GOLDWASER YANKELEVICH, Nathalie R.. Fashion and female figures: Topics to read Domingo Sarmiento at nation founding moments in Argentina. Civilizar [online]. 2015, vol.15, n.29, pp.59-72. ISSN 1657-8953.

In this paper l it is stated that in the first half of the nineteenth century, the woman was invisible in the foundation of the nation in Argentina, qua subject of political rights. However, the intelligentsia of that time notices she was a factor of transformation of new trends but also of conservation of certain customs. Domingo F. Sarmiento has left inescapable evidence of the place of figures of women not only in terms of styles, clothing and customs, but also in cultural, social and political developments. Fashion, in turn, was part of the problems of the time: the tension between civilization and barbarism, the differences between the sexes and their problematic relationship of equality and freedom
