Ubiór jako temat społecznej refleksji – dyskurs galicyjski w latach 1850–1914

Dress as an element of everyday life is an important subject in social discourse. One of the basic issues is its function: practicality, aesthetic qualities and ethics. The discussion on dress is taking place both in private and in public space. The information channels are advertisements, shops and the press. Also the linguistic plane is important here, as it reflects social conventions. The above mentioned phenomena have been described here in the light of source material on Galicia between 1850 and 1914.
