Synopsis

The Merry Order of St. Bridget is a book written by Margaret Anson and originally published in 1857. It is a personal recollection of the author's experiences with the use of the rod, a form of corporal punishment, as a member of the Merry Order of St. Bridget. The book describes the rituals and practices of the order, which was a secret society of women who believed in the use of the rod as a means of discipline and self-improvement. The author recounts her own experiences with the rod, as well as those of other members of the order, and reflects on the role of corporal punishment in society. The book provides a unique insight into the attitudes and practices of the Victorian era, and is a fascinating read for anyone interested in the history of punishment and social norms.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

Présentation de l'éditeur

Mepry pderofo)t. Bridget. CHAPTER I. THE CHATEAU DE FLORIS. Laura Housf, Bayswater, A pril 10th 1868. My dear Marion, I am sure you must have wondered what has become of me in all these years (three, isnt it?) since we met at Lord Es place. Perhaps you wont care to hear from me again, and will fancy I have forgotten our old friendship ;indeed, my dear, it is not so, but Ive been knocking about a bit, and seen the world. Ive been in Paris two years in two different places, and learned as much in that time as many folks do in a lifetime.
