Verkäuferbewertung 4 von 5 Sternen
Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the widely shared human follies, vices, and absurdities that the author humorously calls "The World." Published in the 1750s, it's a collection of essays that cleverly and candidly satirize the folly of mankind. Inspired by writer Jonathan Swift, the author uses irony, wit, and humor to expose the fashionable excesses and foibles of those in high society of the day. The essays entertainingly parody the growing influence of French culture in England and criticize the aristocracy's tendency to embrace foreign ideas, values, and customs. These essays playfully target the vanity, superficiality, and excessive spending habits of the upper classes. With astute observations on human nature, the author wittily reveals the timeless and universal follies of humankind that persist to this day. 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. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 9781334504181_0
