Opis

Excerpt from Etiquette of Good Society It may be said that the books already published on the subject of "manners" and "etiquette" are sufficiently numerous for the wants of the community; but to this remark we would reply, that although the broad principles of manners remain the same, yet the minutioe are continually altering and varying, and modes of speech and action which were considered the height of politeness a few years ago would be pronounced, at any rate very old-fashioned if used and exhibited in the present day. As this is shown to be the case more fully in the Introduction, it is only necessary to state here for what purpose the subjects treated have been chosen, and why they have been placed in the order in which they will be found. Christenings, Weddings, and Funerals seem to be the subjects which stand most prominently forward in the catalogue of social observances, hallowed as they are by sacred rites and ceremonies; attached to and consequent on these principal events are a host of minor circumstances, Which also demand attention. Birth - the commencement of life - with all its attendant ceremonies, is naturally the first subject considered.
