Abstract

These essays offer scholars, teachers, and students a new basis for discussing attitudes toward, and technological expertise concerning, water in antiquity through the early Modern period, and they examine historical water use and ideology both diachronically and cross regionally. Topics include gender roles and water usage; attitudes, practices, and innovations in baths and bathing; water and the formation of identity and policy; ancient and medieval water sources and resources; and religious and literary water imagery. The authors describe how ideas about the nature and function of water created and shaped social relationships, and how religion, politics, and science transformed, and were themselves transformed by, the manipulation of, uses of, and disputes over water in daily life, ceremonies, and literature. Contributors are Rabun Taylor, Sandra Lucore, Robert F. Sutton, Jr., Cynthia K Kosso, Kevin Lawton, Evy Johanne Håland, Hélène Cazes, Alexandra Cuffel, Mark Munn, Brenda Longfellow, Gretchen Meyers, Sara Saba, Scott John McDonough, Etienne Dunant, E. J. Owens , Mehmet Taşlıalan, Deborah Chatr Aryamontri, John Stephenson, Lin A. Ferrand, Paul Trio, Anne Scott, Misty Rae Urban, Ruth Stevenson, Charles Connell, Alyce Jordan, Ronald Cooley, and Irene Matthews.

Abstract

"How often did our ancestors bathe? How often did they wash their clothes and change them? What did they understand cleanliness to be? Why have our hygienic habits changed so dramatically over time? In short, how have we come to be so clean? The Clean Body explores one of the most fundamental and pervasive cultural changes in Western history since the seventeenth century: the personal hygiene revolution. In the age of Louis XIV bathing was rare and hygiene was mainly a matter of wearing clean underclothes. By the late twentieth century frequent - often daily - bathing had become the norm and wearing freshly laundered clothing the general practice. Cleanliness, once simply a requirement for good health, became an essential element of beauty. Beneath this transformation lay a sea change in understandings, motives, ideologies, technologies, and practices, all of which shaped popular habits over time. Peter Ward explains that what began as an urban bourgeois phenomenon in the later eighteenth century became a universal condition by the end of the twentieth, touching young and old, rich and poor, city dwellers and country residents alike. Based on a wealth of sources in English, French, German, and Italian, The Clean Body surveys the great hygienic transformation that took place across Europe and North America over the course of four centuries."--

Abstract

Encombrement des espaces, netteté de la peau, intimité sensible, les critères anciens du propre et du sale ne sont plus ceux d’aujourd’hui. Des faits apparemment identiques ne déclenchent au fil du temps ni les mêmes appréciations ni les mêmes réactions : la transpiration collant à la peau, le cheveu supportant la vermine, l’odeur émanant des corps. La propreté de nos pères, celle de l’Europe classique par exemple, n’était pas la nôtre : elle pouvait exister sans le recours à l’eau, en favorisant quasi exclusivement l’apparence extérieure, l’habit. L’histoire du propre et du sale est ainsi celle d’un lent raffinement. Elle montre comment se fabriquent les seuils du goût et du dégoût. Leurs différences avec les nôtres réveillent la conscience de notre propre sensibilité.Cette histoire est aussi davantage. Elle montre encore comment s’enracinent au plus près des repères corporels, des différences marquantes entre les groupes sociaux. La dentelle blanche de l’aristocrate du Grand Siècle n’a aucun rapport avec le chanvre écru du laboureur. Non que cette différence soit celle de l’ustensile ou de l’accessoire. Elle est d’abord celle du corps. Elle révèle combien la distance sociale, devenue abîme, tient au sentiment de ne pas avoir le même corps.Cette histoire enfin plonge au cœur de la sensibilité culturelle. Le propre et le sale orchestrent un ordre immédiat du monde. Avec leurs changements temporels bascule, tout simplement, l'horizon des matérialités.
