About This Book

Raccolta di vocaboli, proverbi e modi di dire tratti dall'ambiente marinaro, accompagnata da un proemio e da dialoghi che ritraggono coste, tempeste, naufragi e gesti di soccorso. Mescola osservazioni linguistiche a racconti e aneddoti locali per mostrare come il lessico e i detti nascano dall'esperienza quotidiana degli abitanti del litorale, mettendo in luce il rapporto pratico e morale tra comunità costiera e mare.
