The Merchant of Venice
The Merchant of Venice is a play by William Shakespeare, believed to have been written between 1596 and 1598. Although classified as a comedy in the First Folio, and while it shares certain aspects with Shakespeare's other romantic comedies, the play is perhaps more remembered for its dramatic scenes, and is best known for the character of Shylock.The title character is the merchant Antonio, not the Jewish moneylender Shylock, who is the play's most prominent and more famous villain. Though Shylock is a tormented character, he is also a tormentor, so whether he is to be viewed with disdain or sympathy is up to the audience (as influenced by the interpretation of the play's director and lead actors). As a result, The Merchant of Venice is often classified as one of Shakespeare's problem plays.

Beatles, The - Abbey Road (50th Anniversary Deluxe Box Set) 3LP
Jedna z nejdůležitějších kapel hudební historie Beatles 27. září vydává reedici slavného alba Abbey Road. Ikonická fotografie kapely přecházející přes přechod pro chodce byla totiž vyfocena fotografem Ianem Macmillanem 27. září přesně před 50 lety. Macmillan balancující na žebříku kousek od přechodu v ulici Abbey Road, kde se nachází dnes již stejnojmenná slavná nahrávací studia, zachytil pouze šest fotografií, přičemž na cover alba byla vybrána pátá z nich.
Abbey Road nebylo sice posledním albem kapely, neboť o rok později v roce 1970 vyšla ještě deska Let It Be, ale jedná se o poslední album, na kterém ještě spolupracovali všichni členové kapely - John Lennon, Ringo Starr, Paul McCartney a George Harrison - společně. Abbey Road, které debutovalo na první příčce britských i amerických žebříčků, kde se drželo 17 týdnů, se vylisovaly miliony kusů, v roce 1995 si deska vysloužila uvedení do Grammy Hall of Fame za nahrávku neupadající kvality a historického významu a album dodnes zůstává nejprodávanější studiovou deskou kapely. Snímek z obalu alba se stal jednou z nejslavnějších fotografií a ikonický přechod je každoročně hojně navštěvovaným místem tisíců fanoušků kapely. Studia byla z původních EMI Recording Studios přejmenována na Abbey Road Studios a stala se nejslavnějšími nahrávacími studii na světě.
Všech sedmnáct skladeb bylo nově zmixováno producentem Gilesem Martinem - synem legendárního producenta George Martina, který s Beatles od samých začátků pracoval. „Kouzlo vychází z rukou, které hrají na nástroje, z prolínání hlasů Beatles, z krásy aranží,” komentuje reedici Martin. „Naším úkolem bylo jenom ujistit se, že všechno bude znít tak čerstvě a chytí vás tak intenzivně, jako v den, kdy byly skladby poprvé nahrány.” Základní sada písní je doplněna o 23 studiových a demo nahrávek, z nichž většina nebyla dříve vydána. Na desce se nachází hity, jako je například Come Together, Here Comes The Sun, Oh! Darling nebo Octopus's Garden.
Deluxe edice alba obsahují knihu s komentářem Paula McCartneyho, historika Beatles Kevina Howletta, poznámky ke každé ze skladeb, esej od hudebního publicisty Davida Hepwortha, která reflektuje vliv alba, dříve nevydané fotografie, které z většiny zachytila Linda McCartney, ručně psané texty, korespondenci Beatles, tehdejší reklamní letáky a mnoho dalšího.

Rudimental - Toast To Our Differences 2LP
KDO: Rudimental debutovali v roce 2013 deskou Home. Nahrávka, z níž vzešly hity Waiting All Night, Feel The Love nebo Not Giving In, byla s jedním milionem prodaných kopií jedním z nejvydařenějších anglických startů roku. Krotitelům lámaných beatů z Londýna navíc přinesla cenu Brit Awards i nominaci na prestižní Mercury Prize. Prostřednictvím zmíněných hitů skupina rovněž zviditelnila i hostující vokalisty v čele se zpěvačkou Ellou Eyre a zpěvákem Johnem Newmanem. Na koncepčně podobném druhém albu We The Generation se mezi hosty objevují i velká jména, například Ed Sheeran nebo zpěvačka Anne-Marie.
CO: Na třetím albu Rudimental opět nabízejí střet kultur a žánrů. Zvukově pestrá nahrávka osciluje mezi tanečním popem, drum'n'bassem nebo soulem a je k dispozici na CD a 2LP. Pořídit lze i Deluxe CD variantu, jež je podobně jako 2LP oproti standardní verzi bohatší o tři skladby.

The Architecture of Happiness
From one of our greatest voices in modern philosophy, author of The Course of Love, The Consolations of Philosophy and The School of Life, The Architecture of Happiness explores the fascinating hidden links between the buildings we live in and our long-term wellbeing.
'Engaging and intelligent . . . Full of splendid ideas, happily and beautifully expressed' Independent
What makes a house truly beautiful? Why are many new houses so ugly? Why do we argue so bitterly about sofas and pictures - and can differences of taste ever be satisfactorily resolved?
To answer these questions and many more, de Botton looks at buildings across the world, from medieval wooden huts to modern skyscrapers; he examines sofas and cathedrals, tea sets and office complexes, and teases out a host of often surprising philosophical insights. The Architecture of Happiness will take you on a beguiling tour through the history and psychology of architecture and interior design, and will change the way you look at your home.
