Bigotry: A Satire In Hudibrastic Verse is a book written by Thomas Pyne in 1856. The book is a satirical work that uses the form of Hudibrastic verse to criticize the social and political attitudes of the time. The book is divided into four parts, each of which focuses on a different aspect of bigotry. The first part deals with religious bigotry, the second with racial bigotry, the third with political bigotry, and the fourth with social bigotry.Throughout the book, Pyne uses humor and irony to expose the absurdity of bigotry and to highlight the harm it causes. He also uses the book to advocate for tolerance and understanding, arguing that people should be judged on their individual merits rather than their group affiliations.Overall, Bigotry: A Satire In Hudibrastic Verse is a witty and thought-provoking work that uses humor to challenge the prejudices of its time. It remains relevant today as a reminder of the dangers of intolerance and the importance of treating others with respect and compassion.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
