Download or read book The Ladies Guide to True Politeness and Perfect Manners written by Miss Miss Leslie and published by . This book was released on 2015-06-27 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A guide and manual for ladies, as regards their conversation, manners; dress; introductions; entre to society; shopping; conduct in the street; at places of amusement; in traveling; at the table; either at home, in company, or at hotels; deportment in gentlemen's society; lips; complexion; teeth; hands; the hair; etc. etc. "With full instructions and advice in letter writing; receiving presents; incorrect words; borrowing; obligations to gentlemen; offences; children; decorum in church; at evening parties; and suggestions in bad practices and habits easily contracted, which no lady should be guilty of, etc. etc." "If you have shopping to do, and are acquainted with the town, you can be under no necessity of imposing on any lady of the family the task of accompanying you. To shop for others, or with others, is a most irksome fatigue. Even when a stranger in the place, you can easily, by enquiring of the family, learn where the best stores are to be found, and go to them by yourself." "No colours are more ungenteel, or in worse taste, than reddish lilacs, reddish purples, and reddish browns." "Above all, do not travel in white kid gloves. Respectable women never do."* "Ladies no longer eat salt-fish at a public-table." Originally published in 1864, this item reads today as a wretched but informed instruction manual for Miss Leslie's readership - upper class Victorian American ladies. Both sociologically fascinating and hilarious, The Ladies' Guide To True Politeness, is, to quote American Literary Gazette and Publishers' Circular, Volumes 3-4, "written for American society, and its admonitions are such as are of practical and constant importance in ordinary intercourse."

Download or read book From the Ballroom to Hell written by Elizabeth Aldrich and published by Northwestern University Press. This book was released on 1991 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the 1800s, dance and etiquette manuals provided ordinary men and women with the keys to becoming gentlemen and ladies--and thus advancing in society. Why dance? To the insecure and status-oriented upper middle class, the ballroom embodied the perfect setting in which to demonstrate one's fitness for membership in genteel society. From the Ballroom to Hell collects over 100 little-known excerpts from dance, etiquette, beauty, and fashion manuals from the nineteenth century. Included are instructions for performing various dances, as well as musical scores, costume patterns, and the proper way to hold one's posture, fork, gloves, and fan. While of particular interest to dancers, dance historians, and choreographers, anyone fascinated by the ways and mores of the period will find From the Ballroom to Hell an endearing and informative glimpse of America's past.
