is what young
members of the Gilded Generation (born
1822—1842) did when they lost a battle in
the Civil War. A century and a half later,
selfies are what young members of the
Millennial Generation (born 1982—200-4)
post on the Internet to win attention for
themselves, with the hope of making the
world a better place. Going back even
beyond skedaddle to Jefferson’s unalienable
Republican Generation (born 17 42—1766),
this book identifies more than 130 key
words that reveal the distinctive character
and attitudes of the different generations.
The book pays special attention to the
generations still with us--the gung ho G.l.
Generation (born 1901—1924), bobbysoxers
of the Silent Generation (born 1925—1942),
hippies of the Boom Generation (born
1943—1980), slackers of Generation X (born
1961—1981), and the Millenniafs, so busy
posting ROMO, YOLO and LOL that they are
awkward when face to face.
Each generation, Allan Metcalf argues, is
characterized by certain words that are
particular to its unique place in history and
its attitude toward that place. Some words
belong to the generation alone, like swell
for the G.I.s., groovy for the Boomers֊
The majority, however, are gifts of a
generation to our common vocabulary.
The Silents, for example, were the first to
be known as teenagers; the G.l. Generation
first to have boyfriends and girlfriends; and
the Millennials first to friend and unfriend
online. Written for anyone interested in
language or history, From Slcedadd/e
Se/f/e offers a unique look at American
culture and the words that have come to
define it. Y
