What is Newman's stance on being a gentleman? What is his stance on virtue? What does Chesterfield seem to value: gentlemanly behavior or moral behavior? Would Newman agree or disagree with Chesterfield's advice to his son ?
Read John Henry Newman " Knowledge and Virtue" starting from the paragraph " Knowledge is one thing, virtue is another .... the passion and the pride of man." Lord Chesterfield's Letter to His Son London, October 16 1747 starting from " Dear Boy: the art of pleasing .... if you reap the advantage. Adieu." PLEASE HELP ME!

Hard to understand how? The words are too big? The language is unusual?

Help how? I am not going to do your homework for you.

Here are the questions you are to answer:

1. What is Newman's stance on being a gentleman? That is, what does he say makes a man a gentleman?

2. What is his stance on virtue? That is, what does he say makes a man virtuous, or good?

3. What does Chesterfield seem to value: gentlemanly behavior or moral behavior?

4. Would Newman agree or disagree with Chesterfield's advice to his son?
