CHAPTER.I. Snob Before and After Thackeray and William Thackeray’s biography.

1.1.Snob Before and After Thackeray.


There are many possible connections between words. Linguists discovered so-called sound correspondences in the 19th century. For instance, the t-th alternation between the two languages is governed by "law," with English having three and French having trois. Because of how powerful this rule is, no two words that begin with t in either French or English may actually be cognates. In actuality, the words touch and toucher are unrelated; the French term toucher is the one that inspired the English word touch, not the other way around. Similar correspondences between vowels have been found. Language is not mathematics, and words are not advancing warriors. Even if they defy sound correspondences, we routinely use phrases that are similar. There is no "law" that governs the alternation of o and u in Modern English, but English cob seems to be connected to cub in any of its various connotations. Hundreds of words resemble club members rather than family members (club members dine together and are familiar with one another, but they have different parents), kids living in the same orphanage (they share the same clothes and routines, but the union is made up), or even mushrooms growing on a stump. Academics are uncomfortable with this situation because it opens the door to arbitrary etymologizing once they leave the safe refuge of predicted sound correspondences. Suddenly, they find themselves in the 18th century (or later), before lookalikes could be compared.
The subsequent derivations of god and rabbit from good and rub, respectively, caused little controversy. We will see that the term "snoborigin "'s is not very difficult if we continue to live in a word orphanage rather than a family. Even a rough estimate of the noun's antiquity cannot be made because there are no references to it before 1776. The fact that it is thought to have originated in the north of England, as per the records, neither disproves nor demonstrates that Middle English borrowed it from Scandinavian. Several Scandinavian words that had been widely used in the north since the Viking attacks startlingly late were introduced to The Standard. One of them, slang, has a rich history as opposed to the history of snob. The words are defined as follows: ""shoemaker; cobbler's apprentice" (1781); "a townsman, anyone not a gownsman (that is, a student) in Cambridge" (1796); "a person belonging to the ordinary or lower classes of society; one having no pretensions to rank or gentility; one who has little or no breeding or good taste, a snob" are all attested, with the dates in parentheses referring to their first known publication in print. Despite the fact that some dialects still refer to cobblers as "snobs," "The majority of English speakers can only recall it from a recent context. The words are defined as follows: ""shoemaker; cobbler's apprentice" (1781); "a townsman, anyone not a gownsman (that is, a student) in Cambridge" (1796); "a person belonging to the ordinary or lower classes of society; one having no pretensions to rank or gentility; one who has little or no breeding or good taste, a snob" are all attested, with the dates in parentheses referring to their first known publication in print. Despite the fact that some dialects still refer to cobblers as "snobs," "The majority of English speakers can only recall it from a recent context. An annual called The Keepsake, which came before Christmas books, was initially released in the US many years ago. The 1831 yearbook has the phrase "Sir Samuel Snob—that was his name—frown." The words are defined as follows: ""shoemaker; cobbler's apprentice" (1781); "a townsman, anyone not a gownsman (that is, a student) in Cambridge" (1796); "a person belonging to the ordinary or lower classes of society; one having no pretensions to rank or gentility; one who has little or no breeding or good taste, a snob" are all attested, with the dates in parentheses referring to their first known publication in print. Despite the fact that some dialects still refer to cobblers as "snobs," "The majority of English speakers can only recall it from a recent context. An annual called The Keepsake, which came before Christmas books, was initially released in the US many years ago. The 1831 yearbook has the phrase "Sir Samuel Snob—that was his name—frown.". Historically, cobblers claimed ownership of the upper leathers of boots and shoes, whereas shoemakers claimed ownership of the soles (I use the terms "shoemaker" and "cobbler" interchangeably here and below). The press and literature of the 19th century made infrequent mention of "two great parts of mankind, nobs and snobs." An 1831 newspaper story claims that the honest snobs now possess the dirty seats that the nobs once held. In British provincial English from a century ago, a strikebreaker, or scab as they are known in the United States, was called a knobstick, blacknob, knob, and nob. This time, "nobs" are shown to be deceitful. Nothing suggests that the word "nob" with the sound sprefixed attached is the etymon (source) of the term "snob," despite the fact that in regional speech the sound is regularly appended to all kinds of nouns (thus the secondary tie between slang and language, for example). Both the words "snob" and "cobbler" contain the group "ob," although this coincidence is probably also insignificant. The fact that the word "cobbler" first appears in our manuscripts does not prove that it represents the word's original definition. More likely, the starting point was "a vulgar person," with "cobbler" chosen as the archetype for vulgarity. When the gownsmen made fun of the townspeople, Cambridge students must have been considering this message in the back of their minds. In Eaton and Oxford, locals were referred to as cads. Before it evolved to signify "townsman" and "an ill-bred person," the word "cadet," or the abbreviation cad, meant "an unbooked passenger on a coach; helper to a coachman; omnibus conductor; confederate." It could possibly have meant "the youngest of a litter; an odd-job man" in various dialects. Cobblers and their apprentices are no more "vulgar" than conductors and their helpers. Regardless of age or origin, it is unclear how or why the term "snob" came to be used to designate someone with bad breeding. Sn- shares a lot of similarities with gl- and sl- since they are all sound metaphorical in Germanic languages and regularly appear in expressions meaning "glitter" and "glow" (which frequently appears in words for "slime" and other slovenly and sleazy things). In several words that refer to cutting (see snip, snap, and snub) and pointy objects, such "nose" (see snout), the initial sn- can be found. A few that have the meaning "fool, dolt, idiot" but have the structure sn-p stand out among the Scandinavian words that resemble the word "snob." Making an educated assumption would not be helpful even though the connection between cutting, snapping, and sniffing and ignorance is not immediately obvious. The sn-p person may have been called a fool due to his unsightly "snout" or stunted growth ("snubbed" by nature). Snotty persons tend to be "arrogant, supercilious," in addition to having an excessive amount of mucus in their noses. It's impossible to say for sure, but it's probable that snotty "arrogant" is just a different way of saying snobby "snouty," unrelated to snot. The Old Icelandic word snotr, which has carried over into Modern Icelandic to signify "clever, wise," has cognates in several Germanic languages. The origin of Snotr is still unknown. In any event, someone with a sensitive nose picks up on details that others miss, which leads to the development of intelligence. The distinction between "smart" and "stupid," both historically and in the real world, is negligible. A warm welcome from the sn-club. Its precise roots are a little fuzzy, although it includes the word "snob." It seems that when it originally arose, it was utilized to indicate a person of low social standing. Despite appearing to be a northern word, the word "snob" does not quite sound like any Scandinavian noun or verb and might have come from England. Although it is descended from nob, it is not, and its connection to cobblers is mostly coincidental. Although snub and snob are cognates, it is unclear from their relationship where snob originated. According to rumors, Snob is an acronym for sine nobilitate or sub nob, both of which were first introduced around 1850. If the graduate wasn't an aristocracy, those words are said to have appeared on their matriculation records at Cambridge, Oxford, or Eaton. According to Skeat, a long-time instructor at Cambridge, this legend is a poor joke.

