Lady Chesterfield's Letters to Her Daughter (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This 1860s self-help manual for young women presents itself as letters written by an elderly woman to her daughter on the cusp of adulthood. While many of the author's specific concerns are culturally and historically specific to Victorian Englandâ"from the minutiae of mourning etiquette to the social etiquette of railway travel and the threat of fraudulent spiritualismâ"the book's broader themes remain poignant and significant. Namely, the author argues that women should seek knowledge and independence within the constraints of rigid gender roles. The author also encourages her readers to seek out the company of positive influences and warns them against the dangers of falling prey to the flattery of "painted dandies" and other aristocratic cads. Ultimately, it is a valuable historical artifact as well as a charming glimpse into the complex world of the mid-19th-century British upper class. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781330750070_0
