Common Errors in English Usage Dictionary

Fair in Love and War
For many people,
the word fair brings to mind the aphorism “all is fair in love and war.”
We have been using some variation of this saying for quite some time,
although, as with many such expressions,
it is difficult to pinpoint exactly when it began.
As far back as 1578 John Lyly wrote “anye impietie may lawfully be committed in loue, which is lawlesse.” We do not see evidence of war juxtaposed with love until 1687, when Aphra Behn wrote “All Advantages are lawful in Love and War” in her play The Emperor of the Moon. By 1717 this had morphed into “All advantages are fair in love and war” in William Taverner’s play The Artful Husband. Finally, by 1789 we find the line used exactly as it is today in the novel The Relapse: “Tho’ this was a confounded lie, my friend, ‘all is fair in love and war’.”
