PELUFFO, Ana. Pedagogy of Affect in Urbanity and Etiquette Manuals for Girls: 1853-1919. Cuad. CILHA [online]. 2020, vol.21, n.2, pp.25-41. ISSN 1852-9615.
In this article I study the ways in which urbanity and etiquette manuals, published in the second half of the nineteenth-century at both sides of the Atlantic, promoted a pedagogy of affect that aimed at disciplining the emotional lives of nineteenth-century girls. In particular, I focus on the ways in which miniaturized emotions were racialized, feminized and/or masculinized with the goal of building a liberal and heteronormative social order that creolized etiquette maxims from European manuals. The process of domesticating emotions was geared toward encouraging affects that feminized girls while repressing emotions that were considered dangerous for the patriarchal order and the biopolitics of gender.
