A propos de cet article

For Fleecestreet's Improved Pig Latin Grammar, Will Cheney took on the voice of Jason AugustusFleecestreet to add further critical commentary to A Pamphlet in the Four Basic Dialects of Pig Latin (1950) by Brigadier General Cyclops Stonebone. Fleecestreet, a long-suffering scholar and educator,writes, "the works of the late General Cyclops Stonebone (1870 - 1953), though nowadays largely discredited as linguistics, have lain so long on the shelves of our school libraries that his classifications and nomenclature have come to be accepted as classic," (pp. 3-4). This item is the final work on Pig Latin by Cheney and was printed a full thirteen years after Stonebone's Pamphlet introduced Southern California (and the world) to Cheney’s Pig Latin scholarship. Miniature book, 2.5 inches by 1.75 inches 30, [4] pp. Title page printed within a ruled border.With bibliography and index. Quarter brown calf, marbled paper over boards, spine titled in gilt. A fine copy. One of 200 copies, letterpress printed by Cheney at the Clark Library. Bound by Bela Blau. “Cheney’s typography stands out in his miniature books. "Of the fine printers of the Southern California Renaissance, Cheney is arguably the most unusual," wrote Bruce Whiteman. "He is devoted to type. His obsessions are thankfully tempered by a fine sense of irony, and he clearly knows very well that a life devoted to printing small editions of small books about recondite subjects (Pig Latin, pocket knives, Greek, etc.) is an odd life indeed, however fulfilling" (Bradbury, p. 47).
