Bag om Anti-Coningsby V1-2

Anti-Coningsby V1-2: Or The New Generation Grown Old is a two-volume book written by Benjamin Disraeli and published in 1844. The book is a political satire that criticizes the Whig Party and their policies. The title is a reference to Coningsby, a novel written by Disraeli that was a defense of the Tory Party. In Anti-Coningsby, Disraeli portrays the Whigs as a group of self-serving politicians who have lost touch with the needs of the people. He argues that the Whigs are more interested in maintaining their own power than in serving the public good. Disraeli also criticizes the Whigs for their economic policies, which he believes are detrimental to the country's prosperity. The book is divided into two volumes, with the first volume focusing on the political and economic issues of the day, while the second volume is more philosophical in nature. In the second volume, Disraeli reflects on the nature of society and the role of government in shaping it. He argues that society is constantly evolving and that the government must adapt to meet the changing needs of the people. Overall, Anti-Coningsby V1-2: Or The New Generation Grown Old is a biting critique of the Whig Party and their policies. It is also a reflection on the nature of society and the role of government in shaping it. Despite being written over 150 years ago, the book remains relevant today, as many of the issues and debates it addresses are still relevant in modern politics.In Two Volumes.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
