Civil Conversation Book III The manner of conversation to be observed all within the home. 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 presents the order of conversation to be observed indoors established between husband and wife, father and son, brother and brother, master and servant.
