Description
""The Laws of Etiquette"" is a comprehensive guide to proper behavior and social protocol written by an anonymous author who identifies himself only as ""A Gentleman."" Originally published in 1836, this book provides a fascinating glimpse into the social norms and expectations of the time, as well as offering timeless advice that is still relevant today. The book covers a wide range of topics, including dress, conversation, manners, and behavior in various social situations. It offers practical advice on everything from how to properly introduce oneself to others, to the proper way to eat soup, to the appropriate way to address a letter. Throughout the book, ""A Gentleman"" emphasizes the importance of good manners and proper behavior, not only for the sake of social success, but also for personal integrity and self-respect. He argues that good manners are a reflection of good character, and that by adhering to certain rules of etiquette, one can demonstrate respect for others and build strong relationships. ""The Laws of Etiquette"" is a fascinating glimpse into a bygone era, but it also offers timeless wisdom that is still relevant today. Whether you are looking to improve your social skills, or simply interested in the history of social norms, this book is a must-read for anyone interested in the art of etiquette.Respectable visitors should be received and treated with the utmost courtesy. But if a tiresome fellow, after wearying all his friends, becomes weary of himself, and arrives to bestow his tediousness upon you, pull out your watch with restlessness, talk about your great occupations and the value of time. Politeness is one thing; to be made a convenience of is another.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
