Summary of Book of Etiqutte

2015-07-03 来源: 51due教员组 类别: 更多范文

At the age before sixteen, when George Washington was a young student in Virginia, he wrote The Rules of Civility and Decent Behavior in Company and Conversation. As few people told Washington how to behave properly and he himself had an acute awareness of his lack of formal education, Washington was guided by these rules on behaviors, pronounced speech and respect for his superiors. The rules, which were a series of maxims, were in the last ten pages of a book of personal notes and concerned with specific details of etiquette. 

  These rules mainly concentrated on issues such as how to sit, talk, walk, eat and dress in public. For example, the 24th said, “Do not laugh too loud or too much at any Publick Spectacle”, this is about how to behavior in public. The rule 92, “Take no Salt or Bread with your Knife Greasy,” and rule 12, “Shake not the head, feet or legs roll not the eyes lift not one eyebrow high than the other wry not the mouth, and bedew no mans face with your Spittle, by approaching too near him when you Speak,” also recommended proper behaviors to avoid in public.

  There are also some rules which went deeply into professional and personal behaviors. Rule 40, “Strive not with your Superiers in argument, but always Submit your Judgment to others with Modesty” and rule 68, “Go not thither, where you know not, whether you Shall be Welcome or not. Give not Advice without being Ask'd & when desired do it briefly” encouraged the humility in interaction.

  Besides the rules of behaviors in public and professional and personal behaviors, some other rules were related to Washington’s military and family life. Rule 51, “Wear not your Cloths, foul, unript or Dusty but See they be Brush'd once every day at least and take heed that you approach not to any Uncleaness”, suggested that Washington’s troops’ decorum and cleanliness were at a very high standard during his military years. Rule 56, “Associate yourself with Men of good Quality if you Esteem your own Reputation; for 'tis better to be alone than in bad Company”, this suggested that Washington advised his children to select the right friends or rather to be alone. 

  There were totally 110 rules in Book of Etiquette, which told us how strict George Washington was to himself when he was young. The 110 rules covered many of the proper social networks of that period. The rules made Washington stronger and more powerful gradually and finally made him the first president of the United States of America. They have and continue to appear in all kinds of magazines and newspapers all around America and they will guide thousands of people to the road of success.
