Abstract

This Kickshaws Special celebrates the 100th anniversary of the 1907 British Limerick Craze, and what better way to celebrate it than to present 100 limericks, one for each year? The limerick count includes each 5-line limerick, whether it stands alone or serves as a stanza in a longer poem. It does not include the older limericks quoted in the essays or the partial limericks in which one or more lines are left out on purpose for special effects.
