Download or read book Misers written by Timothy Alborn and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2022-05-05 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume uses the extreme case of misers to examine interlocking categories that undergirded the emergence of modern British society, including new perspectives on charity, morality, and marriage; new representations of passion and sympathy; and new modes of saving, spending, and investment. Misers surveys this class of people—as invented and interpreted in sermons, poems, novels, and plays; analyzed by economists and philosophers; and profiled in obituaries and biographies—to explore how British attitudes about saving money shifted between 1700 and 1860. As opposed to the century before, the nineteenth century witnessed a new appreciation for misers, as economists credited them with adding to the nation's stock of capital and novelists newly imagined their capacity to empathize with fellow human beings. These characters shared the spotlight with real people who posthumously donned that label, populating into a cottage industry of miser biographies by the 1850s. By the time A Christmas Carol appeared in 1843, many Victorians had come to embrace misers as links that connected one generation’s extreme saving with the next generation’s virtuous spending. With a broad chronological period, this volume is useful for students and scholars interested in representation of misers in eighteenth- and nineteenth-century Britain.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The specificity of the Arab Anecdote, is a relation of spontaneity, without psychoanalysis of the person, a lenient text reflecting the desire to let all taking part in pleasure and humor.Arab storytellers, in Stories of misers, aim leisure and dream, putting forward features of an amusing personality, without offending or stigmatizing.However on the contrary, these misers enjoy rather empathy and pity, the ultimate aim is the amusement of the reader while preserving the status of the miser.The author wounds this personality by no means, making fun slightly on it, inviting the other-reader to laugh creating joy and pleasure.It is true that the avarice is a non-acceptable quality, but the great author describes this quality in a comic way, to sympathize with the personality, inviting it to correct his behavior, and to come back to the group. Arab anecdote of misers was popular among people, and was an amusing subject of writers, especially when anecdote joins together the personality of the miser and that of the greedy one; the scene becomes a conflict between the two; while one declines, the other wishes, creating situations causing rapture and laughter.
