Autorenporträt
Edith B. Ordway remains a somewhat enigmatic figure in the sphere of etiquette and social behavior literature, primarily recognized for her work 'The Etiquette of To-day,' first published in the early 20th century. While biographical details about Ordway are sparse, her contribution to the genre of etiquette books is notable. 'The Etiquette of To-day' serves as a comprehensive guide, reflecting the social customs and expectations of her time. Ordway's detailed exposition offers insights into the manners deemed essential for various social situations, ranging from correspondence and conversation to social engagements and dress. Her work encapsulates the etiquettes that governed the everyday interactions and societal norms of the period. The book addresses both men and women, emphasizing the importance of polite society and the role of proper behavior in maintaining one's reputation and social standing. Although 'The Etiquette of To-day' is edifying for historical understanding, the lack of additional publications or biographical information casts Ordway as a somewhat singular figure in literary circles focused on social conduct. Nonetheless, her contribution to the field remains a touchstone for those interested in the customs and decorum of the past.
