读书简介

William Makepeace Thackeray is known for his satirical works, particularly Vanity Fair, a panoramic portrait of English society. While the word 'snob' had been in use since the end of the 18th century Thackeray's adoption of the term to refer to people who look down on others who are "socially inferior" quickly gained popularity. The Book of Snobs is a collection of satirical works by William Makepeace Thackeray published in book form in 1848, the same year as his more famous Vanity Fair.
