Petruchio, definitely
the funniest and best thing i’ve learned while doing research for this shakespeare project is that in the late 19th century, there was this group called the american acclimatization society and their thing was bringing european plants and animals to the u.s. so one member was this guy named eugene schieffelin and he was like obsessed with shakespeare, so he went, “hey, wouldn’t it be cool if we tracked down EVERY SPECIES OF BIRD SHAKESPEARE EVER MENTIONED and brought them ALL to America” so he rounded up like a hundred European starlings and released them in central park, and now there are upwards of 200 million starlings in North America and they cause around $1 billion worth of damage to crops every year, all because shakespeare mentioned them exactly ONCE in Henry IV part 1
#the shakespeare fandom is wild
Be so good they learn your name.
Are you a fan of fairy tales, publisher’s bindings, or just appreciate a beautiful, old book? If so, get ready to see one of the loveliest series of fairy tales to come out of the late 19th and early 20th centuries!
Pictured are twelve books of fairy tales which were compiled and edited by the Scots poet, novelist, and literary critic, Andrew Lang. Each volume is distinguished by its own color, and and the complete series contains 437 unique tales.
The top picture from left to right displays The Brown Fairy Book, The Crimson Fairy Book, The Pink Fairy Book, The Red Fairy Book, The Orange Fairy Book, The Yellow Fairy Book, The Olive Fairy Book, The Green Fairy Book, The Blue Fairy Book, The Violet Fairy Book, and The Grey Fairy Book. All of these books are first editions and come with the original slipcase, and some still even have their dust covers.
Now you are probably anxious to see the covers of these books, and perhaps take a peek into some of the interior illustrations? Have no fear, as later this week and next week there will be three more posts featuring these beautiful books.

I don’t know. That’s kind’ve a weird question. I mean, I joined to put myself through college and uh, it’s, I’m just a desk jockey, but it’s rewarding, so uh, yeah, I guess I’m ‘in love’ with the Army. Oh, Beatrice? Yeah, that makes a lot more sense. Yeah, I’m definitely in love with Beatrice. That’s affirmative.

MORRISTOWN, NJ—"When most people hear The Merchant of Venice, they think 1960s Las Vegas, but it's time to shake things up," said maverick director Kevin Hiles.
I know when most people hear The Merchant Of Venice, they think 1960s Las Vegas, a high-powered Manhattan stock brokerage, or an 18th-century Georgia slave plantation, but I think it’s high time to shake things up a bit
