Subject: The use of swearing in film
Hello,
We have a student who is researching a project on the use of swearing,
profanities and taboo language in film, in particular in the film
Trainspotting and especially that 4 letter old English word we often
hear these days and spelt ****
Initial research has found several leads, including some from Google and
books on swearing in our own collection - I'm just wondering if anyone
can suggest other sources.
Any and all suggestions will be most appreciated,
Regards,
Vivienne Towler
