Is Polite Society Polite? And Other Essays is a collection of essays written by Julia Ward Howe, a prominent American writer, reformer, and suffragist. The book explores various topics related to society, culture, and politics, and offers Howe's insightful observations and opinions on these issues. The title essay, Is Polite Society Polite?, examines the contradictions and hypocrisies of high society, and questions whether it truly lives up to its reputation of being polite and refined. Other essays in the book cover topics such as women's rights, education, religion, and literature. Howe's writing is characterized by her sharp wit, keen intelligence, and passionate advocacy for social justice. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of American social and political thought, as well as for those who enjoy thought-provoking essays on a wide range of topics.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
