Pub Name History: Thirty Popular Pub Name Origins【電子書籍】[ Albert Jack ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>The pub was once described by seventeenth-century diarist Samuel Pepys as the ‘heart of England while the church is its soul’. These days I would say he is only half right. There remain over 56,000 pubs in Great Britain, half of which are filled with youngsters who play loud music on a jukebox that sounds like somebody is hitting his lawnmower with a hammer, while the next-door neighbour shouts at him over the fence. The other half, however, are the perfect place to while away an afternoon with a pint and fine conversation while quietly contemplating what to do next. Well, that’s what I do.</p> <p>The pub histories told in this collection are some of my favourite pubs and are extracts from my popular book The Old Dog and Duck (There are many more histories in there.) So take a seat in your favourite armchair by the fireside and join me on a pub crawl along memory lane and around history corner. We may be some time.</p> <p>Contents</p> <p>1 ?

The Old Dog and Duck The Secret Meanings of Pub Names【電子書籍】[ Albert Jack ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>This is a book for everyone who has ever wondered why pubs should be called <strong>The Cross Keys</strong>, <strong>The Dew Drop Inn</strong> or <strong>The Hope and Anchor</strong>. You'll be glad to know that there are very good - strange and memorable - reasons behind them all.</p> <p>After much research about (and in) pubs, Albert Jack brings together the stories behind pub names to reveal how they offer fascinating and subversive insights on our history, customs, attitudes and jokes in just the same way that nursery rhymes do. <strong>The Royal Oak</strong>, for instance, commemorates the tree that hid Charles II from Cromwell's forces after his defeat at Worcester; <strong>The Bag of Nails</strong> is a corruption of the Bacchanals, the crazed followers of Bacchus, the god of wine and drunkenness; <strong>The Cat and the Fiddle</strong> a mangling of Catherine La Fidele and a guarded gesture of support for Henry VIII's first, Catholic, wife Catherine of Aragon; plus many, many more.</p> <p>Here too are even more facts about everything from ghosts to drinking songs to the rules of cribbage and shove hapenny, showing that, ultimately, the story of pub history is really the story of our own popular history</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,021円
