Mr Bligh's Bad Language: Passion, Power and Theatre on the Bounty - Canto original series
Dening, Greg (University of Melbourne)
Captain Bligh and the mutiny on the Bounty have become proverbial in their capacity to evoke the extravagant and violent abuse of power. But William Bligh was one of the least violent disciplinarians in the British navy. It is this paradox which inspired Greg Dening to ask why the mutiny took place. Part of the key lies in the curious puzzle of Mr Bligh's bad language.
