Or the Future of Swearing And Improper Language 

by

Robert GravesLars Porsena (1972)
Or the Future of Swearing And Improper Language
A non fiction book by Robert Graves

 
Equal parts history and absurdity, this tongue-in-cheek treatise laments the decline of swearing and foul language in England and looks back with nostalgia at the glory days of oaths and blasphemies. Written when censorship in England was still in full sway, this was an impassionate defense of the foul-mouthed in literature and a resounding attack of hypocrisy and Puritanism.
