- Lord_Dundreary abstract "Lord Dundreary is a character of the 1858 British play Our American Cousin by Tom Taylor. He is the personification of a good-natured, brainless aristocrat. The role was created on stage by Edward Askew Sothern. The most famous scene involved Dundreary reading a letter from his even sillier brother. Sothern expanded the scene considerably in performance. A number of spin-off works were also created, including a play about the brother.His name gave rise to two eponyms rarely heard today: Dundrearies were a particular style of facial hair taking the form of exaggeratedly bushy sideburns, also called dundreary whiskers. They were popular between 1840 and 1870 and in England were called Piccadilly weepers.\"Dundrearyisms\" were expanded malapropisms in the form of twisted and nonsensical aphorisms in the style of Lord Dundreary (e.g. \"birds of a feather gather no moss\"). These enjoyed a brief vogue.Charles Kingsley wrote an essay entitled, \"Speech of Lord Dundreary in Section D, on Friday Last, On the Great Hippocampus Question\", a parody of debates about evolutionary theory in the form of a nonsensical speech supposed to have been written by Dundreary.".
