What is the Language that uses the most expressions of GALLANTRY in your treatment formulas?

The women Ovid [Pluvius Ovidius Naso 43 BC - 18 AD] addresses are "delicate" creatures, who deserve aesthetic care, who are entitled to the elegance of clothes and jewelry: but in the Poet's sights there are also men, the object of so much seductive attention: they too they must take care of themselves with the same attention: and load the dose, warning the puellae that: “Nec tamen indignum: it vobis cura placendi, cum comptos habeant saecula vestra viros ...”

Dear Juana Maria Arcelus-Ulibarrena, in my personal opinion the most gallant language is French then perhaps Italian.

As to my knowledge that the picture in general portrays some meaning to the spectators but the way in which how they perceive the objects has unique variations among the viewers.

Ordinary people will think that this is kind of picture has some meaning behind that but the poet has something different from the public.

The poetic way of observation and interpretation of the meaning of the picture is totally different. The poet look at it as an art.

Both perceived situations have different languages. The picture is itself self explanatory it's meaning but classical arts has language to explain the meaning.

Dears Drs. Leonardo Cannizaro and Senepathy Marisennayya.

I am extremely grateful for your interesting contributions to this Question, so useful for my Research: What is the Language that uses the most expressions of GALLANTRY in your treatment formulas? If you are so kind, could you name some examples?

Dear Dr. Hermann Gruenwald,

I am extremely grateful to you for your moving input into the content of this important Question.

-I-

Very good question, Profª. Dra Juana María Arcelus, but I think the concept of "gallantry" in the Pompeii frescoes, etc. They are -in part- "avant la lettre", since such a concept, according to my humble understanding, was not archived and fully decayed until the times of "COURTLE LOVE" that arises - you know it better than I as a HISTORICAL EXPERT - in the 11th century in western France (Occytania) at the hands of William IX, Duke of Aquitaine, who signs the oldest documents ever found. In them the elements and plots were already located, as well as the conception of love that would later characterize courtly love.

In addition "Galante" and "Galantería" come from "Galán", a term proper to "troubadour and courteous love" ... but, in any case, their best language is that of respectful desire, poetry and music, plus looks Expressives and Non-Verbal Communication, bases of the language of LOVE, WHERE MAYBE THE WORDS ARE ABOVE

-II-

Such a sublimated form of LOVE then becomes transversal in Literature and in the Arts; but also in relations with the LADIES; at least in Spain -and also in many other nations- those of us who have been educated as Knights cannot conceive of another relationship towards women in general and TOWARDS OUR LOVED IN PARTICULAR! -Especially if he is a Marino de Guerra, like me. But this does not imply neither machismo nor underestimation or disparagement of women, ALL THE OPPOSITE !: In our Navy there are women, who face danger and the vicissitudes of the sea equal to or better than any man: Women ARE THE SAME, AND SHOULD BE IT, IN RIGHTS, DIGNITY AND POSSIBILITIES THAN MEN, but WE ARE DIFFERENT (not better or worse: DIFFERENT !! and this is magnificent and that is how God made us).

-III-

For this reason, the "GALANTRY" must be sustained and rooted in respect FOR THE DIGNITY OF WOMEN; and, I repeat, it is not machismo or patriarchal label, and this is not at odds with the DESIRE, obviously carnal, that inspires a lady to her Galán, although "courtly love" perhaps did not want to delve into the id; it is already said that "the courteous does not take away the brave" ... In fact there are "many forms" of love (Eros, Agape, etc.) and various "triangular models of Love" - ​​and we cannot resist the temptation to suggest that you read , among our contributions to "RG" the article "Love and Desire: The unfinished man" and you will be able to see the various scientific contributions in this regard-; but COMPLETE LOVE, in any case, unites EVERY AND EVERY ONE OF THE "FORMS OF LOVE" (not like Achilles towards his "philo etayros" Patroclus, his "true love" for whom he cries and not before Briseyda, "his woman ", for which he only gets irritated and abandons the fight when the Chief of the Achaeans takes her away)

-

-and IV-

. In any case, the language of TOTAL LOVE is that of affection, tenderness, respect and "everything else" (GALANTE IN EVERYTHING), its paradigm being that of the intimate embrace that fuses them and makes them a single body and a single spirit. , as God wanted and planned ... that is why orgasm IS CALLED ECSTASY!!.

