#Brummell

Georgiana BrummellI love this site. They also have fascinating article.s This is great for those of us who love the Regency, as well as those who wear proper period clothing. This partly explains how Brummell's neckcloths were so clean! His were either superfine cambric or fine Irish muslin (he had both). To my blind friends, sometimes, the printed s looked like f during that time, hence the muflin, foap, etc.<a href="https://regrom.com/2024/12/20/regency-household-muslin-care/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">regrom.com/2024/12/20/regency-…</a><a href="https://friendica.world/search?tag=Brummell" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Brummell</a> <a href="https://friendica.world/search?tag=clothing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#clothing</a> <a href="https://friendica.world/search?tag=dandyism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#dandyism</a> <a href="https://friendica.world/search?tag=fashion" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#fashion</a> <a href="https://friendica.world/search?tag=neckcloths" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#neckcloths</a> <a href="https://friendica.world/search?tag=muslin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#muslin</a> <a href="https://friendica.world/search?tag=Regency" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Regency</a> <a href="https://friendica.world/search?tag=washing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#washing</a>

Georgiana BrummellI'm in awe right now, but I need some advice. For several years, I've been seeking the book that Beau Brummell used to learn Latin. I know it was Introduction to the Latin Tongue for the use of Youth. There were many different editions, including The famous, but later, Eton Latin Grammar. He attended Eton from 1786 to 1794. I have a digital copy of one published in 1795, wich fits the timeframe perfectly, but it's a mess when trying to read the "full text" with NVDA (my screen reader) or to convert the pdf to text. Likewise, I have one from about 1824-5 that is a reprint of 1795, and though it's a bit clearer, it's still full of errors. The hard copy reprints I've found are all pictures of the originals, not cleanly retyped. Just now, I found an original 1824 edition, and it's in clean condition! I'm quite afraid, because I am totally blind, and in order to read it, I must hold it and turn the pages so that my software can scan it! I can either use my ArX Vision, which I wear on my head, or my Pearl Document Scanning Camera with Openbook. Either way, I would be touching a book that's 200 years old! However, no one seems to have a modern copy that is retyped. All are just pictures of old editions, and when I try to convert the pdfs to txt, or to read the pre-made html versions (all at the Internet Archive), they are full of errors! This would be fine in English, but I'm using the book to learn Latin!<a href="https://www.abebooks.com/servlet/BookDetailsPL?bi=21230966384" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">abebooks.com/servlet/BookDetai…</a>As a side note, here is my post in which I explain my search for a Latin tutor. I have not yet found one. If you think you can help me, please read said post before simply writing that you are a tutor. I am not using modern methods or pronunciation.<a href="https://dandylover1.dreamwidth.org/76881.html" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">dandylover1.dreamwidth.org/768…</a>Finally, this is the syllabus for the pre-1868 Eton College curriculum that I created after a lot of research. It includes links to the books I plan to use, as well as extras.<a href="https://dandylover1.dreamwidth.org/99443.html" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">dandylover1.dreamwidth.org/994…</a><a href="https://friendica.world/search?tag=BeauBrummell" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#BeauBrummell</a> <a href="https://friendica.world/search?tag=books" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#books</a> <a href="https://friendica.world/search?tag=Brummell" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Brummell</a> <a href="https://friendica.world/search?tag=classicaleducation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#classicaleducation</a> <a href="https://friendica.world/search?tag=education" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#education</a> <a href="https://friendica.world/search?tag=Eton" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Eton</a> <a href="https://friendica.world/search?tag=EtonCollege" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#EtonCollege</a> <a href="https://friendica.world/search?tag=Language" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Language</a> <a href="https://friendica.world/search?tag=Latin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Latin</a> <a href="https://friendica.world/search?tag=Learning" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Learning</a> <a href="https://friendica.world/search?tag=nineteenthcentury" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#nineteenthcentury</a> <a href="https://friendica.world/search?tag=syllabus" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#syllabus</a> <a href="https://friendica.world/search?tag=TraditionalEnglishPronunciation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TraditionalEnglishPronunciation</a> <a href="https://friendica.world/search?tag=teacher" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#teacher</a> <a href="https://friendica.world/search?tag=tutor" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#tutor</a>
