Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from On American Morals and Manners We propose to offer some observations in this article on American morals and manners. There is, at this moment, a very extraordinary crisis of opinion in Europe with regard to this country. Our national character is not only brought into question, but it is brought into question as furnishing grounds for a decision upon the form of our Government, upon the great cause of Republican institutions. For reasons then, deeper than those which concern our national reputation, - and yet this is not indifferent, - this subject deserves attention. We have no desire to overrate the importance of this country; but it is undoubtedly the great embodiment of the leading principle on which the history of the world is to turn for many years to come. When at some future time a philosophical history of the present age shall be written, this country will occupy a place in it, the very converse of that which it now holds in the thoughts of most men in the Old World. That future time will far better understand the map of human affairs, not to say our literal geography, than does the present. It will be seen that the tree of freedom, planted on this Western continent, has shot its roots and fibres through the whole of Europe; beneath the soil of all her ancient and venerable institutions. Whether it shall stand and flourish and lend strength to the world; or whether, overturned by whelming floods, it shall draw the world down with it, or leave it rent and torn by the disruption of its ties - this is the question.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Evening Book: Or Fireside Talk on Morals and Manners, With Sketches of Western Life American views Of manners and morals should be partial or narrow, but because the foreign literature which fur nishes most of the reading of our young people seems to me likely to inspire them with un-american ideas of society and even Of duty, and it becomes, therefore, especially desirable to refer sometimes to the ancient and universal standards - those whose excellence is beyond dispute, though portions of the world have departed far from their influence, led away by the incorrect notions Of life which prevail in 01d and corrupt communities.'

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lecture on Teachers' Morals and Manners: Delivered Before the American Institute of Instruction, at Keene, N. H., August 1851 Past, which were before thee, since the day that God created man Upon the face of the earth, and ask, from the one side of heaven unto the other, whether there hath been any such great thing as this great thing is, or hath been heard like it. No, my friends, no such amazing contrast hath ever been known; and if it were not that with God all things are possible, one would be almost ready to believe that the like could never again be known. They were the feeblest of the feeble, faint, few, yet fearless; a wilderness and deso late snows of winter before them; a wild, an untried coast, a frozen soil, the terror of the savage dwellers of the land, a scanty supply of stores; homeless, houseless men and women and tender children, - yet all was nought to them, because there dwelt in every bosom the unquenchable fires of liberty - liberty, civil and religious. Loving women, and daring men, what could they not fearlessly encounter.l What have they not surely brought to pass.l And the deep secret of the whole success lies in the simple truth, that they were men of the Church and of the School-house. Blest badges of new-england sure sources of all her greatness Let me traverse through the wide fields of the air, at such towering height, that I can take into my range of sight all of cities and towns and villages and hamlets that dot the face of the re volving earth and I will tell you where the sons of new-england congregate, and where they make their home. It will be where I find these marks of their peculiar way of life, the spire and the school. And it is to these we are to trace her greatness, and to the continued existence of these we are to bind our hopes of her future influences in directing and controling.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Men, Manners Morals in South America Having regard to the present parlous price Of paper and to the patience of much-suffering readers, the perpetration of yet another book on South America might appear at the outset to call for some explanation, if not for apology. The list of books published under this heading in recent years is indeed so formidable that the world may well be weary Of it. From the library catalogue point Of View, the subject might well seem to have been exhausted, every part Of the continent having been ransacked and described, all its words and works recorded. Yet, how few there be amongst all these works (as some Of us know to our cost) that properly and worthily inculcate the profitable exercise Of travel, or that appeal to and justify the wandering instinct Of rational man! Say what you will, the great majority of them are so dreadfully infected with stodgy commercialism, so monumentally useful, that their general effect upon the mind (unless it be the mind of a bagman) can only be compared to a surfeit Of suet pudding. Here and there only, rarz' names, amidst all these dreary volumes, will you find the sort Of company for which the Lord of Montaigne looked (alas, how oft in vain in all his journeyings - that rare chance and seld-seene fortune, but Of exceeding solace and inestimable worth, to wit.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Men and Manners in America My next occupation was to look over my letters of introduction. Of these I found above thirty addressed to New York, and being by no means anxious to become involved in so wide a vortex of acquaintance, I request ed one of my American fellow-passengers to select such, as, from his local knowledge, he imagined might prove of more immediate service to a traveller like myself. In consequence of this arrangement, about half the let ters with which the kindness of my friends had furnished me, were discarded, and I can truly say, that the very warm and obliging reception I experienced from those to whom I forwarded introductions, left me no room to r ret the voluntary limitation of their number.

Download or read book Morals and Manners among Negro Americans written by W. E. Burghardt Du Bois and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2010-05-10 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Morals and Manners among Negro Americans is the sequel to W.E.B. Du Bois' The Negro Church. This 1914 study is the last Atlanta University Conference volume to be edited or coedited by Du Bois and is based on a national survey addressing the then current state of morals and manners within the African American community. A case study of the Black Church in Atlanta and an extensive discussion of crime are included also. The national survey addressed such topics as good manners, sound morals, habits of cleanliness, personal honesty, home life, rearing of children, activities for young people, the care of the elderly, church ministries, and an evaluation of recent progress. While the original conference volume included actual lists of the evaluators' responses by topic and classified by state, the data were not analyzed. This reissue of the classic sociological study includes an extensive introduction based on Robert Wortham's content analysis of the survey responses. The results of this analysis are presented in tabular form and discussed, and a statistical appendix summarizing the raw data for each topic by state is provided. This new edition presents readers with an opportunity to evaluate general and regional trends in the evaluators' perception of the state of morals and manners within the African American community at the beginning of the twentieth century.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Morals Manners: Or Elements of Character and Conduct Moral acts are not only the most frequent and most important, but they are also most dith cult to instill. It is comparatively easy to teach most children the fundamental facts of any subject. It is a far more difficult undertaking to teach them what is right and train them to do right because it is right, and to avoid the wrong because it is wrong. If moral actions are most frequent, most important, and most difficult, surely there is good reason for urging that the elements of morals be taught systematically to every child, both in school and at home.

Download or read book Society Manners and Politics in the United States written by Michel Chevalier and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-04 with total page 476 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Society, Manners and Politics in the United States: Being a Series of Letters on North America M. Chevalier was sent to this country in 1834, under the patronage of Thiers, then Minister of the Interior, in France, to inspect our public works. But attracted by the novel spectacle presented by society in the United States, he extended the time of his stay and the sphere of his observations amongst us, and spent two years in visiting nearly all parts of the Union, and studying the workings of our social and political machinery. His letters give the results of his observations, the impressions made on his mind, his speculations in regard to the future destiny of our institutions, rather than a detailed narrative of facts and events, which, however, is introduced when necessary for illustration or proof. The translator is not, of course, to be considered responsible for all the opinions and statements of the original; but it will be found, in his judgment, that M. Chevalier has studied with diligence and sagacity, drawn his conclusions with caution and discrimination, and stated his views in a clear, forcible, and interesting manner.
