Beschreibung
Thomas Hughes' 'True Manliness' is a seminal work that explores the concept of masculinity in the Victorian era. Written in a classic and eloquent style, the book delves into the expectations placed on men in society, touching on issues of honor, duty, and virtue. Hughes weaves together anecdotes and moral lessons to paint a vivid picture of what it means to be a 'true man' in a rapidly changing world. Set against the backdrop of Britain's industrial revolution, the book reflects the author's deep understanding of the social and cultural norms of his time. The emphasis on character development and personal integrity makes 'True Manliness' a timeless piece of literature that continues to resonate with readers today. Thomas Hughes, a prominent Victorian author and social reformer, was known for his commitment to promoting moral values and ethical behavior. His background as a lawyer and politician provided him with unique insights into the complexities of human nature, which are evident in his writing. In 'True Manliness', Hughes imparts valuable lessons on masculinity that are as relevant now as they were in the 19th century. I highly recommend this book to anyone interested in exploring the timeless ideals of manhood and the evolving nature of gender roles.
