This title, first published in 1979, is a glossary of the bawdy
vocabulary that was used in Renaissance Drama. One of the primary
functions of this gloss of literary bawdy is to interpret
imaginative uses of the language rather than simply record the
generally accepted uses and meanings, with its principal task to
make the dialogue of the plays more intelligible to the reader.
With examples of bawdy language used in the works of Shakespeare,
Ben Jonson and John Webster amongst many others, this title will be
of great interest to students of literature and performance
studies.
