban, technological society centred around
elaborate ritual, monumental building, unity consciousness and principles of
peace. They then disappeared suddenly
about 700 years ago. On August 16th
and 17th, 1987, about 3,000 re-incarnations of these entities were
drawn back to the ancient Mystery School in Chaco Canyon to meet with the
ancient guardian spirits of the canyon to receive a message of ONE for the
present time. This book documents that
event.

[AO,]ITEM AO45…THE PROPHETIC VISION OF MERLIN R.J.
Stewart $9
Merlin’s prophecies are embedded within
Geoffrey of Monmouth’s 12th century History of the British Kings,
which has now been confirmed to be a plagiarism of a far older Welsh document,
moving the actual events from Wales
and Scotland to England . Nevertheless, the core of the prophesies has
been preserved, providing prevision, in startling and accurate detail, to
modern times. This includes prediction
of the Union of Scotland and England ,
the Industrial Revolution, quartz crystal technology, and oil development in
the North Sea .
These predictions were published by Monmouth six centuries after they
were made originally, and three centuries before Nostradamus repeated some of
them. The prophesies also embody a
memory of the religion of Lemuria, brought to Wales by the Fryslan King
At-Ur-Mu (the real King Arthur) after the North Sea Tsunami of 448 a.d.
destroyed his own country. Thus they are
an esoteric text and metaphysical manual which links ancient Wales back to
Atlantis and forward to modern Pleiadian thought.

AA39…WHAT’S RIGHT WITH [CHRISTIAN] FEMINISM Elaine Storkey $4
Storkey puts the complex landscape of the
woman's movement into perspective. She discusses liberal feminism,
Marxist feminism and radical feminism before turning to some Christian
responses, focusing on those who deny that feminism has any Christian case and
those who, on the contrary, have found in feminism a new awareness of their
spirituality. Finally, a 'third way' is presented, a biblically-rooted
Christian feminism which reaches beyond the institutional church to all areas of
life.

AA42…CIRCLE OF STONES Judith Duerk $9
Long ago before the patriarchal period, in
many places on Earth, the Goddess was worshipped. Circle of Stones draws us into a meditative experience of the lost
Feminine and creates a space for us to consider our present lives from the eyes
of women's ancient culture and ritual. Incorporating the most ancient symbol of
spirituality — the circle of stones — Duerk weaves stories, dreams, and visions
of women to lead each reader into a personal yet archetypal journey, posing the
reflective question, "How might your life have been different if . . .
?" Circle of Stones is about
discovering the power of the feminine and the core of our beings. It is rich
with the history, myth and images of the collective consciousness of woman to
guide us in our journey. Beautifully conveyed, it is art, poetry and metaphor:
astonishingly simple, yet undeniably sublime. 1989 softcover, good condition.

Griselda Pollock $20
This
radically new study redefines the American artist Mary Cassat's status in the
Parisian avant-garde and in American art, placing her work in the wider context
of 19th century feminism and art theory. Cassatt's art explores a New
Woman's perspective on the spaces of modernity: at the theatre, in the
drawing-room and garden, in the studio. Admired by Degas -- who invited
her to show with the Impressionists in 1877 -- Cassatt's work reveals her
profound study of Old Masters and keen responses to contemporary French and
Spanish painters. Griselda Pollock puts a new emphasis on Cassatt's
interest in Manet and her influence on American collections of French
modernism. She also argues that Cassatt's experimentation with etching
and pastel from the late 1880s enabled her to represent children and women
without sentimentality but with a deepening awareness of a complex psychological
charge.

BA20…THE USES OF ENCHANTMENT Bruno Bettelheim $14
“Bettelheim has written
a charming book about enchantment, a profound book about fairy tales....What is
new, and exciting, is the warmth, humane and urgent, with which Bettelheim
expounds fairy titles as aids to the child's growth, which he understands as a
growth through conflicts, the chief conflict being Oedipal ...The Uses of Enchantment cannot
enforce the use of fairy stories without a matrix of family security and social
consensus; but at least it shows us how cunningly, how lovingly, the anonymous
generations of 'a happier age' prepared their children for the challenges of life
and guided them toward sexual, ethical health, once upon a time."
