Book excerpt: Let's face it - Romeo and Juliet got tons of bad advice from the adults in their lives. From a secret wedding to running from the law to faking a death, these kids never had much of a chance. That's why they've been dying on stage for hundreds of years. It's time they got a fresh start.'White Trash Classics Presents: Romeo and Juliet' takes our naive, star-crossed lovers and sets them in two warring trails parks. The Crapulets and the Mountafoos are still at odds. And these two poor kids still suffer tragic turns of fate with the prodding and prompting of so-called grown ups they turn to for advice. While the time honored story beats of The Bard's tale remain true, here we get a look at the comic side of Shakespeare's play. In these pages you'll meet the local Sewer King, a fancy chicken breeder (who also performs weddings on the side), a corrupt Mayor on the take, Uncle Cousin Bobby (an amateur coroner's assistant) and the worst marital counselor of all time.Crude? Yes. Offensive? Sure. A desecration of literature? Maybe. But refreshingly readable and relatable for a modern audience looking to spend a humorous afternoon with a play they might have struggled with in high school.

Book excerpt: Sixth graders Devin and Frankie try to save star-crossed lovers Romeo and Juliet when they’re magically transported into Shakespeare’s classic play. When their teacher assigns Devin and Frankie—short for Francine—the lead roles in their class production of Romeo and Juliet, the two best friends aren’t thrilled. How are they supposed to say their lines when they don’t even sound like they were written in English? Luckily, the library’s magic security gates come to their rescue again, and they leap into Shakespeare’s famous tragedy. Unfortunately, they land right in the middle of a sword fight between two warring families, the Montagues and the Capulets. When they find out that Romeo Montague has fallen in love with Juliet Capulet, Devin and Frankie decide it’s up to them to make sure this unlikely couple lives happily ever after. But can they change the book’s tragic end and save the young lovers from their fate? “The message that reading is important and can be fun comes through loud and clear,” writes School Library Journal about the Cracked Classics series. “The short chapters make this an ideal read-aloud and a treat for reluctant readers.”
Download or read book The Tragedy of Romeo and Juliet Classic Reprint written by William Shakespeare and published by . This book was released on 2016-07-03 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Tragedy of Romeo and Juliet Q 1 differs so considerably, and in so many minute details, from the received text, that the variations can not be rightly exhibited in notes; it must be read in its entirety, and happily it is easily accessible in the facsimile by Praetorius, in Mommsen's reprint, in the Caiizorielge Shakespeare, in Furness, and (with most advantage for the student) in the New Shakspere Society's reprint of Parallel Texts of t/ze First Two Quartos, admirably edited by Mr. Daniel. Such readings as have been adopted from Q I into the text of modern editors have a special claim to attention; these I have, with few exceptions, recorded, and have added in notes and in Appendix I. Several lines and passages differing from the received text in a way which can hardly be accounted for by errors of the printer or reporter. In these, or in some of these, we probably find work of Shakespeare discarded in his revision of the play.

Download or read book The Odyssey written by Gareth Hinds and published by Gareth Hinds. This book was released on 2010-10-12 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fresh from his triumphs in the Trojan War, Odysseus, King of Ithaca, wants nothing more than to return home to his family. Instead, he offends the sea god, Poseidon, who dooms him to years of shipwreck and wandering. Battling man-eating monsters, violent storms, and the supernatural seductions of sirens and sorceresses, Odysseus will need all his strength and cunning--and a little help from Mount Olympus--to make his way home and seize his kingdom from the schemers who seek to wed his queen and usurp his throne. Award-winning graphic artist Gareth Hinds masterfully reinterprets a story of heroism, adventure, and high action that has been told and retold for more than 2,500 years--though never quite like this. With bold imagery and an ear tuned to the music of Homer’s epic poem, Gareth Hinds reinterprets the ancient classic as it’s never been told before.

Download or read book The Tragedie of Hamlet Prince of Denmark written by George MacDonald and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-01-29 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By this edition of HAMLET I hope to help the student of Shakspere to understand the play-and first of all Hamlet himself, whose spiritual and moral nature are the real material of the tragedy, to which every other interest of the play is subservient. But while mainly attempting, from the words and behaviour Shakspere has given him, to explain the man, I have cast what light I could upon everything in the play, including the perplexities arising from extreme condensation of meaning, figure, and expression. As it is more than desirable that the student should know when he is reading the most approximate presentation accessible of what Shakspere uttered, and when that which modern editors have, with reason good or bad, often not without presumption, substituted for that which they received, I have given the text, letter for letter, point for point, of the First Folio, with the variations of the Second Quarto in the margin and at the foot of the page.
