About this product

Product Information

This new edition of The Oxford Dictionary of Quotations offers a broad and up-to-date coverage of quotations available today. Now with 20,000 quotations arranged by author, this is Oxford's largest quotations dictionary. As well as quotations from traditional sources, and with improved coverage of world religions and classical Greek and Latin literature, this dictionary of quotations now covers areas such as proverbs and nursery rhymes. For the first time there are special sections for advertising slogans, epitaphs, film lines, and misquotations, which bring together topical and related quotes, and allow you to browse through the best quotations on a given subject. In this new fifth edition there is enhanced accessibility with a new thematic index to help you find the best quotes on a chosen subject, more in-depth details of the earliest traceable source, an extensive keyword index, and biographical cross-references, so you will easily be able to find quotations for all occasions, and identify who said what, where, and when. This book is intended for a wide range of people such as academics, writers, and speakers, as well as the general public.
