Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Considerations Upon Wit and Morals La Rochefoucault, la Bruyere and Duclos seem to have exhausted that part of morality which has for its object, Man living in Society, at Court, or in the Metropolis. But although the principle be invariable, man is seen in every age, in each reign under different appearances. The ideas which are most general in the world, the increase of riches and enjoyments, the progress of luxury, the severity or weakness of government, the force or annihilation of certain prejudices, the greater or lesser communication of the court with the city, all these circumstances produce considerable changes in the morals of a nation. There are distempers which totally disappear, whilst others arise to afflict humanity. It is the same with morals.
