There is pleasure in the pathless woods, there is rapture in the lonely shore
There is society where none intrudes, by the deep sea, with music in it’s roar
I love not Man the less, but Nature more

– Lord Byron

    Window Shoppin’

    Window shopping was synonymous with being in the city and moreover offered women a legitimate reason to be able to move around in public without a chaperone. In the late 1800s it was a minor scandal to be seen in public without a chaperone because not everyone was happy about the emancipation of women in urban life. Many looked down on females who walked the streets alone and even newspaper columnists condemned their shopping habits as “salacious acts of public consumerism.” – Aleks Selection – http://walkowska.com
