Book excerpt: Booklist Top of the List Reference Source The heir and successor to Eric Partridge's brilliant magnum opus, The Dictionary of Slang and Unconventional English, this two-volume New Partridge Dictionary of Slang and Unconventional English is the definitive record of post WWII slang. Containing over 60,000 entries, this new edition of the authoritative work on slang details the slang and unconventional English of the English-speaking world since 1945, and through the first decade of the new millennium, with the same thorough, intense, and lively scholarship that characterized Partridge's own work. Unique, exciting and, at times, hilariously shocking, key features include: unprecedented coverage of World English, with equal prominence given to American and British English slang, and entries included from Australia, New Zealand, Canada, India, South Africa, Ireland, and the Caribbean emphasis on post-World War II slang and unconventional English published sources given for each entry, often including an early or significant example of the term’s use in print. hundreds of thousands of citations from popular literature, newspapers, magazines, movies, and songs illustrating usage of the headwords dating information for each headword in the tradition of Partridge, commentary on the term’s origins and meaning New to this edition: A new preface noting slang trends of the last five years Over 1,000 new entries from the US, UK and Australia New terms from the language of social networking Many entries now revised to include new dating, new citations from written sources and new glosses The New Partridge Dictionary of Slang and Unconventional English is a spectacular resource infused with humour and learning – it’s rude, it’s delightful, and it’s a prize for anyone with a love of language.

This book was released on 2018-05-11 with total page 5135 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Routledge Dictionary of Modern American Slang offers the ultimate record of modern, post WW2 American Slang. The 25,000 entries are accompanied by citations that authenticate the words as well as offer examples of usage from popular literature, newspapers, magazines, movies, television shows, musical lyrics, and Internet user groups. Etymology, cultural context, country of origin and the date the word was first used are also provided. In terms of content, the cultural transformations since 1945 are astounding. Television, computers, drugs, music, unpopular wars, youth movements, changing racial sensitivities and attitudes towards sex and sexuality are all substantial factors that have shaped culture and language. This new edition includes over 500 new headwords collected with citations from the last five years, a period of immense change in the English language, as well as revised existing entries with new dating and citations. No term is excluded on the grounds that it might be considered offensive as a racial, ethnic, religious, sexual or any kind of slur. This dictionary contains many entries and citations that will, and should, offend. Rich, scholarly and informative, The Routledge Dictionary of Modern American Slang and Unconventional English is an indispensable resource for language researchers, lexicographers and translators.

Nicky arrives in Karachi to rescue his mate Kamran and eventually meets up with drug baron, Jamil Khan, the only man who can make the rescue possible, a man who feels strongly about growing opium in the traditional way - without fertiliser. But before any rescue attempt, Jamal Khan needs a promise from Nicky; he must take out the competitor back in the UK who is dealing in inferior drugs in nearby Ilford. The rescue is successful and back in the UK Nicky and his mates prepare to fulfil the promise to Jamal Khan. But things don’t go quite as Nicky had hoped and the gangs of Ilford invade Walthamstow and there is hell on Hoe Street...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cultural Studies -- Ethnomusicology Why would a punk band popular only in Indonesia cut songs in no other language than English? If you're rapping in Tanzania and Malawi, where hip hop has a growing audience, what do you rhyme in? Swahili? Chichewa? English? Some combination of these? Global Pop, Local Language examines how performers and audiences from a wide range of cultures deal with the issue of language choice and dialect in popular music. Related issues confront performers of Latin music in the U.S., drum and bass MCs in Toronto, and rappers, rockers, and traditional folk singers from England and Ireland to France, Germany, Belarus, Nepal, China, New Zealand, Hawaii, and beyond. For pop musicians, this issue brings up a number of complex questions. Which languages or dialects will best express my ideas? Which will get me a record contract or a bigger audience? What does it mean to sing or listen to music in a colonial language? A foreign language? A regional dialect? A native language? Examining popular music from a range of world cultures, the authors explore these questions and use them to address a number of broader issues, including the globalization of the music industry, the problem of authenticity in popular culture, the politics of identity, multiculturalism, and the emergence of English as a dominant world language. The chapters are written in a highly accessible style by scholars from a variety of fields, including ethnomusicology, popular music studies, anthropology, culture studies, literary studies, folklore, and linguistics. Harris M. Berger is associate professor of music at Texas A&M University. He is the author of Metal, Rock and Jazz: Perception and the Phenomenology of Musical Experience (1999). Michael Thomas Carroll is professor of English at New Mexico Highlands University. He is the author of Popular Modernity in America: Experience, Technology, Mythohistory (2000) and co-editor, with Eddie Tafoya, of Phenomenological Approaches to Popular Culture (2000).

Book excerpt: Darkly comic, stylish and violent,Vinnie Got Blown Awayoffers a radical contrast from the British tradition of a murder mystery among the middle classes. It mixes without discrimination among black, white and Asian communities; it follows their speech patterns: cockney and Caribbean unite. It demonstrates the resilience in these communities, an ability to survive against all outside pressures and values.Nicky Burkett finds his childhood friend Vinnie dead at the bottom of a tower block. He and his mates have a code of conduct which makes revenge inevitable. They have to find the villains - much more serious criminals than themselves - and then they have to take them on. The result is a hilarious hybrid of Elmore Leonard and Quentin Tarantino, with dialogue that crackles off the page and a wonderfully authentic sense of place.Brilliantly reviewed on its initial release in 1995,Vinnie Got Blown Awayholds a unique place in the British crime fiction canon, and is ripe for rediscovery by a new generation of readers.‘Audacious and outrageous.’Daily Telegraph‘Jaunty, exhilarating and original, with a feeling for street life that renders it sexy and poignant.’Literary Review‘A fast, funny trawl through the territory of London's new outlaw underclass. It is a masterly piece of storytelling.’Financial Times‘A short, sharp shock of a novel.’GQ‘Funny, violent and vivid.’Sunday Times

Book excerpt: Nicky Burkett wasn't expecting a dead MP on his doorstep. Nor was he planning on the world and his wife having something to say about it. Next thing he knows, Nicky's got to take the heat from the Old Bill and every Tom, Dick and Harry; and his missus ain't happy, either. Nicky is supposed to be keeping clean - he can't afford not to. But the dirty trail of revenge on the posh slopes of Wengen, combined with Mickey Cousins' lot and their penchant for aggro, make it pretty hard to resist being drawn into the fray...

As he navigates the challenges of adolescence, Nicholas finds solace in his passion for cricket and football, even during the societal upheaval of the 1960s. Thrust into the heart of tumultuous events, Nicholas confronts the gritty realities of factory work and political protests, facing life-altering consequences that will shape his future. A Norfolk Man is a story of growing up, resilience, and the enduring power of home.
