释义 | coffeehouse noun[ C ] us/ˈkɔ·fiˌhɑʊs, ˈkɑf·i-/ a small, informal restaurant where people can buy drinks and small meals and where there is sometimes entertainment Examples of coffeehousecoffeehouse The normative association of coffeehouses with egalitarian social interaction is by no means a merely contemporary phenomenon. State power actually played a crucial role in enabling the rise of the coffeehouses, especially through the system of licensing. Notably absent from contemporary marketing texts is the fact that some of those coffeehouses were offlimits to women. The public sphere also included institutions such as coffeehouses, salons, museums and, in the case of music, the public concert hall and opera house. And in the tradition of the coffeehouse, it's also the chance to immerse yourself in eclectic and enduring music while you sip your favorite coffee. The political survival of the new institution is attributed to the ways in which public house licensing both regulated and also legitimated the coffeehouse. The rise of the coffeehouse was successful because the coffeehouse-keepers could convincingly represent their occupation as an innocent trade, rather than an inherently seditious one. The demographic segmentation of the coffeehouse market is thus not simply a matter of choice, but also of economic, racial, and geographic constraint. Debates in coffeehouses, which had been very popular social meeting places since the 1630s, could set people against one another. Such questions have been argued over almost from the very inception of the coffeehouse phenomenon. Along the opposite side of the square, printers, wine shops and coffeehouses catered to the tastes of the polite and fashionable. While the king refrained from pushing through an immediate revocation of coffeehouse licensing, he reserved the right to do so in the future. The evidence presented here suggests that the legitimation of the coffeehouse was accomplished in a much more complex manner. For example, what kinds of topics are deemed appropriate in coffeehouses and other "casual" conversational settings, and what topics are excluded? Just over 15 coffeehouses had been established by 1728, and later their number was restricted to 25. See all examples of coffeehouse These examples are from corpora and from sources on the web.
