AUTHOR AND SUBJECT INDEX 309 WORD INDEX 317
Political Correctness is now an everyday phrase and part of the modern
mindset. Everyone thinks they know what it means, but its own meaning
constantly shifts. Its surprising origins have led to it becoming integrated
into contemporary culture in ways that are both idealistic and ridiculous.
Originally grounded in respect for difference and sensitivity to suffering, it
has often become a distraction and even a silencer of genuine issues,
provoking satire and parody. In this carefully researched, thought-provoking
book, Geoffrey Hughes examines the trajectory of political correctness and
its impact on public life.
Exploring the origins, progress, content, and style of PC, Hughes journey
leads us through authors as diverse as Chaucer, Shakespeare and Swift;
Philip Larkin, David Mamet, and J.M. Coetzee; from nursery rhymes to Spike
Lee films. Focusing on the historical, semantic, and cultural aspects of
political correctness, this outstanding and unique work will intrigue anyone
interested in this ongoing debate.