1.2. William Thackeray’s biography.


William Makepeace Thackeray was an English novelist who was born on July 18, 1811, in Calcutta, India, and passed away on December 24, 1863, in London, England. His two early 18th-century novels, Vanity Fair (1847–48) and The History of Henry Esmond, Esq. (1852), are best known. The sole son of Richmond Thackeray, a representative of the East India Company, was named Thackeray. After his father passed away in 1815, Thackeray was sent back to England in 1816. His mother accompanied him in 1820 after she wed (1817) an engineering officer she had fell in love with before finding Richmond Thackeray. Thackeray enrolled at Charterhouse, a public (private) school in London, in 1822 after attending a number of grammar schools. He led a rather lonely and unpleasant existence there. He was happy when he was a student at Trinity College in Cambridge. Without getting a diploma, he left Cambridge in 1830 and pursued legal studies at the Middle Temple in London from 1831 to 1833. His letters and several of his early writings, which are playfully and fiercely illustrated, are examples of his creative ability. Later, he looked into painting as a profession. His current activities have a dilettante appearance, which is appropriate for a young man who, in 1832, got £20,000 from his father upon attaining adulthood. He swiftly squandered his wealth, nevertheless, as a result of his gambling, foolish speculations, and bad investments. While pursuing his studies in art in Paris in 1836, he wed a lowly Irish woman, and his stepfather bought a newspaper so that he could continue serving as its correspondent. After the paper's failure (1837), he accompanied his wife back to Bloomsbury, London, where he established himself as a dedicated and successful professional journalist. After her last confinement, Mrs. Thackeray had mental sickness in 1840, and one of her three daughters died infancy in 1839. After her husband's passing, she spent a considerable amount of time in the country with friends where she never really recovered. Actually a widower who lived primarily in clubs, Thackeray gradually started to spend more and more time with his daughters, for whom he acquired a mansion in London in 1846. After his book Vanity Fair was serialized in 1847–1848, Thackeray rose to fame and fortune, and from that point on, he was a well-known author in England. His letters contain details of his one serious romantic partnership with Jane Brookfield in his later years. When Thackeray experienced "widowerhood," a period in which he lacked an emotional focus in his life, he took solace in her since she was the wife of a friend from their time at Cambridge. When Henry Brookfield urged in 1851 that their passionate but platonic friendship end, the author had not felt such anguish since his wife's descent into insanity. Thackeray attempted to find comfort by going to the United States to offer lectures on The Four Georges and The English Humorists of the 18th Century (1852-53; published 1853) But after 1856, he moved to London. He unsuccessfully sought for politics in 1857, engaged in a confrontation with Dickens in the infamous "Garrick Club Affair" (1858), and founded and served as editor of The Cornhill Magazine in 1860. After his death in 1863, a bust honoring him was built at Westminster Abbey. The journal was founded in the 19th century to meet the demand for family reading material from the growing middle class. In the late 1830s, Thackeray became well-known for his writings for Punch, The New Monthly Magazine, and Fraser's Magazine on a variety of topics. He wrote either anonymously or under the pen names Mr. Michael Angelo Titmarsh, Fitz-Boodle, The Fat Contributor, or Ikey Solomons. The best of these early writings were collected in Miscellanies by him. These books include The Yellowplush Correspondence, a young cockney footman's memoirs and journal written in his own language and style; The History of Samuel Titmarsh and the Great Hoggarty Diamond (1841), an earlier account of the young married life described in Philip; Major Gahagan (1838-1899), a fantasy of soldiering in India; Catherine (1839–40), a parody of the well-known "Newgate novels" of romanticized crime and low life; and The. A series of writings titled The Snobs of England, by One of Themselves (1846–1877) was effectively released in Punch. It is made up of sketches of Londoners and displays Thackeray's talent for quick character analyses. The Rose and the Ring, Thackeray's Christmas book for 1855, is still a wonderful source of amusement today. He had a gift for writing light rhymes and songs.
