In this satirical poem, John Bull takes aim at the pretensions and absurdities of the British cultural elite. He skewers everything from philosophical speculations to fashionable hairstyles, showing how these trends are often more about self-promotion and social climbing than genuine intellectual inquiry. With wit and verve, Bull exposes the hollowness at the heart of high society.
