Riguardo questo articolo

Print on Demand. This book scrutinises the cultural shifts regarding the ownership of property and wealth and questions what it means to be a woman in a rapidly changing world. The author presents intriguing ideas on how the concept of ownership has evolved from a religious significance to a source of religious debate. By exploring the changing attitudes of different generations towards possessions and financial pursuits, the book delves into the tension between traditional values and modern boredom, especially among young people who are increasingly seeing the acquisition of property as a chore rather than a thrilling adventure. The author argues that this shift in perspective is significant and may have far-reaching consequences for society. The book provides a thought-provoking examination of this evolving relationship between humanity and ownership, leaving readers to ponder the meaning and purpose of possessions in our lives. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. Codice articolo 9780243295432_0

Excerpt from Assorted Articles

It is a queer reversal Of the Victorian order. Father Winces and bridles and trembles in his study or his library, and the innocent maiden knocks you flat with her outspokenness in the conservatory. And you have to admit that she is the man of the two; of the three, maybe. Especially when she says, rather sternly, I hope you didn't let daddy see what you thought of him! But what do I think of him? I gasp. Oh, it's fairly Obvious she replies coolly, and dismisses the point.

I admit the young are a little younger than I am or a little Older, which is it? I really haven't spent my years cultivating prunes and prisms, yet, con fronted with a young thing of twenty-two, I Often find myself with a prune-stone in my mouth, and I don t know what to do with it.
