Na presente dissertação propusemo-nos estudar os objectos, os interiores e as vivĂȘncias das casas das elites lisboetas no perĂodo de 1750 a 1830. TentĂĄmos compreender as transformaçÔes polĂticas e econĂłmicas ocorridas naquele perĂodo de tempo, os hĂĄbitos sociais, as expressĂ”es do gosto e modernidade, apurar Ăcones de ostentação e aparato, integrando-os no espaço domĂ©stico. Numa perspectiva abrangente, cruzĂĄmos vĂĄrias dimensĂ”es do patrimĂłnio, nĂŁo privilegiando nenhuma delas, antes preferindo permanecer atentos aos sinais de todas.
Estas residĂȘncias, que ao longo do sĂ©culo XVIII ainda se caracterizam por uma organização interior onde prevalece a interdependĂȘncia dos diversos compartimentos, tenderĂŁo, lentamente, no Ășltimo quartel de Setecentos, a criar trĂȘs grandes zonas que acolhem o aparato, a sociedade e a intimidade, procurando distinguir e racionalizar espaços em função de novas sociabilidades emergentes.
Os mĂșltiplos objectos que existem nas casas tambĂ©m se modificam, em função das novas necessidades sociais. Estes bens, para alĂ©m de representantes de uma sociabilidade crescente, tornam-se expoentes de novos hĂĄbitos, de Ăąmbito alargado, que vai desde a alimentação e as bebidas atĂ© Ă higiene, Ă dança, aos jogos, Ă mĂșsica ou Ă escrita, entre outros.
Constatamos que as muitas transformaçÔes ocorridas ao longo da segunda metade do século XVIII e primeiro quartel de Oitocentos, a par dos novos modelos de sociabilidade ensaiados pelas principais figuras de elite, anunciam os modos de vida e as casas da Lisboa contemporùnea.
The aim of this research is to study the objects, the interior and the ways of living in the houses of Lisbon elites in the period from 1750 to 1830. We tried to understand the political and economic changes taking place in that period of time, social behaviors, expressions of taste and modernity, to identify ostentation and pomp icons, integrating them in the home. In a comprehensive approach we crossed over several dimensions of heritage, not favoring any of them, on the contrary choosing to pay special attention to the signals of all. These houses which over eighteenth century are characterized by an inner organization where prevails the interdependence of the various compartments, tend slowly in the last quarter of the eighteenth century to create three major areas accommodating the pomp, social life and intimacy, while aiming to differentiate and to rationalize spaces accordingly to new emerging forms of sociability. Multiple objects that exist in the houses also change in response to new social needs. These goods as well as representatives of an increasing sociability, become exponents of new habits, broad in scope, ranging from food and beverages to hygiene, from dance and games, to music or writing, amongst others. We found that many changes occurred during the second half of the eighteenth century and the first quarter of the nineteenth century, along with the new sociability patterns experienced by major elite figures, announce the livelihoods and homes of contemporary Lisbon.