Dear Dr. Francisco Javier Gala,

I greatly appreciate your correct answer, which enriches the content of this important Question. My idea of ​​placing a fragment of a 1st century "Affesque" from the AD recovered in the excavations of Pompeii [ITALY] ["Affresque" with Mars and Venus lovers, from Pompeii, VII 9, 47, House of the Marriage of Hercules. Naples, National Archaeological Museum, inv. 9248] is due to the fact that it transmits natural delicacy in the gestures of the hands like no other image, it transmits postural and body harmony, as if wanting to immortalize a moment of gallantry towards a lady with whom he could also be dancing or listening to musical delights.

I consider that the "affresque" was unjustly included among the erotic afrescos of Pompeii [buried by its Volcano on 24 October AD 79] when in fact it deserves a much higher place. Pompeii cultivated a taste for exquisite Gallantry, and Naples itself [whose real name is Parthenope] still cultivates a taste for refined Gallantry today, and many examples could be cited. I invite you to visit the National Archaeological Museum in my splendid Naples, a unique experience in the World.

Dear Dr. Francisco Javier Gala,

Two thousand years have passed since its influence on ancient Pompeii, but the ghost of Publius Ovidius Naso [43 BC - 18 AD] endures in time and appears at the right moment to take revenge for future deviations, the ones we are living today, for example.

Ovid's voice has returned with its magic, and the courage emerges from his strident verses of his Ars Amatoria in the shadow of his volcano Vesuvius where everything is allowed. The important thing is exclusively the final result because, in the end “whoever wants to be happy is in his good reading, there is no certainty about tomorrow”. Ovidio ends up giving master classes on the art of seduction, gallantry, bravery, arguments full of advice enriched with all sorts of detail, with a complete recipe on how to woo her, how to flatter her, how to sublimate her to the woman. A complete manual of perfect seduction for the time in which he lived. All this always with the “maximum GALLANTRY” and without the slightest gesture of arrogance, a lesson for future generations, although he admitted that his science was not an exact science and that every “woman to be conquered” requires a “separate method”. In any case, it recommends in all gallantry innocent deception and innocent pretense with large doses in accordance with correct morals.

As you well observe, Dear Dr. Francisco Javier Gala, with the 11th century and the “Amour Courtois” we arrive at the celebrated vassalage towards women and behind it the classical heritage with Ovid and his Pompeii. There is no doubt that the troubadours read Ovid's Ars Amatoria because in the 11th century the Work of Ovid was given a "revaluation" and to this the sophisticated “trovas Occitanas” were added, effectively giving the best Language that could arise from the respectful desire, respectful gestures and expressive glances of non-verbal communication that left posterity with a rich heritage of turns and phrases that still move us today when we hear or read them.

P.S. The word Gallantry comes precisely from gal which in principle meant joy, and it is likely that the Italian gala and the Spanish gallanthave derived from gal of Celtic origin and from there they have formed gallant: “uomo premuroso di piacere altrui” [Dizionario Tommaseo- Bellini, 1865-1879]

Very dear and very respected Profª. Dra. Arcelus (and I have direct Celtic ancestry through my mother's way; and where does GALA PLACIDIA come from?) :

¿Ars Amatoria o "Ars amandi"?...

I am a humble doctor and not a linguist.

Thanks you!!

My best respects Dear Dr. Francisco Javier Gala.

Equally!!, dear Profª. Dra. Juana María Arcelus-Ulibarrena

Dear Dr. Francisco Javier Gala,

I greatly appreciate that you have suggested reading the following article:

Article El deseo y el amor: el hombre inacabado

as support and scientific contribution in this regard.

My respects.

My deepest respects and thank you, Dear Dr. Francisco Javier Gala for sharing with the Researchers of this Platform the result of your Scientific Research on the important Question discussed here.

Dear Dr. Hermann Gruenwald.

