Originally comprising a series of newspaper articles from the 18th century, this book concerns itself with the examination of theatre, the performing arts, and the arguments for and against public amusement. The author, fueled by deep personal conviction, seeks to demonstrate that not only is it unnecessary for such diversions and entertainments to take place, but also that they have a decidedly negative effect on morals and virtue. Using logic, reason, and historical context, this book provides readers with compelling insights, giving them much to consider about the arguments for and against public entertainment.
