O consumo de álcool segundo as gravuras Beer Street e Gin Lane de William Hogarth e as obras de John Wesley: convergências e diferen？as

the article compares william hogarth's gin lane and beer street with texts by his contemporary john wesley, spiritus rector of the methodist movement. although hogarth had portrayed the methodist religious movement in some of his prints as dangerously enthusiastic, both men defended a similar agenda concerning alcohol consumption. the similarities in their two ways of understanding the issue can be explained by culturally established customs, while distinct social outlooks can account for their differences.
