In any society, a foreigner learning the language must also learn
what passes for good manners. The same is true for the historian
trying to understand the social rules of a period and why these
change. This book explores the nature and development of early
modern conceptions of good manners, and examines some of the
particular forms of everyday behaviour which these conceptions
implied. `Courtesy' and `Civility' were among the values central to
Tudor and Stuart assumptions and fears about the social and
political order.
