Pleasant Quippes For Upstart Newfangled Gentlewomen And A Treatise On The Pride And Abuse Of Women is a book written by Stephen Gosson in 1841. The book is a combination of two works, the first being a collection of witty and humorous sayings aimed at women who are trying to rise above their social status. The second work is a treatise on the pride and abuse of women, which discusses the role of women in society and how they should behave. The book is written in a satirical style and is intended to be a critique of the changing social norms of the time. Gosson argues that women should not be allowed to become too proud or arrogant, and that they should remain subservient to men. The book is a reflection of the attitudes towards women in the 19th century and provides a fascinating insight into the social and cultural norms of the time.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
