Why do we love to swear so much? Why do we get so offended when others do it? In this lively and amusing exploration of the various puzzles that surround swearing, philosopher Rebecca Roache argues that what makes swearing offensive is not really the words at all: the offensiveness lies in what we don’t say. The unspoken-and usually unconscious-inferences that speakers and listeners make about each other are key to explaining swearwords’ capacity to shock. Swearing is unique among etiquette breaches in that it is designed to convey disrespect-swearing packs more of a punch than failing to say "please." Roache helps listeners understand how swearing works, celebrating its power as a communicative tool and source of humor while also taking a close and serious look at specific words-those directed at women and women’s bodies, for example-that function in particular, complex ways. She also examines the often-hypocritical ways swearing can be punished or censored. Finally, Roache helps listeners appreciate that swearing isn’t always bad. When it’s not used offensively, it can foster social intimacy, can help people withstand pain, and might even help us curb our violent impulses.

Free Download For Honour’s Sake: The War of 1812 and the Brokering of an Uneasy Peace by Mark Zuehlke

In the Canadian imagination, the War of 1812 looms large. It was a war in which British and Indian troops prevailed in almost all of the battles, in which the Americans were unable to hold any of the land they fought for, in which a young woman named Laura Secord raced over the Niagara peninsula to warn of American plans for attack (though how she knew has never been discovered), and in which Canadian troops burned down the White House.
Competing American claims insist to this day that, in fact, it was they who were triumphant. But where does the truth lie? Somewhere in the middle, as is revealed in this major new reconsideration from one of Canada’s master historians. Drawing on never-before-seen archival material, Zuehlke paints a vibrant picture of the war’s major battles, vividly re-creating life in the trenches, the horrifying day-to-day maneuvering on land and sea, and the dramatic negotiations in the Flemish city of Ghent that brought the war to an unsatisfactory end for both sides.
