""On The Apparel Of Women"" is a book written by Tertullian, a prominent Christian theologian from the 2nd century AD. The book is a treatise on the proper dress and behavior of women, according to Christian beliefs. Tertullian argues that women should dress modestly and avoid any adornment that might lead to vanity or temptation. He also suggests that women should avoid any behavior that might be seen as immodest or inappropriate, such as excessive laughter or flirtatious behavior. The book is considered an important historical document, as it provides insight into the early Christian attitudes towards gender roles and the role of women in society. However, it has also been criticized for its strict and patriarchal views on women's behavior and dress.You must know that in the eye of perfect, that is, Christian, modesty, (carnal) desire of one's self (on the part of others) is not only not to be desired, but even execrated, by you: first, because the study of making personal grace (which we know to be naturally the inviter of lust) a mean of pleasing does not spring from a sound conscience: why therefore excite toward yourself that evil (passion)? why invite (that) to which you profess yourself a stranger? secondly, because we ought not to open a way to temptations, which, by their instancy, sometimes achieve (a wickedness).This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
