| Synopsis: |
Robert Graves' tongue-in-cheek treatise laments the decline of swearing and foul language in England and looks back with nostalgia at the glory days of oaths and blasphemies.Written when Graves was teaching at Cairo University in 1926, a time when censorship in England was still in full sway, "Lars Porsena" is an impassionate defence of the foul-mouthed in literature and a resounding raspberry in the face of hypocrisy and puritanism. |
