A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Ambrose Bierce was an American author, critic, and journalist. Bierce also served in the Union Army during the American Civil War and much of his work is based off his experiences. Bierce's most famous work is The Devil's Dictionary, a satirical dictionary that was published in 1906. In the years since its publication, The Devil's Dictionary has often been quoted and translated and is widely considered to be one of the greatest satirical works in American literature.

Présentation de l'éditeur

The Devil's Dictionary was begun in a weekly paper in 1881, and was continued in a desultory way at long intervals until 1906. In that year a large part of it was published in covers with the title The Cynic's Word Book, a name which the author had not the power to reject or happiness to approve.
