Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Social Life and Manners in Australia: Being the Notes of Eight Years Experience Shakspeare says, f' A good play needs no epilogue. Now, dear reader, I do not mean to say that this little unpretending book is so good that it needs no preface; but I do think it is quite necessary to explain my reasons for publishing some selections from a diary written during my stay in Victoria. It was as much to please those who are dear to me, as my own desire to place before such as are about to emigrate a true picture of the colony which has been my home for many years, and which I do not think is sufficiently appreciated in the mother country.

Download or read book Needlework and Women s Identity in Colonial Australia written by Lorinda Cramer and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2019-09-05 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In gold-rush Australia, social identity was in flux: gold promised access to fashionable new clothes, a grand home, and the goods to furnish it, but could not buy gentility. Needlework and Women's Identity in Colonial Australia explores how the wives, mothers, sisters, and daughters who migrated to the newly formed colony of Victoria used their needle skills as a powerful claim to social standing. Focusing on one of women's most common daily tasks, the book examines how needlework's practice and products were vital in the contest for social position in the turmoil of the first two decades of the Victorian rush from 1851. Placing women firmly at the center of colonial history, it explores how the needle became a tool for stitching together identity. From decorative needlework to household making and mending, women's sewing was a vehicle for establishing, asserting, and maintaining social status. Interdisciplinary in scope, Needlework and Women's Identity in Colonial Australia draws on material culture, written primary sources, and pictorial evidence, to create a rich portrait of the objects and manners that defined genteel goldfields living. Giving voice to women's experiences and positioning them as key players in the fabric of gold-rush society, this volume offers a fresh critical perspective on gender and textile history.
Download or read book Etiquette Secrets written by Anna Musson and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Annotation. A Simple Guide to Mastering the Art of Modern Manners 1970s Australia was a hotbed of social change, facilitated by the introduction of key policy changes: Not at fault divorce and free university education. The first had an enormous impact on the traditional nuclear family. This meant more women were entering full time work, and a new family structure emerged with more single parent or two parent working families. The ripple effect of these changes has seen two generations of decline of family values and in particular what we broadly call "manners" being part of our daily lives. The rise in immigration quickly lead to a clash of cultures in our workplaces and confusion of what is appropriate in business. When you add technology to the mix, the rise of the "me" generation is complete - and disastrous. 'Etiquette Secrets' will help those wish to understand how to navigate modern Australian society with confidence and style. Easy to read, this book outlines the appropriate behaviour which will ensure promotion, increase social standing and improve your opportunities in life.

Book excerpt: "Witty, well-reasoned, and, yes, occasionally potty mouthed, the fiercely talented Lucinda Holdforth may be doing more to save civilization than anyone I know. Holdforth has held forth, and for this I bow down low before her." -Henry Alford, author of How To Live In this age of global warming and warfare, aren't manners frivolous? Do manners really matter? Yes! Lucinda Holdforth passionately exclaims. Holdforth wonderfully manages to show that manners are not about saying please and thank you, or about teaching your children to address people by Mr. or Mrs. Citing everyone from Erasmus, Tocqueville, T.S. Elliot to George Orwell and Proust and Borat, Holdforth shows how manners- which many of us might think are inconsequential-are actually the cornerstone to civilization.
