This book approaches the concept of cosmopolitan sociability as a cultural or territorial rootedness that facilitates a simultaneous openness to shared human emotions, experiences, and aspirations. Cosmopolitan Sociability critiques definitions of cosmopolitanism as a tolerance for cultural difference or a universalist morality that arise from contemporary experiences of mobility and globalization. Challenging these assumptions, the book explores the degree to which a 'cosmopolitan dimension' can be practised within particular religious communities, diasporic ties, or gendered migrant identities in different parts of the world. A wide variety of expert contributors offer rich ethnographic insights into the interplay of social interactions and cosmopolitan sociability. In this way the book contributes significantly to ethnic and migration studies, global anthropology, social theory, and religious and cultural studies. Cosmopolitan Sociability was originally published as a special issue of Ethnic and Racial Studies.

Not to a princess would I pay such homage as to the woman who could wake the feeling with which these poor people regard you." She blushed with the deepest pleasure of her life, for she had been repressed and reprimanded so long that words of encouragement and praise were very sweet. But she only said with a laugh, "Oh, come; don't turn my poor bewildered head any more to-night. I'm desperately anxious to have uncle and aunt think I'm a very mature young woman, but I know better and so do you. Why, even Uncle Lusthah made me cry like a child." "Well, his words about you brought tears to my eyes, and so there's a pair of us." "Oh!" she cried delightedly, giving his arm a slight pressure, " I didn't know that you'd own up to that. When I saw them I felt like laughing and crying at the same moment. And so I do now--it's so delicious to be free and happy--to feel that some one is honestly pleased with you." He looked upon her upturned face, still dewy from emotion, and wondered if the moon that night shone on a fairer object the world around. It was indeed the face of a glad, happy child no longer depressed by woes a few hours old, nor fearful of what the next hour might bring. Her look into his eyes was also that of a child, full of unbounded trust, now that her full confidence was won. "You do indeed seem like a lovely child, Miss Baron, and old Uncle Lusthah told the whole truth about you. Those simple folk are like children themselves and find people out by intuition. If you were not good-hearted they would know it. Well, I'm glad I'm not old myself...".

The 16th of October, 1793. The Place de la Concorde is black with human beings; a tumbrel, escorted by soldiers, forces its way through the crowd; seated upon a bundle of straw, the queen, dressed in white, seems lost in her last thoughts. The cart reaches the foot of the scaffold, and Marie Antoinette ascends it with firm, quick steps. When she reaches the guillotine, she casts a glance toward the Tuileries. As in a rapid vision, she sees once more her happy days: the Trianon fetes, where she shone in such incomparable beauty; but most fondly her last sojourn with her children, in that enchanted park. Her children! What will become of them? This is her last, her very last thought, before, heartbroken at the prospect that may await them, she bends under the blade of the guillotine. To-day, thousands of visitors daily throng the park of Trianon; they visit the little chateau, so simple in its architecture; but most eagerly they walk in the charming paths, follow with delighted eye the meanderings of the brooks that flow under the trees planted by Marie Antoinette's orders, and examine with keenest interest the village, whose every house is still standing.. At the beginning of this century, Trianon was let to a restaurant-keeper, who used it to give public concerts and balls! To-day it has been restored to its former state. The visitor often feels that he is making a pilgrimage in remembrance of the martyred queen, and at each tree and shrub half expects to see appear, in her simple lawn dress, the unfortunate princess whose memory is so closely identified with Trianon.

She accordingly founded a literary club of ladies, who met biweekly in the parlors of the members, at which each one was expected to contribute an article from her own pen, to lie read before her confreres and discussed by the society. The wisdom of this social leader has been well proved by the success of the modest little society which she founded, and from w h i ch have sprung many others of more or less d istinction, the original society being an exclusive association to which few are admitted, and to attain entrance to w h i c h confers a certain social distinction. This society is so quietly conducted that but few people know of its existence, beyond the circle of old-fashioned New Yorkers. the metropolis. Up to the middle of the century, the subject of wealth was one that was little considered or discussed. Every one lived in about the same simple style; cverjr one was supposed to have the same number of servants, that was increased only when one family was larger than another and required more service. It was considered the height of vulgarity to spend money lavishly on unnecessary luxuries, simply for the sake of making a display and thereby exciting the envy of others. Quiet, unostentatious hospitality marked the character of each household in which the wit and education of the hosts were the standard of excellence and not the size of their bank account. Families were well known in all their branches and ramifications, and there were but few persons in society who had not been born and bred in the city. Photograph by Path Hi other. MRS.
