Synopsis
Citt and Bumpkin (English Edition) by Roger L'Estrange is a lively, sharp-edged dialogue that captures the clash of city wit and country plain-speaking, using humor and argument to illuminate the politics, manners, and anxieties of its time.
Presented as an exchange between contrasting voices, the book turns everyday observations into pointed commentary, balancing satire with a keen sense of debate. L’Estrange’s prose moves briskly, mixing irony and persuasion in a way that makes the conversation feel immediate, as if overheard in a coffeehouse or on a roadside encounter.
This edition is ideal for readers who enjoy classic English satire, Restoration-era controversy, and historically grounded social commentary. Whether you’re discovering Roger L'Estrange for the first time or returning to his work for its rhetorical energy, Citt and Bumpkin offers an engaging window into the arguments and attitudes that shaped public discourse in early modern England.
