Description:
Oxford: The Clarendon Press, 1960. Reprint. Very Good +/very good +. Based on information collected from 5,000 children in England, Scotland and Wales, this volume is a disclosure of the lore and language natural to the modern schoolchild when out of school. It is a record of his strange and primitive culture, including seasonal customs, initiation rites, superstitious practices and beliefs, innumerable rhymes and chants, catcalls and retorts, stock jokes, ruderies, riddles, slang-epithets, nicknames and the traditional juvenile argot which continues to flourish in the street and playground largely unknown and certainly unheeded by the adult world. This study is the first full survey of its subject to have been made. The historical annotation tghroughout the work reveals that many of the formulas children use today are the same as they have been for generations; and the comparative lore which has been assembled from other countries, particularly the United States, establishes that much of the…

Description:
Oxford: Oxford at the Clarendon Press, 1960. Hardcover. xix, 417p., second printing after the '59 first issue, hardbound in 0UP's inspired black cloth boards gilt and enclosed in the pictorial dust jacket. An excellent copy, with a couple flaws: firstly, a gap-line standing between title page and frontis (a line map); this gap is about one sixteenth of an inch wide with a hint of fabric showing, casing remains soundly holding the textblock, nothing at risk, aesthetic damage. Secondly, a not particularly winsome ownership w/address on front free endpaper. Thirdly, the (unclipped) dust jacket is mildly rubbed and edgeworn. All in all, a good to very good exemplar of a handsome book, with delightful content.
