ETIQUETTE

Etiquette (or manners) are the conventional rules governing personal behaviour in polite society. During the Victorian and Edwardian eras in Britain the rules and rituals of etiquette became so complex and sophisticated that a general revolt against them took place. Today the rules are less laws than guidelines, the most reliable being contained in ' Debrett's' which offers advice on the correct terms of address for royalty and other members of the aristocracy.
