Sobre este artículo
London: Oxford at the Claredon Press, 1926. First Edition. Very Good. First edition, first printing. Bound in near-contemporary half-leather over cloth, recently rebacked. Very Good. Several small edge tears to pages, light foxing to prelims and terminals, light worming to textblock edge. A style guide to British English usage, pronunciation and writing, colloquially referred to as Fowler's Usage, which became the standard for other style guides to writing in English. Immensely influential, this first edition remains in print to this day.
Sinopsis
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.
