Book excerpt: Excerpt from Angling Clubs and Preservation Societies of London and the Provinces With regard to the provincial societies, the line adopted has been entirely different - not in so far as I personally was concerned, because the same letter was addressed to each and all, but in the matter of politeness and courteous consideration towards myself. The result leaves me little room for doubt that the gentlenesses of modern society are cultivated far more abroad than they are at home. Many gentlemen have taken considerable trouble in affording me especially valuable information; to all such I tender my warmest and heartiest thanks - not so much perhaps for the knowledge conveyed in their letters, as for the kindly sentiments which accompanied it. Thus much by way of introduction. For the reason stated, I regret very much that my little book does not contain fuller and more concise information. I leave it, however, to the tender mercies of my readers. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2015-06-25 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Angling Clubs and Preservation Societies of London and the Provinces In writing this handbook it was my original intention to give something like a short history of the formation and present position of some, at any rate, of the chief Angling Societies of the metropolis. Considering that there are certainly over 150 of these societies in London alone, I well knew that I had set myself no light task. Mapping the matter over in my own mind, I came to the conclusion that the only course for me to adopt was to seek the co-operation of the societies themselves, asking through their various secretaries for information as to their origin, and also what, if any, good work they were doing in the present. With this view a letter was sent to the secretaries of the various metropolitan clubs, apprising them of my design and intention. I have to thank a small proportion of these gentlemen, and I regret to say a very small one, for the courtesy of a reply. The larger number evidently considered the matter beneath their valuable notice, and so ignored it altogether. The situation hardly requires further comment.

Book The Division of Labor in Society

Download or read book The Division of Labor in Society written by Émile Durkheim and published by Digireads.com. This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: mile Durkheim is often referred to as the father of sociology. Along with Karl Marx and Max Weber he was a principal architect of modern social science and whose contribution helped established it as an academic discipline. "The Division of Labor in Society," published in 1893, was his first major contribution to the field and arguably one his most important. In this work Durkheim discusses the construction of social order in modern societies, which he argues arises out of two essential forms of solidarity, mechanical and organic. Durkheim further examines how this social order has changed over time from more primitive societies to advanced industrial ones. Unlike Marx, Durkheim does not argue that class conflict is inherent to the modern Capitalistic society. The division of labor is an essential component to the practice of the modern capitalistic system due to the increased economic efficiency that can arise out of specialization; however Durkheim acknowledges that increased specialization does not serve all interests equally well. This important and foundational work is a must read for all students of sociology and economic philosophy.

Book Dilettanti

  • Author : Bruce Redford
  • Publisher : Getty Publications
  • Release : 2008-08-07
  • ISBN : 0892369248
  • Pages : 240 pages

Download or read book Dilettanti written by Bruce Redford and published by Getty Publications. This book was released on 2008-08-07 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bruce Redford re-creates the vibrant culture of connoisseurship in Enlightenment England by investigating the multifaceted activities and achievements of the Society of Dilettani. Elegantly and wittily he dissects the British connoisseurs whose expeditions, collections, and publications laid the groundwork for the Neoclassical revival and for the scholarly study of Graeco-Roman antiquity. After the foundation of the society in 1732, the Dilettani commissioned portraits of the members. Including a striking group of mock-classical and mock-religious representations, these portraits were painted by George Knapton, Sir Joshua Reynolds, and Sir Thomas Lawrence. During the second half of the century, the society’s expeditions to the Levant yielded a series of pioneering architectural folios, beginning with the first volume The Antiquities of Athens in 1762. These monumental volumes aspired to empirical exactitude in text and image alike. They prepared the way for Specimens of Antient Sculpture (1809), which combines the didactic (detailed investigations into technique, condition, restoration, and provenance) with the connoisseurial (plates that bring the illustration of ancient sculpture to new artistic heights). The Society of Dilettanti’s projects and publications exemplify the Enlightenment ideal of the gentleman amateur, which is linked in turn to a culture of wide-ranging curiosity.
