Hints for Lovers

Autor Arnold Haultain
en Limba Engleză Paperback
." . . aphorism are seldom couched in such terms, that they should be taken as they sound precisely, or according to the widest extent of signification; but do commonly need exposition, and admit exception: otherwise frequently they would not only clash with reason and experience, but interfere, thwart, and supplant one another." -Issac Barrow "The very essence of an aphorism is that slight exaggeration which makes it more biting whilst less rigidly accurate." -Leslie Stephen I. On Girls "A Pearl, A Girl." -Browning There are of course, girls and girls; yet at heart they are pretty much alike. In age, naturally, they differ wildly. But this is a thorny subject. Suffice it to say that all men love all girls-the maid of sweet sixteen equally with the maid of untold age.

Descriere

Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:

Hints for Lovers explores the romantic rules of engagement by providing a detailed strategy to help readers successfully navigate and improve their own personal relationships. It offers a light-hearted take on how to find and maintain love in any era.

The author frequently examines the fundamental differences between men and women and how they inform romantic expression. He dives into the psychology of relationships as well as the impact of intimacy such as kissing and making love. It’s a comprehensive analysis of courtship that ranges from dating to engagement and ultimately, marriage.

Published in 1909, Hints for Lovers is greatly influenced by the social constructs of the early twentieth century. The tongue-in-cheek anecdotes consist of many dating principles that are still relevant today. Arnold Haultain’s playful point of view makes for an entertaining and delightful read.

With an eye-catching new cover, and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of Hints for Lovers is both modern and readable.
