This study breaks new ground by looking at the words of Churchill
in his writing and speeches and by focusing on his language over
his six decades in the House of Commons, especially in his speeches
there recorded in Hansard and his crucial speeches during the
crisis of 1940. The method is to analyze or read closely the
language of Churchill, particularly in the texts of his speeches,
but also in contexts, including the responses to him by and the
exchange with his fellow Members of Parliament. Churchill, who won
the Nobel Prize in Literature, is a figure key to the history of
the world and not simply in Britain, the Commonwealth and the
United States. Churchill, like Shakespeare, is a master of
language, a controversial figure who was all too human, but someone
who stood up for freedom and democracy and against tyranny and
totalitarian regimes. His words helped to shape the world and
preserved liberty.
