Manners and Rules of Good Society; Or, Solecisms to be Avoided by a Member of the Aristocracy cover

Manners and Rules of Good Society; Or, Solecisms to be Avoided by a Member of the Aristocracy

Rate this audiobook

The title of this work sufficiently indicates the nature of its contents. The Usages of Good Society relate not only to good manners and to good breeding, but also to the proper etiquette to be observed on every occasion. (From “Introductory Remarks”) Note: The abbreviation viz. (or viz without a full stop) is short for the Latin videlicet, which itself is a contraction of the Latin phrase videre licet, meaning “it is permitted to see”. (Wikipedia)     [chương_files]

Masterpieces of Negro Eloquence

Rate this audiobook

It seems eminently fitting and proper in this year, the fiftieth anniversary of the Proclamation of Emancipation that the Negro should give pause and look around him at the things which he has done, those which he might have done, and those which he intends to do. We pause, just at the beginning of another half century, taking stock of past achievements, present conditions, future possibilities. (Preface)     [chương_files]

Through examples of her observations Montessori details the reasoning behind her methods. This book is translated from its original in Italian. – Summary by Grace En-Tien Chang     [chương_files]
