Mar 17, Daniel rated it really liked it Shelves: books-about-writing. Fowler's "Modern English Usage" is one of those books that really has no business existing: a reference guide that's fun to read. You could spend hours flipping from entry to entry -- especially since many of the entries make reference to others -- discovering all the mistakes you've been making in your writing over the years. Because H.

Jan 27, Bob Nichols rated it did not like it. This book has a few gems to educate the reader on the history of usage and to correct some common misunderstandings and mistakes. But these are hidden in a mass of detail. The book is plagued with the following defects: 1 too often Fowler takes forever, if ever, to make his point and, even then, his point is not frequently clear; 2 on the issue of clarity, Fowler lapses into his own considerable jargon so that, for example, "'of' is here not partitive but appositional" and it is even now more This book has a few gems to educate the reader on the history of usage and to correct some common misunderstandings and mistakes.

In reading some of the reviews of this book, it is understandable why many do appreciate what Fowler has done. To read through pages of dictionary style treatment on usage generally would require that level of appreciation. But as a general guide for those not so enthused with all this detail, Fowler seems dated recent, not modern, Englishand overly obsessive and obscure. He would go nuts today's computer age. If two thirds of his book were eliminated, it would be a valuable reference guide, but then it wouldn't be Fowler either. Aug 11, Simon rated it it was amazing. Fowler is truly the most english of englishmen. This is a righteously indignant, uptight, catty look at how language should and shouldn't be used. While the second edition was mildly updated in by Sir Ernest Gowers, it remains in essence a turn of the century work. Just plain fun to read. Jun 20, Sammy rated it really liked it Shelves: non-fiction. I have to agree with the more erudite reviews already posted: in some ways, this is a 5-star Fowlers Dictionary of Modern English Usage. In others, it's a write-off. As a writer myself, I find Fowler to be one of the pre-eminent reference texts. He covers a vast range of words and phrases - from the regularly misused to archaisms which, when they are used, need clarifying - with a wit that often borders on scathing. It's great fun to be searching for a simple definition or clarification, and end up having a good giggle at the same ti I have to agree with the more erudite reviews already posted: in some ways, this is a Fowlers Dictionary of Modern English Usage work. It's great fun to be searching for a simple definition Fowlers Dictionary of Modern English Usage clarification, and end up having a good giggle at the same time. Because the book was written in the 'glory days' of the early 20th century, Fowler takes time to explain his stance, without resorting to dumbing down the information. On the other hand, as other commentators have noted, one Fowlers Dictionary of Modern English Usage the joys of the English language is its evolution. I believe that the history of a word is vitally important, that Fowlers Dictionary of Modern English Usage more than simply competent in your language is a great gift, and thus am I against these dimwitted arguments to simplify our spelling, or limit our general vocabulary in academic institutions or the media. However, language is in a state of constant flux, and to argue that there is only ever one correct usage of a word or term is ridiculous. Something that was correct in for Fowler may be ludicrous for us inand may have been equally so for Elizabeth I, or Samuel Johnson, or Jane Austen. Beyond this, Fowler seems to be confused about the distinction between formal and informal language use. Is idomatic English to be held to the same standards as formal documents? Isn't one of the joys of being proficient in your language, that you can stretch the boundaries of meaning and definition - both in a parodic, conversational manner, and in a serious way? As with anyone who grows passionate about a subject that is steeped in tradition, I always feel torn in these situations: to revere Fowler for his wit, intelligence, and passion? Or bemoan him for being a pedant? The question lingers The edition was riveting, the sort of prose that seduces your snarky mind and infects your dreams. Logical, romantic, hilarious: the firmest virtues. This thick modern update is a bag of wind, a pail of Sominex. Consult it if you need to, but don't say I didn't warn you if the resulting narcolepsy puts you off your game. Years ago, I fell in love with Fowler's righteous wrath, his irony, his impeccable use of Oxford comma. Whenever I feel down, I open this book and read a random entry. Should you read it?

Begun in England 150 years ago, it took more than 60 years to complete, and when it was finally finished in 1928, the British prime minister heralded it as a ‘national treasure’. It maintained this image throughout the twentieth century, and in 2006 the English public voted it an ‘Icon of England’, alongside Marmite, Buckingham Palace, and the bowler hat.

Departing from well-worn accounts of the English dictionary as a series of more-or-less discrete texts created by more-or-less famous men to constitute a near-neutral record of the entire language, “Women in the English Language Dictionary” conceives, instead, of the English language dictionary as a rhetorical genre, the form, content, audience, exigence, and cultural consequences of which are gendered and gendering. As a focused analysis of the emergence and evolution of a genre, “Women in the English Language Dictionary” finds that women—as an abstract construction and as a social collectivity—were integral for the framing of early dictionaries’ exigencies and for the fashioning of audiences invoked by the genre. Women signal major shifts in the genre’s purposes and participants, shifts heretofore neglected in favor of generic phases delimited by changes in form and content.

