Espejito, Espejito -Z [Spanish]

By Maura Gancitano

Is it possible to escape the tyranny of beauty? Beauty is something very specific to which one must adapt: a certain way of dressing, of eating, of speaking, of walking. It is not a purely aesthetic question, but a political technique for exercising power. Let's think about it: there have always been different aesthetics and sensibilities, but recently the cult of beauty has become a prison. Now it is an obsession, a disease, an unattainable myth, but when did this happen? Who drove this change? For what reason? In this book, Maura Gancitano tells the story of a myth as old as the world and shows us how the discoveries of philosophy, anthropology, social psychology and data science can destroy an illusion that still prevents us from listening to and following our authentic desires and living our bodies freely.
