It was part of the day to visit a bath house after work, even for normal craftsmen. They often got a special wage for it, called "bad geld" (bath money, there are many documents remained), and lots of prints and paintings of these times are depicting bath house sceneries. It was quite a popular thing.<br /><br />The thought that water makes you ill derives from the baroque and rococo era (roughly about 1700 and later), and lasted "just" about a 100 years.Milkyrosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13020899880910684643noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6023134183255884485.post-52472376177417445652013-01-29T21:34:54.348-08:002013-01-29T21:34:54.348-08:00Thank you for sharing!

I think what makes these routines and recipes surprising is that it defies stereotypes of old-timey remedies like Snake Oil (maybe this was just more commonplace in the West where communication was much slower; on second note, it wasn't until after this period that miracle medicine was scrutinized by undercover journalists).<br /><br /> I'm glad that you made a post about this period because I'm a fan of learning about methods of beauty and health routines/recipes around the world and throughout time ( in particular in Mediterranean countries from ancient civilizations), and now I have a new time and place to research (there really ought to be a book dedicated to the history of world beauty!).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6023134183255884485.post-25515431374091748962013-01-23T13:33:20.750-08:002013-01-23T13:33:20.750-08:00These sound very interesting.
