A Revival of Civil ConversationBook I

The rewards that can be reaped from conversation and teaching how to get to know good company from bad.This is a revival of The Civil Conversation adapted into today's English. Written first in Italian in 1574 and then translated into French several years later, then translated into English in 1581 based on the French translation and guided by the original Italian by George Pettie. Paragraphs and chapters have been added to break the conversation into chunks that can be more easily digested. Illustrations have been added to bring portions of the book alive.

This book is based on the English translation by George Pettie and the original Italian as a reference. It is a very polished form of prose that follows the natural flow of speech during the sixteenth century. It is full of lively figures of speech, descriptive illustrations, and a host of proverbs, poems, colloquialisms, and sayings of that time that are still in use today. It contains fruit that can be harvested by conversation and teaches how to determine good company from bad.
