Book First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Very Good/Very Good. First Edition. A copy that has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. We all use euphemisms. We ask for directions to the "ladies room" or convey the news that someone has recently "passed away." In fact, euphemisms have existed throughout recorded history: they are used by preliterate peoples, and have probably been around since human language first developed. And th e same is true of offensive language, or "dysphemisms"--words used as weapo ns against others, or as release valves for anger and frustration. In this fascinating study, Keith Allan and Kate Burridge examine the linguistic, social, and psychological aspects of this intriguing universal practice. They cover the many shapes euphemism can take, from circumlocution and acronym to hyperbole and understatement, metaphor, and even technical jargon (many medical terms ultimately derive from euphemisms--stool, for instance, comes from "go to the stool," and diabetes comes from a Greek word meaning "to go a lot," since people with diabetes urinate frequently). They discuss the many euphemisms and dysphemisms for tabooed body parts (there are, the authors point out, at least 1,200 terms for vagina and 1,000 for penis), bodily functions, death, and disease. They describe euphemisms used to avoid religious blasphemy, from the archaic "egad" and "zounds" and "gadzooks" to the modern equivalents, such as "Jiminy Cricket" and "golly" or "gosh." They even discuss the political use of euphemism; for instance, when at war, to shield the public from upsetting details (or shield politicians from the voter).

Black Boards & Black Cloth. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. First Printing. Black Boards & Black Cloth. Fine/Fine. First Printing. Hardback. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. 263 pages; 5 p. index; 12 pages of References; from the Introductory Remarks: "The principal purpose of this book is to give an expository and explanatory account of the kinds of expressions people use for two quite different purposes: euphemism and dysphemism: Euphemism is characterized by avoidance language and evasive expression, that is,."expression that seeks to avoid being offensive." Dysphemism is, roughly speaking, the contrary of euphemism. Investigating dysphemism, we examine the verbal resources for being offensive, being abusive, or just letting off steam. .because our background is linguistics, .we.show that euphemism and dysphemism are not merely a response to taboo: they also function where Speaker avoids using, or, on the contrary, deliberately decides to use, a distasteful expression.".
