A propos de ce titre

Synopsis

Explore philosophical, political and social aspects of the emergence of British sociability. Contributors create examine sociability as it happened in public, private and domestic settings, covering aspects including the distinctively homo-social and predominantly masculine form of British sociability, the role of sociability within a wider national identity, and the almost unique capacity of the British model of sociability to benefit from its own apparent tensions and contradictions.
