Description: |
A second volume of anti-economic etymological revaluation, playfully continuing the authors' search for a new mode of thinking about work. |
Synopsis: |
AS FEATURED IN THE OCCUPY WALL STREET PROTEST LIBRARYEverybody knows a brown-noser when they see one. But how about a freeter? A workbrickle? A jack? Can they tell downsizing from greybearding or brightsizing?With The Idler's Glossary (2008), Mark Kingwell and Joshua Glenn offered a spirited defense of leisure. As confirmed idlers themselves, they assured us their Glossary could provide ? everything you need to know about how to conduct a life." Today, however, as we recover from the worst global recession since 1929, the work-world is a very different place. In order to understand it better, our anti-capitalist etymologists are therefore putting down their cigars, picking up their shovels, and drudging out English from the ditch of corporate jargon. For anyone who's ever had to moil for high muckety-mucks, The Wage Slave's Glossary is essential reading? as the moral wit of Kingwell & Glenn is indispensable to the present age. |
