Excerpt: ...asked Lord Darrell. 'Yes: she is very clever; very popular at Paris. But I like Eugenie, because she is so good-natured. Her laugh is so hearty.' 'So it is, ' said Lord Squib. 'Do you remember that girl at Madrid, Annesley, who used to laugh so?' 'What, Isidora? She is coming over.' 'But I thought it was high treason to plunder the grandees' dovecotes?' 'Why, all our regular official negotiations have failed. She is not permitted to treat with a foreign manager; but the new ambassador has a secretary, and that secretary has some diplomatic ability, and so Isidora is to be smuggled over.' 'In a red box, I suppose, ' said Lord Squib. 'I rather admire our Adele, ' said the Duke of St. James. 'I really think she dances with more aplomb than any of them.' 'Oh! certainly; she is a favourite of mine.' 'But I like that wild little Ducis, ' said Lord Squib. 'She puts me in mind of a wild cat.' 'And Marunia of a Bengal tiger, ' said his Grace. 'She is a fine woman, though, ' said Lord Darrell. 'I think your cousin, St. James, ' said Lord Squib, 'will get into a scrape with Marunia. I remember Chetwynd telling me, and he was not apt to complain on that score, that he never should have broken up if it had not been for her.' 'But he was an extravagant fellow, ' said Mr. Annesley: 'he called me in at his bouleversement for advice, as I have the reputation of a good economist. I do not know how it is, though I see these things perpetually happen; but why men, and men of small fortunes, should commit such follies, really exceeds my comprehension. Ten thousand pounds for trinkets, and nearly as much for old furniture!' 'Chetwynd kept it up a good many years, though, I think, ' said Lord Darrell. 'I remember going to see his rooms when I first came over. You recollect his pearl fountain of Cologne water?' 'Millecolonnes fitted up his place, I think?' asked the young Duke; 'but it was before my time.' 'Oh! yes; little Bijou, ' said Annesley. 'He has done you justice, Duke. I...

Benjamin Disraeli, (1804 - 1881) was a British Conservative politician, writer and aristocrat who twice served as Prime Minister. He played a central role in the creation of the modern Conservative Party, defining its policies and its broad outreach. Disraeli is remembered for his influential voice in world affairs, his political battles with the Liberal leader William Ewart Gladstone, and his one-nation conservatism or "Tory democracy". He made the Conservatives the party most identified with the glory and power of the British Empire. He is as of 2014 the only British Prime Minister of Jewish birth.In the 1840s Disraeli wrote a trilogy of novels with political themes. With Coningsby; or, The New Generation (1844), Disraeli, in Blake's view, "infused the novel genre with political sensibility, espousing the belief that England's future as a world power depended not on the complacent old guard, but on youthful, idealistic politicians." Coningsby was followed by Sybil; or, The Two Nations (1845), another political novel, which was less idealistic and more clear-eyed than Coningsby; the "two nations" of its sub-title referred to the huge economic and social gap between the privileged few and the deprived working classes. The last in Disraeli's political novel trilogy was Tancred; or, The New Crusade (1847), promoting the Church of England's role in reviving Britain's flagging spirituality.

Benjamin Disraeli was a British politician who twice served as the Prime Minister and also became the Earl of Beaconsfield. Disraeli is noted for being influential as a politician and as a novelist.

Excerpt: ...to an ambush and countless odds. Do you think a man who charges through a defile crowned with matchlocks, and shoots men through the head, as I am told he did, in the name of Christ, will owe his freedom to my Jewish charity? He will burn the Temple first. This young man has the sword of Gideon. You know little of the world, Eva, and nothing of young Englishmen. There is not a race so proud, so wilful, so rash, and so obstinate. They live in a misty clime, on raw meats, and wines of fire. They laugh at their fathers, and never say a prayer. They pass their days in the chase, gaming, and all violent courses. They have all the power of the State, and all its wealth; and when they can wring no more from their peasants, they plunder the kings of India.' 'But this young Englishman, you say, is pious?' said Eva. Ah! this young Englishman; why did he come here? What is Jerusalem to him, or he to Jerusalem? His Intendant, himself a prisoner, waits here. I must see him; he is one of the people of my patron, which proves our great friend's interest in this youth. O day thrice cursed! day of a thousand evil eyes! day of a new captivity

Anti-Coningsby V1-2: Or The New Generation Grown Old is a two-volume book written by Benjamin Disraeli and published in 1844. The book is a political satire that criticizes the Whig Party and their policies. The title is a reference to Coningsby, a novel written by Disraeli that was a defense of the Tory Party. In Anti-Coningsby, Disraeli portrays the Whigs as a group of self-serving politicians who have lost touch with the needs of the people. He argues that the Whigs are more interested in maintaining their own power than in serving the public good. Disraeli also criticizes the Whigs for their economic policies, which he believes are detrimental to the country's prosperity. The book is divided into two volumes, with the first volume focusing on the political and economic issues of the day, while the second volume is more philosophical in nature. In the second volume, Disraeli reflects on the nature of society and the role of government in shaping it. He argues that society is constantly evolving and that the government must adapt to meet the changing needs of the people. Overall, Anti-Coningsby V1-2: Or The New Generation Grown Old is a biting critique of the Whig Party and their policies.
