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.
Stamm, R. “The First Meeting of

    William Shakespeare's play Romeo and Juliet is without doubt one of the most well-known love story. Throughout the five acts of the play, one tragedy follows another, with the famous suicide of Romeo and Juliet as a tragic conclusion. Throughout the play, it may seem that Romeo caused these events to unfold, however it is unjust to say that he bears all responsibility for the tragedy. The decisions, actions and circumstances that other characters made and faced have also contributed to the tragic outcome. Nevertheless, it is also in the hands of fate that destined the immature deaths of Romeo and Juliet…

    Staring at the cover of The Other Wes Moore during my Advising and Registration Day in the spring, I honestly was not prepared to already have a summer assignment, especially since I should have been enjoying the summer before the real world started. My initial reactions to the book were like any other teenager. I judged this book by its cover and came to the realization that the only way I would open this book was by my own destiny. I had to make the decision to do the assignment and I knew I was fully responsible for this action.…

    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.…

    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.…
