This classic of Shakespeare scholarship begins with a masterly introductory essay analysing and exemplifying the various categories of seexual and non-seexual bawdy expressions and allusions in Shakespeare’s plays and sonnets. The main body of the work consists of an alphabetical glossary of all words and phrases used in a seexual or scatological sense, with full explanations and cross-references.


Review

‘It reads as freshly today as it did fifty years ago, when it surprised everyone with its originality and daring, an intriguing blend of personal insight and solid detective-work. If ever a word-book deserved to be called a classic, it is this.’

David Crystal
