The Real Character of the Age is a book written by C. L. St. and published in 1757. The book is written in the form of a letter addressed to Dr. Brown, and is a response to Brown's own assessment of the manners and principles of the times. St. argues that Brown's assessment is too optimistic and that the real character of the age is one of moral decay and corruption. He cites examples of greed, immorality, and dishonesty in various aspects of society, including politics, religion, and commerce. St. also critiques the education system of the time, arguing that it is failing to instill proper values in the younger generation. He suggests that a return to traditional values and a focus on moral education is necessary to improve the character of the age. Overall, The Real Character of the Age is a critical assessment of the state of society in the mid-18th century, and a call to action for individuals to take responsibility for improving the moral character of their communities.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
