Sinopse
Lear is renowned for his humorous poetry, which he mostly presented in limericks, a poetic form that he helped to popularize.He also became famous for his numerous neologisms: “runcible spoon” is now found in English dictionaries.In 1846 he published A Book of Nonsense.This work was followed by Nonsense Songs, Stories, Botany and Alphabets (1871; it included the nonsense song The Owl and the Pussycat, written for the children of his patron, the Earl of Derby), More Nonsense, Pictures, Rhymes, Botany, etc.(1872), and Laughable Lyrics (1877).A transversal selection of the unique nonsensical humour of Lear is presented in this edition, together with his illustrations.
