Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Volume I completes almost 10 years of extensive research into colloquial and figurative English. The series, Most Comprehensive Origins of Clich s, Proverbs and Figurative Expressions is on the cutting edge of research of both the origins and the continuing evolution of English sayings, idioms and expressions, delving back in time to determine the most probable way the expressions began, following their path through the changes of the ages, and noting current trends of changing connotations. It even recalls some phrases from the past which are now antiquated, while picking up on others which are so fresh that they have barely been introduced. Better than any other printed work available today, it expounds on each entry and gives detailed results on years of study of the English spoken and written jargon, not only in America, but in the U.K. and Australasia, as well as numerous foreign expressions commonly used by English speaking journalists, authors and the general public. These three volumes contain the largest work of its type in print today, and a separate index book is being released simultaneously to this volume tying them all together, giving fingertip access to well over 4,000 entries. It is truly a unique work, and will set a high bar for future work in this field. The previous volumes have been included in libraries across America, and have received rave reviews from teachers, ministers, newspaper reporters and many others. The original volume has been accepted for a reference for a Doctorate Degree at a major university and to teach English as a second language, as well as being a conversation piece while entertaining company.…
