- Title
Cuerpo, gesto y comportamiento en el siglo XVIII.
- Authors
Bernis, Sofía Rodríguez
- Abstract
The images of the 18th century art show static individuals, about whose movements and mannerisms we know little. Literature relies on the reader's imagination to construct a mental image of gestures, the key to which has been lost over time. This article tries to shape the 18th century social character by studying the fashionable physiques of each period. We have tried to decipher their behaviour, in order to establish the keys to contemporary social esteem.
