Churchill the phrase forger

Pages 161-174 | Published online: 05 Jun 2009
 

Abstract

The famous phrases that adorn Churchill's speeches during the climactic phase of his career, 1938–1942, are not novel coinages. Some he borrowed from other politicians or writers; many are recurring ideas and locutions of his own, of which he gave polished, definitive versions at a critical juncture.
