Review: If you have a cantankerous undeserving oik to deal with,; or a goatish hell-governed horn-beast to castigate; or a musty motley-innded malignancy to reprimand then this masterwork is for you. The insult generator comprises three single-word dictionaries mounted one below the other in a ring-bound hardback binder. The top and centre dictionaries contain object jectives and subject jectives, and the Botttom dictionary is a dictionary of nouns. You create your appropriate insult to fit the occasion by selecting your choice of subjective or objective adjectives to add to your choice of noun so as to perfectly describe the sanctimonious sheep-biting starve-lackey receiving your rebuke. The meanings of each word are written on the back of the selected adjective and noun so as to remove all ambiguity from your insult. The insults you generate put the antagonising pestiferous puke-stocking pig-nut firmly in their place and at the same time generate unstoppable derisive hen-clucking and donkey-brays from the pig-squealing pusillanimous pot-headed loathly leptus-leering lop-eyed lewdsters looking on – all thanks to the clever brilliant wit of The Bard. Cicero - eat your heart out you cantankerous lilly-livered cord-wangler. Five stares.

    Description: This entertaining insult generator takes inspiration from the English language's greatest wordsmith, collecting hundreds of the bards most powerfully insulting words in a fun, flip book format. Just add 'thou' before any of the 157,464 different insult combinations and you'll be ready to set dullards and miscreants in their place. From 'apish bald-pated abomination' to 'cuckoldly dull-brained blockhead' to 'obscene rump-fed hornbeast,' each insult can be chosen at random or customised to fit any situation in which a literary smack down is needed. Featuring an informative introduction on Shakespearean wit and notes on which terms are nonce words (words Shakespeare only used once in all of his writings) and terms that were likely coined by Shakespeare himself, this collection is sure to sharpen the tongue and wit of any student of the bard or insult aficionado.

  • Waterstones The Anatomy of Insults in Shakespeare’s World

    Price: £28.99

    Brand: Waterstones

     

    Description: The Anatomy of Insults in Shakespeare's World explores Shakespeare's complex art of insults and shows how the playwright set abusive words at the heart of many of his plays. It provides valuable insights on a key aspect of Shakespeare's work that has been little explored to date. Focusing on the most memorable scenes of insult, abusive characters and insulting effects in the plays, the volume shifts how readers understand and read Shakespeare's insults. Chapters analyze the spectacular rhetoric of insult in Henry IV, Troilus and Cressida and Timon of Athens; the 'skirmishes of wit' in Much Ado about Nothing and A Midsummer Night's Dream; insult and duelling codes in Romeo and Juliet, As You Like It and Twelfth Night, the complex relationships between slander and insult in Much Ado about Nothing and Measure for Measure; the taming of the tongue in Richard III and The Taming of the Shrew, the trauma of insults in Othello, The Merchant of Venice and Cymbeline and insult beyond words in Henry V and King lear. Grasping insult as a specific speech act, the volume explores the issues of verbal violence and verbal shields and the importance of reception and interpretation in matters of insult. It offers a panorama of the Elizabethan politics of insult and redefines Shakespeare's drama as a theatre of insults.

    Description: Let's face it. Hearing people talk about Shakespeare can be pretty annoying. Particularly if you feel like you don't understand him. When people talk about which of Shakespeare's plays they like best, or what they thought of so-and-so's performance, they often treat Shakespeare like membership in some exclusive club. If you don't get him, if you don't go to see his plays, you're not truly educated or literate. You might be tempted to ask whether the millions of people who say they love Shakespeare actually know what they're talking about, or are they just sheep? No Fear Shakespeare: A Companion gives you the straight scoop on everything you really need to know about Shakespeare, including: What's so great about Shakespeare? How did Shakespeare get so smart? Five mysteries of Shakespeare's life a?? and why they matter Did someone else write Shakespeare's plays? Where did Shakespeare get his ideas?
