Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - A sharp-edged mirror of Victorian life, Cambridge Pieces gathers Samuel Butler's sly observations into a compact, disarming collection. Witty, humane, and unsentimental, these pieces move from crisp humour sketches to pointed essays, tracing the manners, pretensions, and intellectual life of late nineteenth-century Britain.This volume offers more than entertainment; it is a compact map of Victorian Britain seen through Butler's clear-eyed intelligence. The humour ranges from razors of social satire to patient, insightful portraits of scholars, writers, and thinkers. Readers of satirical essays will recognise a lineage that mingles brisk social critique with reflective, occasionally musical prose. For Victorian literature students and antique book collectors alike, Cambridge Pieces presents a precise lens on a culture in conversation with itself, a companion for those who relish the era's sharp exchanges and humane curiosities.Historically significant as part of Butler's broader critique of manners and ideas, the book sits within a tradition of British social commentary that includes Bulwer Lytton's satirical voices. Its warmth and precision invite casual readers and scholars to revisit Victorian Britain with fresh eyes. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions, this edition has been restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure for lovers of intellectual life essays, romance of the essay, and the enduring charm of late nineteenth-century Britain.…
