Download or read book A History of Cant and Slang Dictionaries written by Julie Coleman and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2008-11-20 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The second volume of Julie Coleman's entertaining and revealing history of the recording and uses of slang and criminal cant takes the story from 1785 to 1858, and explores their manifestations in the United States of America and Australia. During this period glossaries of cant were thrown into the shade by dictionaries of slang, which now covered a broad spectrum of non-standard English, including the language of thieves. Julie Coleman shows how Francis Grose's Dictionary of the Vulgar Tongue revolutionized the lexicography of the underworld. She explores the compilation and content of the earliest Australian and American slang glossaries, whose authors included the thrice-transported James Hardy Vaux and the legendary George Matsell, New York City's first chief of police, whose The Secret Language of Crime: The Rogue's Lexicon informed the script of Martin Scorcese's film Gangs of New York. Cant represented a tangible danger to life and property, but slang threatened to undermine good behaviour and social morality. Julie Coleman shows how and why they were at once repellent and seductive. Her fascinating account casts fresh light on language and life in some of the darker regions of Great Britain and the English-speaking world.

Download or read book The 1811 Dictionary of the Vulgar Tongue written by Francis Grose and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-06-28 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Description: A Dictionary of Buckish Slang, University Wit, and Pickpocket Eloquence Synopsis: The 1811 Dictionary of the Vulgar Tongue is a wonderful and hilarious compendium of street jargon, phrases of an indelicate nature, and other expressions of the riff-raff, university students, men of fashion, and other unsavory types popularly in use in and around London at the beginning of the Nineteenth Century. This is one of the most controversial dictionaries ever produced and not for the faint-hearted. Totally out of line with today's standards of propriety and political correctness, Captain Grose's Dictionary unapologetically takes aim at every human foible, quirk and oddity. Nothing is spared. If you love the English language, if you are curious about the true origins of much of the slang and street talk in use today, if you are not easily shocked, this is the Dictionary for you. This edition preserves the original spellings found in Grose's work and include his own interesting methods of censoring words even he found to be objectionable. This is NOT the Kings English! THIS IS NOT A HASTILY ASSEMBLED SCAN OR "FACSIMILE EDITION" OF THIS WORK. EVERY LETTER AND WORD OF THE ORIGINAL HAS BEEN RESET AND CAREFULLY PROOFED FOR ACCURACY.