I am extremely grateful to you for your kind and thoughtful response.

My best wishes.

Dear Dr. Francisco Javier Gala,

He sent him a copy of ARS AMATORIA published in Ovid's hometown, Sulmona.

, **Galla Placidia [Constantinople 388-392/Rome 459 AD] was an icon of beauty in her time, when the Visigoth king Alaric I captured her in a Church in Rome where she had hidden during the “Sacco di Roma” [410 AD] was amazed by her beauty and took her as a lover to southern Italy, when Alaric I died mysteriously near the Busento River in Cosenza (Calabria) he and his treasure (along with one of the Graal legends) was buried in that same river, to which they had diverted their course, and Galla Placidia returned with Alaric's brother-in-law, Ataulf, to become queen of Goths in Rome, after marrying him.

Dear Dr. Vadim S. Gorshkov,

You do not know how much I admire your sensitivity and appreciation of those moments when the courtesy of a gentleman, of good principles, upright, manages to demonstrate his abilities in his relationships with others in the Society.

Thanks to you, very dear Dra. Juana María Arcelus for your kind comments and undeserved praise for my modest responses!!

Love is a sublime sentiment that cannot be described in words, so in my opinion, the language of love is sacrifice and dedication, to accept sadness in order to make those we love happy... To accept fear in order to make those we love to feel safe... To cry in order to make them laugh ...To fill our hearts and souls with pain in order to make them live in peace...To rise above self-love for the sake of those we love...If it is dedication and sacrifice, these two qualities cannot be achieved without being associated with respect...Respect for those we love. ...Therefore, it is very possible to love people without seeing them and for them to be far from us, because this is subject to harmony between human beings...Love cannot be a desire because desire is transient, but love is immortal and sublime...But unfortunately, sometimes it brings a lot of pain because not all that we love will be for us...Neither everyone we love will be ours, nor everyone we love is suitable for us...Maybe we meet the ones we dreamed of...And they meet us and we do not find love...Sometimes we see the love and it does not see us...Sometimes love meets us and walks and we do not know why...Sometimes love comes and walks as if it did not comes to us...This remains my humble opinion... My sincere gratitude to all.

Love is nature of human being.

Dears Drs. Manal Hadi Kanaan and Ali F Almehemdi,

Thank you for your valuable contribution to this Question. Which language uses the most GALLANTRY expressions in its treatment formulas?

Could you tell me an example and in what Language is it expressed?

I am extremely grateful to them "a priori".

The story of the poet Jamil and his cousin Buthaina, they are from one tribe... Jamil Buthaina was one of the poets of virgin love, relative to his tribe, Udhara, a tribe that was famous for that kind of pure love, and its people, if they loved, died because they were deprived of their loved ones until it was narrated that a man was asked: “Who are you?” He said, “I am of a people who, if they love, die.” A woman shouted, “I swear, you are from the Uthra tribe.” One of them was asked about the reason for that passion that kills its owner and deep sincerity, and he said that they see eyes that he does not see. Others, meaning that the people of the tribe were characterized by beauty. And when he loved one of them a woman, he would mention her in his poetry, then when it became known that he was engaged to her, her father refused to marry him to her for social reasons, and he would marry her to the first man who proposed to her and agreed to marry her. Buthaina was Jamil's cousin and he loved her when he was young and she was young and did not realize yet, and when he loved Buthaina, he did not write poetry for anyone else and made his heart and poetry for her. Jamil proposed to Buthaina from her father, but he refused and decided to marry her to his first fiancé, who was Nabih Ibn al-Aswad. This made Jamil fascinate her more and agonize over her separation, and she was in an unenviable position, so she must fulfill her husband, and her heart is attached to Jamil...There were many women around Jamil, trying to convince him that there was someone more worthy of his love than her, but he did not see anyone else. When he did not find that there was hope to reach her, he decided to leave for Egypt and said goodbye to Buthaina before his departure. And then he left this world, and when Buthaina heard the news of the death of Jamil bin Muammar, she was deeply saddened by his death. She said these verses, and nothing else was preserved from her:

وإن سلــوي عني يا جميــل لساعــة.. مِــنَ الدَّهر ما جاءت ولا حان حينها

ســـواءٌ عليــنــا يا جميـــلَ بن معمــر.. إن مِـتَّ بأسـاءُ الحياة ولينها

My sincere gratitude to everyone.

