Descripción del libro usado "The best english"
|
|
Following the author''s highly successful Good English and Better English this book is a study of Great Literature; its meanings and sources, and above all its techniques. Valuable not merely for the sensible criticisms that he makes, not only for the delightful quotations that he introduces, but also for his common sense.
Harld Nicolson in the Observer.
Words, properly used, are not mere counters. They communicate not only with our minds but also with our hearts and our emotions.
So writes G. H. Vallins in this third and last volume in his trilogy on the English language. In the Best English he explors with the reader the immensely exciting field of Literature as an art. Step by step hi dissects and explains the many uses of language in poetry, drama and prose, quoting profusely from sources as varied as Shakespeare and P. G. Wodehouse, the Authorised Version of the Bible and Neville Cardus, Chaucer and Dylan Thomas. Different chapters cover Vocabulary, imagery and Allusio, Rhythm in Prose and Verse and finally the all-important topic of Style.
The best english can add enormously to the knowledge and appreciation of the treasures of literature.
