Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book, likely penned around the late 18th century, takes a satirical journey into the world of societal follies. As a keen observer of their time, the author captures and captures with piquant wit the fads and foibles of the period. Within the text, the author uses the literary device of a visit to a temple of folly. From the high and mighty to the meek and self-deluded, the author spares no one in their quest to expose the 'folly' characterizing the age. The author also explores the influence of folly on taste, fashion, arts, and social customs. A significant work for readers interested in satire, social history, and cultural studies, this book provides a delightful journey into the past.
