Wfhile eighteenth-century efforts to stand-
ardize the English language have long been
studied—from Samuel Johnson’s to
grammar and elocution books of the period—
less well-known are the era’s popular collections
of odd slang, criminal argots, provincial dialects,
and nautical jargon. ^Strange delves
into how these published works presented the
supposed lexicons of the “common people” and
traces the way s that these languages, once
shunned and associated with outsiders, became
objects of fascination in printed glossaries—from
cjhe I7 (eyi (Ranting ^Dictionary to Francis Grose’s
* Classical Dictionary of the r ?ulgar Tongue—and in
novels, poems, and songs, including works by
Daniel Defoe, John Gray, Samuel Richardson,
Robert Burns, and others.
Janet Sorensen argues that the recognition
and recovery of outsider languages was part of
- a transition in the eighteenth century from an
aristocratic, exclusive body politic to a British
national community based on the rhetoric of
inclusion and liberty, as well as the revaluing
of a common British past, i hese representations
• of the vernacular made room for the “common
people” within national culture, but only after
representing their language as “strange.” Such
strange and estranged languages, even or espe-
. cially in their obscurity, came to be claimed as
British, making for complex imaginings of the
nation and those who composed it. Odd cant
languages, witty slang phrases, provincial terms
newly valued for their connection to British
history, or nautical jargon repurposed for senti— *
mental connections all toggle, in eighteenth-
century jest books, novels, and poems, between
the alluringly alien and familiarly British.
Shedding new light on the history of the
English language, ^Strange explores
how eighteenth—century British literature
transformed the patois attributed to those on
the margins into living symbols of the nation.
