SOARES, Carmen Lucia. Education of the body: notes for the historicity of a notion. Educ. Rev. [online]. 2021, vol.37, e76507.  Epub 05-Ago-2021. ISSN 1984-0411.  https://doi.org/10.1590/0104-4060.76507.

This paper assumes the hypothesis that an education of the body is produced, in the long-term, by different subjects and institutions for the purpose of creating common gestures and uses of the body, aiming at taking care of oneself, one’s appearance and, moreover, the protection of one’s strengths. In this sense, this education produces, in the long-term, advices, prescriptions, regulations on the body and, therefore, establishing educational processes. This text examines and analyses some of these educational processes captured in a set of sources constituted by religious texts, treatises on painting, romances, treatises on good manners and civility produced between the 12th and the 18th centuries. The brief analysis presented here shows the existence of an abundance of references about the body and the gestures in these records, constituting undoubtedly an adequate starting point to outline notes on the historicity of the notion of education of the body.
