Anglophile

This is an old revision of this page, as edited by KyleDD (Talk | contribs) at 23:04, August 6, 2010. It may differ significantly from current revision.

An Anglophile is someone who loves England and appreciates its historical significance.

Examples of Anglophilia

An Anglophile might...

  • insist that William Shakespeare was the most influential person of the second millennium.
  • admire the way the British stood alone against Nazi tyranny for two years, invented concepts such as the rule of law and freedom of speech, and have devised a tolerant society where people are judged on their merits not their color or religion.
  • recognize the contributions that Britain has made to science and literature far out of proportion to the size of its population.
  • salute the British for standing shoulder-to-shoulder with the United States for 65 years since World War 2.
