Shakespeare: Text Into Performance (Critical Studies, Penguin)

Shakespeare is an important part of our literary heritage, and yet for many students the Elizabethan language is an obstacle to understanding and enjoying the plays. Shakespearean scholar and educator Peter Reynolds has an innovative approach to the text that breaks down those barriers by using games, exercises, music, and art. His fresh ideas for teaching Shakespeare's plays are presented in clear, detailed chapters with down-to-earth suggestions for actual classroom sessions. For instance, Macbeth comes alive for students as they use the language of the play to cheerfully "insult" their colleagues by courtesy of Shakespeare. They'll begin to experiment with the sound of language in games like "Chinese Whispers" and "Alphabet Improvising". Best of all, they'll enjoy exploring the plays for themselves as they learn techniques for "de-mystifying" Shakespeare. Covering everything from teacher preparation to follow-up work, Practical Approaches to Teaching Shakespeare is a stimulating and invaluable aid for all teachers of English.

Just more than 30 years ago, a little-known poet named Pam Ayres made her debut on the ITV talent show Opportunity Knocks. Since then, she has taken the nation by storm, entertaining millions of people with her books, stage shows, and radio and television appearances. Her first BBC Radio 4 series, Ayres on the Air, was a huge success, and this second series proves to be every bit as droll and delightful. A mix of comic poetry, sketches, and observations on life, each program is themed around a different subject: Fame, Animals, Travel, Motherhood, The Old Days, and Food. Here are much-loved poems such as ‘Do You Think Bruce Springsteen would Fancy Me?,’ ‘I’m Going to Be Surgically Enhanced,’ ‘Clamp the Mighty Limpet,’ ‘How Can That Be My Baby?,’ ‘The Dolly on the Dustcart,’ ‘With These Hands,’ and ‘Thoughts of a Late-Night Knitter;’ and sketches about the frustration of calling rail enquiry lines, the art of text messaging, and trying to stick to a diet. These six programs show the inimitable Pam Ayres at her warmest and wittiest, and are guaranteed to amuse and delight her many fans. 1 CDs, 180 minutes

This book explores the development and nature of farming in Britain throughout the prehistoric period. Starting with the transition from the hunter-gatherer in the late neolithic/early neolithic, expert author Peter Reynolds traces the sequence of farming from the initial struggle to dominate the landscape to the full 'agroscope' of the late iron age. He presents both plantstock and livestock, as based upon the evidence from archaeological excavations with discussion of how these elements interact with one another and the implications they have for our understanding of prehistoric farming.Much of the evidence for prehistoric agriculture, especially for the late iron age, has been subjected to experimental research at the Butser Ancient Farm Research Project in Hampshire. Many of the latest results of that research have been incorporated into the text enhancing theory with practical probability.
