Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - `My object is to have you fit to live; which, if you are not, I do not desire that you should live at all.'So wrote Lord Chesterfield in one of the most celebrated and controversial correspondences between a father and son. Chesterfield wrote almost daily to his natural son, Philip, from 1737 onwards, providing him with instruction in etiquette and the worldly arts.Praised in their day as a complete manual of education, and despised by Samuel Johnson for teaching `the morals of a whore and the manners of a dancing-master', these letters reflect the political craft of a leading statesman and the urbane wit of a man who associated with Pope, Addison, and Swift. The letters reveal Chesterfield's political cynicism and his belief that his country had `always been goverened by the only two or three people, out of two or three millions, totally incapable ofgoverning', as well as his views on good breeding. Not originally intended for publication, this entertaining correspondence illuminates fascinating aspects of eighteenth-century life and manners.ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World's Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around the globe. Each affordable volume reflects Oxford's commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable features, including expert introductions by leading authorities, helpful notes to clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and much more. 480 pp. Deutsch.

Laid in is an invoice for the sale of the books, dated 1964 from Sotheran's. Nice edition of the letters of Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl of Chesterfield [ 1694 - 1773 ] including his famous 'Letters to his Son, on Education'. These Letters were written to Stanhope's illegitimate son Philip Stanhope [ 1732 - 1768 ], as part of his father's earnest education of his son. 'They constitute one of the heaviest intellectual bombardments ever attempted' [DNB]. Much has been speculated on the expectations Stanhope had for his son & the grief he felt at Philip's early death - 'Philip Stanhope became a man of deep learning and sound sense ; but utterly wanting in what his father so highly prized - the graces' [preface]. The books also contain the more restrained 'Letters to his Godson'. 3750 grams.
