Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Best Letters of Lord Chesterfield: Letters to His Son, and Letters to His Godson IN summarizing the character of Philip Dormer Stanhope, Earl of Chesterfield, Lecky the historian describes him as a man Of delicate but fastidious taste, low moral principle, and hard, keen, and worldly wisdom and this estimate, with an undue stress upon low\moral principle, fairly expresses the conventional idea Of the brilliant eighteenth cen tury statesman and wit. It may be said of Lord Chesterfield and it is a rather uncommon thing to say of one of his countrymen - that his reputation has suffered more from his preaching than from his practice. Weighed fairly in the balance with his contemporaries and co-equals, he loses in great measure the invidious distinction usually bestowed upon him and those conversant with his philosophy will readily conjecture that had he intended his preaching for the morally-sensitive ear of the British public, he would have more carefully observed his own organic maxim, Le Grand Art, et le plus necessaire de tous, c'est L 'art (ie Plaz're.

Download or read book Lord Chesterfield s Letters written by Philip Dormer Stanhope Earl of Chesterfield and published by Oxford Paperbacks. This book was released on 1998-09-10 with total page 482 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: `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 of governing', 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. - ;`My object is to have you fit to live; which, if you are not, I do not desire that you should live at all.'
