A Dictionary Of Modern English Usage
by H W Fowler
A Dictionary of Modern English Usage (1926), by Henry W. Fowler, is a style guide to British English usage, pronunciation, and writing. Ranging from plurals and literary technique to the distinctions among like words (homonyms, synonyms, etc. ), to foreign-term use, it became the standard for most style guides that followed — thus, the 1926 first edition remains in print despite the existence of the 1965 second edition, and the 1996 and 2004 printings of the third edition.

by Weaver, Richard M
Davis CA: Hermagoras Press, 1985. reprint. Softcover. Very Good/None. Softcover, 234 pages. clean, like new. The Ethics of Rhetoric argues for the essential moral nature of language, the reciprocal damage done to each when morality and language are separated, a damage which extends to our ability to think and pursue truth. Weaver examines Plato's Phaedrus, the Scopes Trial, and the rhetorical methods of Edmund Burke and Abraham Lincoln to flesh out this position. Record # 371951
