{"product_id":"1811-dictionary-of-the-vulgar-tongue","title":"1811 Dictionary of the Vulgar Tongue","description":"The Georgian \"Profanisaurus\".\nFrom the 1790s to the 1820s, numerous editions of the Dictionary of the Vulgar Tongue were published. Looking at the slang and vernacular language of the time, this dictionary pre-dated Roger Mellie's best-selling Profanisaurus by a good 200 years. Reprinted here, it covers the rude, the crude and the downright vulgar.\nLearn how the Georgians and early Victorians would insult each other and find out how some of today's words and derivations have come about. But most of all, just dip in and see how our ancestors considered and talked about such subjects as sex and the workings of the human body.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0900123346\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: PKV.0900123346.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Max Harris, fwd.\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: A well-loved companion.
