Sinopse

The Revolt of Man is a novel written by Walter Besant that was first published in 1898. The story is set in the late 19th century and explores the themes of gender roles, social class, and the struggle for power. The novel follows the life of Sir John Maltravers, a wealthy and powerful man who is forced to confront the limitations of his own power and the changing societal norms of his time.As the story unfolds, Sir John becomes increasingly frustrated with the restrictions placed on him as a man in Victorian society. He longs for freedom and autonomy, but is constantly hindered by the expectations placed on him as a member of the upper class. Sir John?s frustrations lead him to join a secret society of men who are seeking to overthrow the existing social order and establish a new world order in which men are free to pursue their desires without restriction.As Sir John becomes more deeply involved in the society?s activities, he begins to question the morality of their actions and the true nature of their goals. The novel ultimately explores the consequences of rebellion and the dangers of unchecked power, as Sir John struggles to reconcile his desire for freedom with his responsibility to society.Overall, The Revolt of Man is a thought-provoking and engaging novel that offers a unique perspective on the social and political issues of its time.THE FIRST days were spent in drill, in exhortation, in feasting, and in singing. Grace Ingleby fitted new words to old tunes, and the men sang them marching across the park. A detachment of keepers was placed at the gates to receive new recruits, and to keep out the women who crowded round them all day long--some laughing, some crying, some threatening.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
