This book was released on 1876 with total page 654 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Art must be the faithful expression of a society, since it represents it by its works as it has created them -- undeniable witnesses of its spirit and manners for future generations. But it must be acknowledged that art is only the consequence of the ideas which it expresses; it is the fruit of civilization, not its origin. To understand the Middle Ages and the Renaissance, it is necessary to go back to the source of its art, and to know the life of our fathers; these are two inseparable things, which entwine one another, and become complete one by the other. - Preface.

This book was released on 1872 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In preparing a book of etiquette for ladies, I would lay down as the first rule, "Do unto others as you would others should do to you." You can never be rude if you bear the rule always in mind, for what lady likes to be treated rudely? True Christian politeness will always be the result of an unselfish regard for the feelings of others, and though you may err in the ceremonious points of etiquette, you will never be impolite. Politeness, founded upon such a rule, becomes the expression, in graceful manner, of social virtues. The spirit of politeness consists in a certain attention to forms and ceremonies, which are meant both to please others and ourselves, and to make others pleased with us; a still clearer definition may be given by saying that politeness is goodness of heart put into daily practice; there can be no _true_ politeness without kindness, purity, singleness of heart, and sensibility.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Etiquettes and Manners for Children & Adults In Sanatan Sanskriti (Hindu culture and tradition), teaching children’s etiquettes and manners is considered crucial for their holistic development and integration into society. Here are some key etiquettes and manners emphasized in Sanatan Sanskriti: Respect for Elders: Children are taught to greet elders with respect, such as by touching their feet or offering a respectful namaste (a gesture of greeting). Politeness and Humility: Emphasis is placed on using polite language and showing humility in interactions with others, regardless of their age or status. Purity and Cleanliness: Keeping oneself and one's surroundings clean is considered important for physical, mental, and spiritual well-being. Table Manners: Children are taught how to eat with proper etiquette, including using utensils correctly, not talking with food in their mouth, and showing appreciation for the food served. Sharing and Generosity: Encouraging children to share with others and to be generous fosters a sense of compassion and community. Truthfulness: Teaching the value of speaking truthfully and honestly in all situations is emphasized to build trust and integrity. Self-Control: Instilling discipline and self-control in children helps them manage their behaviour and emotions appropriately. Gratitude: Teaching children to express gratitude for blessings, opportunities, and acts of kindness cultivates a positive outlook and humility. Respect for Nature: Instilling a reverence for nature and all living beings encourages environmental consciousness and a sense of interconnectedness. Spiritual Values: Depending on family beliefs, children may be taught specific spiritual practices such as prayers, meditation, or rituals that emphasize moral values and inner peace. These etiquettes and manners are not just rules to follow but are seen as fundamental principles that contribute to a child's character development, social integration, and spiritual growth in Sanatan Sanskriti.

This book was released on 1998-11-15 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The clash of new and old has created a constantly shifting terrain of customs and cultures in Asia, making it difficult to determine what to expect or what is expected of you. For instance: -The hitchhiker's gesture of raising one thumb means "Get lost" in Australia, and the V sign with the V sign with the palm held toward you is obscene. -Even if you're not in India for business, bring business cards. People often exchange them even at social functions, since it helps the Indians pronounce Western names, and vice versa. -There is almost no concept of privacy in China. Someone may grab a book or letter from you to get a better look at it. Floor attendants in hotels often come into rooms without knocking. -At a formal even in Nepal, people may adorn the guest of honor with a garland of flowers called a mala. -Be careful about complimenting people on a lovely piece of jewelry or an attractive object in the home in Pakistan. The host will feel obliged to give it to you. -In the Philippines, don't' be surprised if people give you food to take home after a dinner party. -In Vietnam, slurp as much as possible when eating noodles or soup, as it is polite to do so. Business and pleasure travelers alike will find all the information they need in The Travelers' Guide to Asian Customs and Manners, including guidelines on greetings, conversation, telephones, dress, meals, tipping, holidays, transportation, legal matters, safety, health, and key phrases. The authors' concise, accurate tops will put every traveler at ease among the changing traditions of Asian culture.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Culture and Comfort Katherine C. Grier shows how the design and furnishings of the mid-nineteenth century parlor reflected the self-image of the Victorian middle class. Parlors provided public facades for formal occasions and represented an attempt to resolve the often opposing ideals of gentility and sincerity to which American culture aspired. The book traces the fortunes of the parlor and its upholstery from its early incarnations in “palace” hotels, railroad cars, steamships, and photographers' studios; through its mid-century heyday, when even remote frontier homes could boast “suites” of red plush sofas and chairs; to its slow, uneven metamorphosis into the more versatile living room. The author argues that even as the home increasingly was seen as a haven from industralization and commercialization, its ties to industry and commerce—in the form of more affordable, machine-made furniture and drapery—became stronger. By the 1920s the parlor's decline signaled both a blurring of the Victorian distinctions between public and private manners and the transfer of middle-class identity from the home to the automobile. Describing the deportment a parlor required, the activities it sheltered, and the marketing and manufacturing breakthroughs that made it available to all, Culture and Comfort reveals the full range of cultural messages conveyed by nineteenth-century parlor materials.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume contains the results of significant fieldwork completed in the Tong Hills of Northern Ghana, an area currently inhabited by the Talensi ethno-linguistic group. Although made anthropologically renowned by the anthropologist Meyer Fortes, the archaeology and material culture of the Talensi Tong Hills had largely been neglected until the research initiated by the authors. Extensive archaeological surveys and excavations were completed allied with ethnoarchaeological and ethnobotanical research on shrines, sacrifice, and indigenous medicine. The data is presented and described, and a settlement chronology for the region reconstructed. The results of the geological, organic geochemical, petrographic, and archaeometallurgical analysis are provided. The function of shrines and the meaning of 'shrine' as a concept are evaluated, and indigenous medicinal practices, their links with shrines, and their substances, materiality, and archaeological implications assessed with reference to the primary empirical material gathered. Ritual, performance, and its inter-relation with the past and the archaeological record are also considered so as to question the 'timelessness' of previous anthropological presentations. The Tong Hills are also discussed with reference to their place in the wider history and archaeology of the region. This book will be useful to anyone interested in the archaeology and anthropology of African indigenous religions and ritual practices, as well as those interested in West African history, and the relationship between archaeology and anthropology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book tells the story of how people struggled to define, reform, and overturn racial etiquette as a social guide for Southern Rhodesian politics. Underlying what appears to be a static history of racial etiquette is a dynamic narrative of anxieties over racial, gender, and generational status. From the outlawing of "insolence" toward officials to a last-ditch "courtesy campaign" in the early 1960s, white elites believed that their nimble use of racial etiquette would contain Africans' desire for social and political change. In turn, Africans mobilized around stories of racial humiliation. Allison Shutt's research provides a microhistory of the changing discourse about manners and respectability in Southern Rhodesia that by the 1950s had become central to fiercely contested political positions and nationalist tactics. Intense debates among Africans and whites alike over the deployment of courtesy and rudeness reveal the social-emotional tensions that contributed to political mobilization on the part of nationalists and the narrowing of options for the course of white politics. Drawing on public records, legal documents, and firsthand accounts, this first book-length history of manners in twentieth-century colonial Africa provides a compelling new model for understanding politics and culture through the prism of etiquette. Allison K. Shutt is professor of history at Hendrix College.
