Brewer’s Dictionary Of Phrase & Fable

  • Brewer's Dictionary Of Phrase & Fable

  • Attribution

  • Publication Details

    Book, 17th ed. / rev. by John Ayto, Collins, 2005

  • Description

    Brewer’s Dictionary of Phrase and Fable is one of the world’s best-loved reference books. To complete this rich mix of information, Brewer and his subsequent editors have added an extraordinary and enticing miscellany of general knowledge—lists of patron saints, terms in heraldry, regimental nicknames, public house names, the principal English horse-races and famous last words. This first new Brewer’s of the 21st century maintains and respects the book’s 135-year-old tradition, while offering a wealth of fascinating new material to reflect the ‘phrase and fable’ of a changing world.

The Oxford Dictionary Of Phrase And Fable

  • The Oxford Dictionary Of Phrase And Fable

  • Attribution

    edited by Elizabeth Knowles

  • Publication Details

    Book, Oxford University Press, 2000

  • Description

    We learn, for instance, not only that “The Land of the Rising Sun” refers to Japan, but also that the phrase is a translation of Japanese Nippon (nichi “the sun” and pon “the source”). From “Barbie Doll” to “the Big Bang Theory,” “Every Dog has His Day,” and “Seven-League Boots,” The Oxford Dictionary of Phrase and Fable is a kaleidoscopic reference work on the thousands of colorful words and phrases we use every day.
