S

Shakespeare
OA "It turns out that a good handful of rappers use a greater
vocabulary than Shakespeare did, for the same sized block
of lyrics." ( Paragraph 1)
OB "and the fact that whereas there are many good ways of
estimating his vocabulary from concordances and good
complete editions, the same was not true for his peers.
Shakespeare was just better documented and his
vocabulary was easier to measure." ( Paragraph 7-8)
OC "So what is it that fascinates people about vocabulary
size? It seems to offer a neat quantitative measure for
literary quality. But this does not stand up to scrutiny." (
Paragraph 14)
OD “The good thing about busting the Shakespeare
vocabulary myth is that we can now avoid that particular
dead-end in working out what makes his use of language
so remarkable and explore more promising ones, such as
the abundance and creativity of his metaphors" (
Paragraph 15)
