this lively gambol through the his¬
tory of quotations and quotation books,
Gary Saul Morson traces our endur¬
ing fascination with the words of oth¬
ers. Ranging from the remote past to
the present, he explores the formation,
development, and significance of quota¬
tions, focusing on the verbal museums
in which they have been collected and
displayed
—
commonplace books, treasur¬
ies, and anthologies. In his trademark
clear, witty, and provocative style, Morson
invites readers to share his delight in the
shortest literary genre.
The author defines what makes a quote
quotable, as well as the (unexpected) dif¬
ferences between quotation and misquo¬
tation. He describes a continuum from
quotation to partial quotation to one s
own words, showing how quotations
form, transform, and may eventually be¬
come idioms. Using amusing examples of
famous last words and epitaphs, Morson
also demonstrates how authorship and oc¬
casion can be an intrinsic part of a quota¬
tion. In closing, he considers anthologies
by great authors who have spun original
literary works out of utterances made first
by others.
CONTINUED FROM FRONT FLAP
Weaving in hundreds of intriguing quota¬
tions, common and unusual, Morson ex¬
plores how the words of others constitute
essential elements in the formation of a
culture and of the self within that culture.
In so doing, he provides a living demon¬
stration
ofthat
very process, captured in
the pages of this extraordinary new book.
