Résumé
In "The History of Duelling (Vol. 1 & 2), " J. G. Millingen intricately examines the evolution of the practice of dueling, tracing its origins from ancient customs to the societal intricacies of the 19th century. Millingen adopts a meticulous narrative style, combining historical analysis with rich anecdotes that illuminate the moral, legal, and cultural implications of dueling. The two-volume work situates the duel within broader philosophical discourses of honor and masculinity, unraveling its role in shaping social hierarchies and personal vendettas.
Each chapter is steeped in primary sources that provide authenticity, contributing to the scholarly rigor typically expected in historical discourse. J. G. Millingen, once a prominent physician and a valued member of the intellectual community, had an enduring fascination with cultural practices that define societal interactions. His background affords him a keen insight into the personal and psychological motivations that drove individuals to duel, underscoring the tensions between personal honor and societal expectation.
