Fakta
Gnomologia is a book best suited to be kept on a coffee table and strives to explain many gnomological expressions. It comes from an ancient Greek word, known to have been used by Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, Hippocrates and others.
It was a popular literary genre in the Middle Ages and Late Antiquity.
In Simplified English: Word/s used to convey something other than the true meaning of the word/s.
Does that 'tickle your fancy'?
The book is written primarily for teenagers about to join the world of work and for anyone else who may be interested in learning more about the English language. Packed with wit, wisdom, and a dash of nostalgia, Gnomologia is a brilliant conversation-starter and a vital key to the heart of British vernacular.
