MECHANICAL PARADISE, THE 050130
The period 1870-1914 was one of the hinge ponts in Western cultural history. The emblem of the new age was the Eiffel Tower, symbolizing the reign of the engineer and the inventor. Art followed a similar process. It adapted to a radically changing world: an urban world of fragmentation, permeated by machine myths. The results: cubism, with its broken planes, multiple perspectives and "pop art."

MEDICAL EFFECTS OF ALCOHOL 031260
What happens when you drink an alcoholic beverage? You relax. You feel less inhibited. You enjoy yourself. When does enjoyment become abuse, and how does one drink, not to mention years of drinking, effect the body? Although alcohol consumption limits vary with each individual, there is a guage by which one can determine safe and harmful levels of consumption. This provides that guage and explains and illustrates how one alcoholic beverage is metabolized by the body and how long-term drinking wreaks havoc on the body and mind.

MEDIEVAL MIND, THE 055377
Active, curious, inventive, and tough, these were the traits of the medieval mind, and they are not so different from our own. But the Middle Ages had special tensions and conflicts, conveyed to us through reports adapted from men and women of the time. The architecture of the cathedrals reflects an "uneasy balance of opposing forces" with soaring columns, arches, and flying buttresses. Men may have reached for the city of God, but to live in the real world, they invented the harness and horseshoes, the stirrup, the water-wheel and eyeglasses. Mercy and cruelty, attractions of the present world versus hope for Paradise, advanced technology versus spirituality -- these were the tensions that left their permanent mark on Western civilization.

MIDSUMMER NIGHT'S DREAM, A 050030
Devilish fairies, bewitched lovers and stolid workingmen-cum-actors combine in this delicate mixture of farce and fancy to form one of Shakespeare's most playful and enduring comedies. Three plots inter- twine as we watch the entangled love affairs of Demetrius and Helena, Lysander and Hermia; the comical preparations and performance of a "play within a play" by the tradesmen of Athens and antics in fairy- land among King Oberon, his queen Titania and the frolicsome wee fold. Here Shakespeare has created some of his most fanciful and unforget- table characters: Puck, the mischievous sprite; Bottom the weaver, imperturable even though Puck has fitted him with an ass's head, and Hippolyta, the haughty, Amazon-like bride.
