A Genealogy of Manners: Transformations of Social Relations in France and England from the Fourteenth to the Eighteenth Century 2nd edition
Jorge Arditi
Arditi's study offers a history of mores from the High Middle Ages to the Enlightenment. Drawing on the ideas of Elias, Foucault and Bourdieu, as well as through analysing courtesy manuals and etiquette books of the times, he examines the relationship between power and social practices and traces how power changes over the centuries.
