Zustand: Nuevo. Este libro fue publicado por primera vez en 1854 y está basado en una conferencia dictada por Thomas S. Gowing en la ciudad de Ipswich, en Reino Unido. Desde el corazón de la Inglaterra victoriana, Gowing intenta explicar al mundo por qué es importante para los hombres mantener sus barbas. Podemos imaginarlo haciendo grandes alocuciones y defendiendo con vehemencia el uso de la barba como un signo de identidad. En nuestros tiempos, el uso de la barba mantiene su vigencia y confiere al hombre atributos de fortaleza, masculinidad, madurez, salud, autoconfianza y de estatus social. Cada atributo puede tener una infinidad de matizaciones pero, en cualquier caso, la barba, en cualquiera de sus formas, es una expresión de la personalidad de quien la lleva. No en vano, para Gowing, una investigación minuciosa demostraría que el crecimiento y la caída de ese rasgo natural ha tenido más influencia en el progreso y la declinación de las naciones de lo que hasta ahora se ha sospechado.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'The absence of Beard is usually a sign of physical and moral weakness.' 'Take two drawings of the head of a lion, one with and the other without the mane. You will see how much of the majesty of the king of the woods, as well as that of the lord of the earth, dwells in this free-flowing appendage.' 'There is scarcely a more naturally disgusting object than a beardless old man. The Beard keeps gradually covering, varying and beautifying, and imparts new graces even to decay, by heightening all that is still pleasing, veiling all that is repulsive.' This eccentric Victorian book argues a strong case for the universal wearing of a beard - that essential symbol of manly distinction since ancient times. Thomas S. Gowing contrasts the vigour and daring of bearded men through history with the undeniable effeminacy of the clean-shaven. He reminds the modern man that 'ladies, by their very nature, like everything manly', and cannot fail to be charmed by a 'fine flow of curling comeliness'. Gowing's book is now republished for the first time since 1850, accompanied by illustrations of impressive beards from history.…
