Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a fascinating glimpse into the criminal underworld of 18th-century England. The author compiled a comprehensive dictionary of slang terms used by thieves, beggars, and other members of this marginalized community. Through this unique vocabulary, the reader gains access to a world rarely explored in traditional historical accounts. The dictionary reveals not only the practicalities of criminal activity, but also the social hierarchies, rituals, and beliefs that shaped this clandestine world. From the "high tobers," the most cunning highwaymen, to the "lully priggers," the most desperate beggars, the reader encounters a complex web of social relationships and survival strategies. The book's insights into the language and culture of the criminal underworld provide a valuable window into a forgotten aspect of British history. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Codice articolo 9781527756083_0
