"A Renaissance Courtesy-book: Galateo of Manners & Behaviours" by Giovanni della Casa was initially published in the 16th century and served as a manual for all those who wished to fit in among the rich of Venetian high society. Though many of the manners are now outdated, reading this book still offers a look into a gilded past that seems like it's out of a fairytale.
