Read the excerpt from act i of the importance of being earnest. jack. of course it’s mine. [moving to him.] you have seen me with it a hundred times, and you have no right whatsoever to read what is written inside. it is a very ungentlemanly thing to read a private cigarette case. algernon. oh! it is absurd to have a hard and fast rule about what one should read and what one shouldn’t. more than half of modern culture depends on what one shouldn’t read. the epigram that algernon uses in his last line provides a critique about how the rules of victorian society were not very strict and were not taken seriously. how members of the upper class were not concerned with the rules of society and rarely followed them. how the rules of victorian society dictated many things, even what was proper to read. how members of high society rarely read books and were not concerned with cultural knowledge.
