Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book is a nuanced treatise on political commentary in 18th Century Great Britain. The author carefully dissects the writings of an anonymous pamphleteer who provided effusive praise for the leading political figures of the day, all while leveling equally barbed criticism against those same figures. The author of this book demonstrates how the pamphleteer's true political intentions are revealed not by what they explicitly state, but by the contradictions between the public facade they present and the underlying motives hinted at in their own words. This book is a valuable resource for those interested in 18th-century politics as well as for students of rhetoric and political communication. The author's insights into the subtle art of political deception are as relevant to contemporary political discourse as they were two hundred years ago.
