Shakespeare and language is an area of study that here includes style; speech; sound and sex. As the foremost Shakespeare publication; Shakespeare Survey has been well placed to reflect trends and developments in academic approaches to Shakespeare and to language and this collection of essays; first published in 2004; considers the characteristics; excitement and unique qualities of Shakespeares language; the relationship between language and event; and the social; theatrical and literary function of language. A new introduction; by Jonathan Hope; explicates the differences between Shakespeares language and our own; provides a theoretical and contextual framework for the pieces that follow; and makes transparent an aspect of Shakespeares craft (and the critical response to it) that has frequently been opaque.

It uses captioned pictures to tell the story. This book deals with the history of downtown Tacoma. It breaks the timeline into 10 year periods of time from the beginning of Tacoma. As someone who lived in Tacoma when I was young; it brought back memories of what downtown Tacoma looked like.
