This is a major new edition of The Oxford Dictionary of Quotations, Oxford's flagship quotations dictionary. Now with 20,000 quotations, this collection continues to provide unrivalled coverage of traditional areas such as classical literature and Shakespeare, and now has new features such as in-text panels for Advertising Slogans, Film Lines, Epitaphs and Misquotations among others, a thematic index, and biographical cross-references to encourage browsing.

Synopsis
This new edition of "The Oxford Dictionary of Quotations" offers a broad and up-to-date coverage of quotations available today. Now with 20,000 quotations arranged by author, this is Oxford's largest quotations dictionary. As well as quotations from traditional sources, and with improved coverage of world religions and classical Greek and Latin literature, this dictionary of quotations now covers areas such as proverbs and nursery rhymes. For the first time there are special sections for advertising slogans, epitaphs, film lines, and misquotations, which bring together topical and related quotes, and allow you to browse through the best quotations on a given subject. In this new fifth edition there is enhanced accessibility with a new thematic index to help you find the best quotes on a chosen subject, more in-depth details of the earliest traceable source, an extensive keyword index, and biographical cross-references, so you will easily be able to find quotations for all occasions, and identify who said what, where, and when. This book is intended for a wide range of people such as academics, writers, and speakers, as well as the general public.
