Arte barroco y vida cotidiana en el mundo hispánico

Critical texts on the diverse cultural practices in the Hispanic World where the artistic manifestations of the Baroque are revealed as essential references to know the plasticity and flexibility of the multiple forms of the daily life. "In this book, the researchers consider that the history of everyday life should not necessarily be a vulgar historicism, a return to vulgar and anecdotal positivism, or even an exaltation of the routine of everyday life -as a defining element- in the face of exceptional tensions. Because if everyday life could pass with a semblance of immobility and under the cloak of Catholic discipline, the changes happened constantly and the transgressions were more frequent than exceptional."
