Cosa c'è in un nome? Molto più di quanto si possa sospettare a prima vista, perché i nomi sono immersi nella storia e nel mito e hanno molto da raccontarci sul nostro passato, sulle nostre convinzioni, persino sui tratti della nostra personalità. Ora completamente aggiornato per la sua seconda edizione, con 150 nuove voci, The Penguin Dictionary of First Names esamina attentamente oltre 5 stelle esempi, che vanno dal familiare al relativamente oscuro, tratti da tutte le parti del mondo di lingua inglese. Dettagliato e informativo, è una lettura essenziale per i futuri genitori e per chiunque sia incuriosito dalla storia legata a ogni nome.

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. What's in a name? Rather more than you might at first suspect, for names are steeped in history and myth and have much to tell us about our past, our beliefs - even our personality traits.

Detailed and informative, it is essential reading for expectant parents and for anyone who is intrigued by the story attached to each name. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. Codice articolo GOR001263176
