The student writing this Annotated Bibliography is writing their essay on the performance aspects of the play, therefore, their annotations will deal with how the material is useful in that area. The annotations in this example are not 150 words, but yours MUST be. You must add items such as useful quotes, passages etc. that you expect to use in your ISP essay.
Davis, Lloyd. “’Death-Marked Love’: Desire and Presence in Romeo and Juliet.”
Shakespeare Survey 49 (1996): 57-67. Knowing that the love of Romeo and Juliet will end in tragedy from the onset of the play, it is how the events of the play lead to the tragedy that is the essence of the play. Davis explores the darkness and deceit connected with desire and love.
Holmer, Joan Ozark. “’Draw if you be men’: Saviolo’s Significance in Romeo and
Juliet.” Shakespeare Quarterly 45.2 (1994): 163-189. The fencing material in the play is probably derived from the fencing manual of Saviolo, Vincentio Saviolo his Practise. Salviolo’s ideal view that “condemns male quarrelsomeness as irrational when it pursues personal revenge rather than godly truth and justice” is a source for both tragic and comic elements in the play (189).
Levin, Harry. “Form and Formality in Romeo and Juliet.” Shakespeare Quarterly 11.1 (1960): 3-11. Levin points to the unconventionality of the play. Such scenes include the eavesdropping of Romeo during Juliet’s “intended soliloquy” on the balcony.

**Nevo, Ruth. “Romeo and Juliet.” Tragic Form in Shakespeare. Princeton: Princeton UP, 1972. In tracing the play’s five-act structure, Nevo finds that Romeo and Juliet displays a continuous unfolding action, based on classical models of tragic form. With the reversal of their fortunes, the lovers move through the stages of tragic awareness to an acceptance of death as an assertion of their freedom and fidelity.

    Instead of choosing a set of lines from the actual play, I chose to recite the prologue under the category of “Fate or Destiny”. The prologue is quite famous for its foreshadowing and prediction of what will come of Romeo & Juliet. The whole theme of fate and destiny is one of the core lessons behind the classic tale. Shakespeare used the two young lovers and their tragic journey as the perfect story line. The story of two young kids in love and the hardships that are involved in an intimate relationship is a plot that we have seen in countless numbers of books, poems, plays, and movies.…

    Romeo and Juliet is a tragedy written by William Shakespeare in the sixteenth century that encapsulates a lovable cast of characters and a forbidden love that was written in the stars. It is a show that entertained the masses of its time and, despite the intermittently confusing vocabulary, continues to tantalize readers around the world today. One of the reasons that it remains doing so is that of the conversation that is to be had about what happens in the novel. With plot twist after plot twist, the reader is left wondering whose fault everything truly was. The one who is to blame for the outcome of Romeo and Juliet is just that: Romeo himself.…

    Throughout The Odyssey, the audience views Odysseus in many ways, one way as a mighty hero. Greek culture strictly defines a hero while modern culture possesses a looser definition of a hero. Joseph Campbell defines a hero as, "someone who has given his or her life to something bigger than oneself... The hero performs a courageous act in battle and saves lives." Through the lens of a Greek, Odysseus mirrors the picture of heroism. However, twenty first century humans consider Odysseus a famed adventurer. While many different people label Odysseus in different degrees of heroism, the readers find themselves both agreeing and disagreeing with Campbell's statement defining Odysseus as a hero, each individual reader must formulate their own personal opinion on how they view Odysseus, agreeing, disagreeing, or a little bit of both.…

    For my fourth concert report I attended the University of Florida Flute Ensemble Concert, on Tuesday April 16th, 2013 at 7:30pm in the Music Building Room 101. There were four main flutists and one composer but later in the concert during the last two works the whole flute studio was included. The four main flute students were Amy Adams, Margaret Chou, Kelsey Greene and Andy Huang. I have attended another concert in this room but was surprised to see about double the number of people since the last concert and was excited to see the show. The auditorium was small but I enjoyed that because it was quaint and made me feel more comfortable because there was not that many people there and it was more of an intimate setting. Admission to the ensemble was free which was a benefit to the people in attendance so they could enjoy of little bit of music for no cost.…
