Resumen
[por] O modo de se vestir é um aspecto absolutamente
desimportante hoje nas análises de ciência política. Não foi sempre assim. Os estudos sobre
a sociedade já se debruçaram sobre questões
que hoje são ignoradas ou, mesmo, tidas como
preconceituosas. Por exemplo, a frenologia,
estudo de como o clima e a geografia influenciam na personalidade do homem e se esboçam
nos seus traços físicos, se apresenta totalmente
racista. Já a vestimenta, mesmo não tendo tido
um juízo de valor negativo, passou à insignificância. Para costumbristas, ou seja, estudiosos
dos costumes e da exterioridade do ser, o modo
de falar, andar, vestir-se, trata-se de uma questão
imprescindível para o desenvolvimento de uma
sociedade. Demonstrar como era este pensamento na Argentina do século XIX é o intuito deste
artigo
[en] Fashion is an issue which is totally unimportant nowadays in the analysis of politics. But it does not mean it has always been like this. There have already been studies on subjects which nowadays are ignored or, even, considered biased. For instance, phrenology, the study of how climate and geography influence man’s personality and expose it through his physical traits, is considered absolutely racist. But vestments, even if they had not been assorted by a negative value judgment, are now insignificant. For costumbristas, scholars who study customs and externality of human being, the manner of speaking, the gait, the way one dresses, fashion is a vital subject for society development. To demonstrate how this thought was in Argentina in the 19th century is what this essay aims.
