Beschreibung

The Elements of Style is a prescriptive American English writing style guide in numerous editions. The original was composed by William Strunk Jr., in 1918, and published by Harcourt, in 1920, comprising eight &quote;elementary rules of usage&quote;, ten &quote;elementary principles of composition&quote;, &quote;a few matters of form&quote;, a list of 49 &quote;words and expressions commonly misused&quote;, and a list of 57 &quote;words often misspelled&quote;. E. B. White greatly enlarged and revised the book for publication by Macmillan in 1959. That was the first edition of the so-called &quote;Strunk & White&quote;, which Time named in 2011 as one of the 100 best and most influential books written in English since 1923.
