BARBARA CARTLAND’S ETIQUETTE HANDBOOK: A GUIDE TO GOOD BEHAVIOUR FROM THE BOUDOIR TO THE BOARDROOM
Book ID/图书代码： 11320008B21784
English Summary/英文概要： ’For the record, the word ’parlour’ is not used, nor is the relatively recent insidious ’lounge’, except about airports, hotels and liners.’ ’Boys should be taught at a very early age - six or seven - to say ’Sir’ to an older man.’ ’When there are servants, the plates for the first course are never put on the table until everyone is seated.’ ’I cannot stress too often that on every formal occasion, whether it is Luncheon, a Bazaar or a Meeting, a hat should be worn.’ Written nearly 50 years ago, "Barbara Cartland’s Etiquette Handbook" conjures up a period when addressing work colleagues by their first names was frowned upon, wives could expect to receive a weekly allowance of five shillings from their husbands, and hats were ubiquitous. Laced throughout with Barbara Cartland’s wit and wisdom, and Francis Marshall’s illustrations, this is a wonderfully evocative insight into the manners of an England that has largely disappeared.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 为了备案，“客厅”这个词不能用，不是靠近阴暗的“休息室”，除了机场，酒店和班轮。男孩子应该在很早的年龄的被教育，比如六七岁被叫“先生”的时候。当有公务员的时候，这应该是第一个被教的课程。“我不想过于强调，在每一个正式的场合，无论是午餐，市集或会议，都应该戴帽子。”《芭芭拉•卡特兰的礼仪手册》写于五十年前，它让人想起了一个时期，那个时候对同事直呼其名会让人皱眉，妻子期望从他们的丈夫每周收到5先令的津贴，而且帽子无处不在。整本书自始至终贯穿着芭芭拉•卡特兰的机智和智慧，以及弗朗西斯•马歇尔的插图，这是一本基本上已经消失，令人回味的关于英格兰利礼仪的书。(LNL)
