Negative Positive
Title: one of my faves
Review: Like Montaigne's earthy Essays, but more witty and ironic like Erasmus, sharp and scathing like Senecca, funny and entertaining like Rabelais etc.The preface suggest that Burton (aka Elephantus Jr.) spent a long time in the Vatican library sourcing obscure and horded texts. Reading this book is like a classical education on smartassedness.
