| Popis: |
Singing, dancing and letting one's body be enveloped in the sounds of music could be detrimental to one's health if one did not follow the advice proposed in the eighteenth-century domestic medicine manuals that flourished in Hispanic libraries. By analyzing the foundational books of the Public Library of Buenos Aires, we traced how civility, as a critique of customs, was embodied in different variations on the practice of music in domestic medicine books. A review of the historiography on music in Buenos Aires during the viceroyalty of the Río de la Plata (1776-1810) and the early revolutionary years highlights the absence of a discursive production on music. Therefore, we delved into the analysis of the foundational catalog of the Public Library in order to trace what knowledge was available on musical culture among the bibliography that the literate elite donated to the institution. In this first approach, the object will be cut into four medical manuals to understand how music was related to health and in particular to the environment where it was practiced. Medical popularization, as a literary genre, had a relative boom since the mid-eighteenth century when medicinal texts began to be written in Romance languages, instead of Latin, and appealed to reading beyond the university cloisters. |
