Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a captivating and witty collection of lectures that explore the social and cultural landscape of 18th-century London. The author, a keen observer of human behavior, offers a unique perspective on the follies and eccentricities of the English aristocracy and middle class during this period. Through a series of satirical sketches and humorous anecdotes, the author provides a glimpse into the preoccupation with fashion, wealth, and status that defined much of society at the time. By juxtaposing the frivolous pursuits of the upper classes with the plight of the poor and marginalized, the book highlights the stark inequalities and social tensions that existed in Georgian England. Ultimately, this book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the social history of 18th-century London, offering a nuanced and entertaining exploration of the era's customs, values, and preoccupations.
