More about the book

"What did it mean to be civilized in early modern England? Keith Thomas explores the belief of the English elite in their superior civility and how this shaped relations with their social inferiors and with the Welsh, the Scots and the Irish. With customary authority and brilliance, Thomas transforms our understanding of the past - and raises important questions about the role of manners in the modern world." -- Page [4] of cover
