 Rake : search word
Closely related to the rake is the cad; to call the character a rake calls attention to his promiscuity and wild spending of money; to call the character a cad implies a callous seducer who coldly breaks his victim's heart.
During the Restoration period 1660-1700, the word was used in a glamorous sense: the Restoration rake is a carefree, witty, sexually irresistible aristocrat typified by Charles II's courtiers the Earl of Rochester and the Earl of Dorset, who combined riotous living with intellectual pursuits and patronage of the arts.
After the reign of Charles II, and especially after the Glorious Revolution of 1688, the cultural perception of the rake took a dive into squalor.