  • From Abominable to Zealous
    ENGLISH From Abominable to Zealous A comparison of British usage guides th from the early 20 century till today Måns Jonsson Supervisor: Larisa Gustafsson Oldireva BA thesis Examiner: Spring 2014 Joe Trotta Title: From Abominable to Zealous: A comparison of British usage guides from the early 20th century till today. Author: Måns Jonsson Supervisor: Larisa Gustafsson Oldireva Abstract: The aim of this study is to examine the views on linguistic phenomena which have been criticised during the past century. The material used is six British usage guides published between 1906 and 2010 in which five controversial points of usage are selected for study. They are: between you and I (instead of me), split infinitives, the placement of only in a sentence, singular none, and different(ly) to/than (instead of from). The attitudes to these phenomena are analysed and compared. The analysis is focused on the language used by the authors and descriptive and prescriptive elements displayed in the guides. The results show that although there are differences between the usage guides, there is no clearly distinct trend in diachronic changes of attitudes within the studied period. However, some points of usage are approached with uniform attitudes by all the guides. The character of descriptive discourse does not seem to change in one direction across the century under study, but observable contrasts in recent discussions on the controversial issues of usage point to the possibility of a new wave of prescriptivism. Keywords: Usage guides, stigmatised language, diachronic change, prescriptivism, descriptivism, linguistic prestige, attitudes to correctness. Table of contents 1.

  • The Development of Standards of English
    The Development of Standards of English Raymond Hickey English Linguistics Campus Essen John Walker (1732-1807) Thomas Sheridan (1719-1788) Robert Lowth (1710-1787) Samuel Johnson (1709-1784) English in 18th century Britain The rise of prescriptivism and the development of the standard of English in 18th-century Britain: Dictionaries, grammars and works on elocution (the art of public speaking, later of accepted pronunciation) appeared in the second half of the 18th century. They were intended to fix the public usage of English. Some of these works are shown in the following table and more information on four of the major authors is given below. Samuel Johnson (1709-1784) English writer and lexicographer. Johnson was a major critic and scholar who was known both for his brilliant conversation and the quality of his writing. As a man of letters his influence on literature inhis day and later periods was considerable. His significance for linguistics lies in the fact that he compiled the first major monolingual dictionary of English, his Dictionary of the English language (1755),which was a model for all future lexicographers. The legacy of Samuel Johnson Johnson’s dictionary became the standard work of English lexicography because of its range, objectivity and use of quotations from major authors to back up definitions given. It was not until over a century later that it was superseded by the dictionary which was to become the Oxford English Dictionary. A New English Dictionary on Historical Principles A proposal was made by Richard Trench in 1857 to the Philological Society to design a new dictionary which would serve as a definitive work on the vocabulary of English with complete historical coverage.

  • A Word with Pizzazz!
    11 Learn when and how to enrich your prose with foreign words P55 pizzazz [pɪzˈæz ] [uncountable] informal something that has pizzazz is exciting and has a strong interesting style: A word with pizzazz! MAY 1ST, 2007 Q: Oh, how I would love to know where the expression “full of pizzazz” comes from! The phrase itself is full of pizzazz! Is it a Boston thing? Is it a 1940s and 1950s expression? A: The noun “pizzazz” (also spelled “pizazz” and “pazazz”) originated in the 1910s and originally meant an expert or an exemplar, according to Cassell’s Dictionary of Slang. (This was news to me too!) In the 1920s, the meaning evolved into style, glamour, or ostentation. By the 1930s, it was being used to mean energy or zest. I’d guess this is the meaning in the expression “full of pizzazz.” The word’s etymology is unknown, though the Oxford English Dictionary says it’s frequently attributed to Diana Vreeland, the late fashion maven. (Cassell’s Dictionary of Word and Phrase Origins is duBious about the Vreeland attribution.) The OED’s first published reference is from Harper’s Bazaar in 1937, the year Vreeland arrived at the magazine as a columnist. Here’s the citation: “Pizazz, to quote the editor of the Harvard Lampoon, is an indefinable dynamic quality, the je ne sais quoi of function; as for instance, adding Scotch puts pizazz in a drink.” Although its origin is unknown, “pizzazz” has echoes in “razzle” (a spree or a good time) and “razzmatazz” (showy, high-class, or an exclamation of pleasure).
