Excerpt from The Rev. Dr. Willoughby and His Wine "There are foolish shepherds (Zech. xi. 15). There are shepherds that feed themselves and not their flocks (Ezek. xxxiv. 2). There are hard-hearted and pitiless shepherds (Zech. xi. 3). There are shepherds that, instead of healing, smite, push, and wound the diseased (Ezek. xxxiv. 4, 21). There are shepherds that cause their flocks to go astray (Jer. i. G). And there are shepherds that feed their floeks (Acts xx. 28)." - John Bunyan. "The fact is, brethren," said Dr. Willoughby, "I have for the most part stood aloof from all these works of moral reform. I have no taste for them. In my view, they interfere with the simple preaching of the Gospel. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

"Wine and Society: The social and cultural context of a drink examines the cultural forces which have shaped both how wine is made and the way in which it is consumed. It's divided into four parts and illustrated by case studies from around the world."--BOOK JACKET.
A notable contribution to our understanding of ourselves. This book explores the realm of human behavior in social situations and the way that we appear to others. Dr. Goffman uses the metaphor of theatrical performance as a framework. Each person in everyday social intercourse presents himself and his activity to others, attempts to guide and cotnrol the impressions they form of him, and employs certain techniques in order to sustain his performance, just as an actor presents a character to an audience. The discussions of these social techniques offered here are based upon detailed research and observation of social customs in many regions.
A consummate portrait of vanity and egoism. Virginia Woolf said of "The Egoist": 'Meredith pays us a supreme compliment to which as novel-readers we are little accustomed... He imagines us capable of disinterested curiosity in the behaviour of our kind.' In this, the most dazzlingly intellectual of all his novels, Meredith tries to illuminate the pretensions of the most powerful class within the very citadel of security which its members have built. He develops to their logical extremity his ideas on egoism, on sentimentality and on the power of comedy. Meredith saw egoism as the great enemy of truth, feeling and progress, and comedy as the great dissolver of artifice. "The Egoist" is the extreme expression of his recurrent theme: the defeat of egoism by the power of comedy.
