Society

A society is a group of people involved in persistent social interaction, or a large social grouping sharing the same geographical or social territory, typically subject to the same political authority and dominant cultural expectations. Societies are characterized by patterns of relationships (social relations) between individuals who share a distinctive culture and institutions; a given society may be described as the sum total of such relationships among its constituent members. In the social sciences, a larger society often evinces stratification or dominance patterns in subgroups.

Insofar as it is collaborative, a society can enable its members to benefit in ways that would not otherwise be possible on an individual basis; both individual and social (common) benefits can thus be distinguished, or in many cases found to overlap.

A society can also consist of like-minded people governed by their own norms and values within a dominant, larger society. This is sometimes referred to as a subculture, a term used extensively within criminology.

  • Society (play)

    Society was an 1865 comedy drama by Thomas William Robertson regarded as a milestone in Victorian drama because of its realism in sets, costume, acting and dialogue. Unusually for that time, Robertson both wrote and directed the play, and his innovative writing and stage direction inspired George Bernard Shaw and W. S. Gilbert.

    Origins

    The play originally ran at the Prince of Wales's Theatre, Liverpool, under the management of Mr A. Henderson, opening on 8 May 1865. It was recommended to Effie Wilton, the manager of the Prince of Wales's Theatre in London's West End, by H. J. Byron, where it ran from 11 November 1865 to 4 May 1866 Robertson found fame with his new comedy, which included a scene that fictionalized the Fun gang, who frequented the Arundel Club, the Savage Club, and especially Evans's café, where they had a table in competition with the Punch 'Round table'. The play marked the London debut of Squire Bancroft, who went on to marry Effie Wilton in 1867 and become her co-manager.

    So Yesterday

    by: Hilary Duff

    You can change your life - if you wanna
    You can change your clothes - if you wanna
    If you change your mind
    Well, that's the way it goes
    But I'm gonna keep your jeans
    And your old black hat - cause I wanna
    They look good on me
    You're never gonna get them back
    At least not today, not today, not today
    'cause
    If it's over, let it go and
    Come tomorrow it will seem
    So yesterday, so yesterday
    I'm just a bird that's already flown away
    Laugh it off let it go and
    When you wake up it will seem
    So yesterday, so yesterday
    Haven't you heard that I'm gonna be okay
    You can say you're bored - if you wanna
    You can act real tough - if you wanna
    You can say you're torn
    But I've heard enough
    Thank you... you made my mind up for me
    When you started to ignore me
    Do you see a single tear
    It isn't gonna happen here
    At least not today, not today, not today
    'cause
    If you're over me, I'm already over you
    If it's all been done, what is left to do
    How can you hang up if the line is dead
    If you wanna walk, I'm a step ahead
    If you're moving on, I'm already gone
    If the light is off then it isn't on
    At least not today, not today, not today
