Publisher's Synopsis
Culture and Restraint is a book written by Hugh Black and originally published in 1901. The book explores the relationship between culture and restraint, arguing that true culture is not simply about refinement and elegance, but also about self-control and discipline. Black examines the role of restraint in various aspects of life, including art, literature, religion, and personal conduct. He argues that restraint is necessary for the development of a strong character and a healthy society, and that without it, culture can become decadent and degenerate. The book is a thoughtful and insightful exploration of an important topic, and remains relevant and thought-provoking more than a century after its original publication.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