Dear Dr. Vaim S. Gorshkov,

I greatly appreciate your interesting contribution to the content of this Question. I take this opportunity to humbly ask you to provide me with detailed information in this regard. Thank you.

For my part, I can tell you, for example, that in the Paleolithic communities of the Basco People there was what was called the Matriarchy, where women as mothers had a central role of political leadership, moral authority, and control of property. and childcare.

Take a look at the following link:

http://www.dantzak.com/en/201911/basque-matriarchism-13428.html

Dears Drs. Thank you for your extraordinary interventions, but, could you tell me an "gestual" example and in what Language is it expressed?

example in gestual french " gestual gallantry":

This dress brings out the idea of the old French tradition of distinction, of “produit de luxe”, and of Galanterie as a high point of it. But at the same time, there is a second sign inside. Michele said that Carte de Tendre was for him “a moving topography of desire”. And this becomes perfectly visible when the dress has been bought by Michelle Obama. When Michelle Obama wore this dress, it became not only a sign of distinction but also a sign that a woman has chosen to make visible that desire should be respectful; that to be desirable means also to be respectable and respected.

PHOTO

For the Television Program, IN FRENCH -although Michelle may have been translated-; In addition to language, within the framework of Verbal Communication, Non-Verbal Communication of complicity, spontaneity and empathy also stands out, although admiration stands out among the presenter and person in charge of the Program ... and something else? (from her to Michelle, not vice versa).

Dears Drs. Manal Hadi Kanahan and Francisco Javier Gala,

I am extremely grateful for your interesting contributions, which enrich and flesh out the Question we are dealing with here.

Thanks to you, dear Dra. Juana María Arcelus

We can have all the means of communication in the world, but nothing, nothing ever equals the human gaze (the language of the eyes)...Silence sometimes provides so many words that we can feel them without hearing any word, but as soon as we pay attention to someone's look...Unfortunately, the language of the eyes and the language of silence is understood only by those who have a pure heart and a delicate sense... Therefore, we must look for an angel because we are beginning to lack these qualities... With great regret...My sincere gratitude.

Dear Dr. Manal Hadi Kanaan

Thank you for your profound observations ..... that touch the SOUL ...

GALLANTRY versus "GALANTUOMO" When a gentleman gives way to you you immediately think that life is wonderful!

Gallantry is not dead, it survives incognito in the increasingly narrow educational ghettos. (Anonymous)

Chivalry is the respect of the woman as a woman, gallantry is the grace of which this respect is clothed. (Anonymous)

In gallantry, nothing is true, but everything is likely. (François Salvat de Montfort)

If I were a gallant poet, I would sing to your eyes such a pure song as on the white marble clear water. (Antonio Machado) SPANISH POET

How gallant, the dark. Turn off the light and turn on the stars. (Anonymous)

In the magnificent thread of this question, beautiful comments and answers have been poured; but, perhaps, one is missing on Love, from Paul's Epistle to the Corinthians, which has been defined, by believers and non-believers, AS THE DESCRIPTION OF LOVE NEVER WRITTEN (nor do Shakespeare's sonnets reach it), just as as coincide from Dante to Gandhi, from Spinoza to Freud, through Marx himself and many others:

"Nothing is more perfect than love !:

Even if I spoke all the languages ​​of men and angels, if I lack love, it would be like a ringing bronze or a ringing bell. Even if I had the gift of prophecy and discovered all mysteries and all science, even if I had so much faith as to move mountains, if I lack love I am nothing. Even if I distributed everything I have and even sacrificed my body, but boasting, if I don't have love, it is useless.

Love is patient and show understanding. Love is not jealous, it does not appear or inflate. He does not act base or seek his own interest, does not allow himself to be carried away by anger and forgets what is bad. He does not rejoice in the unjust, but rejoices in the truth. He endures in spite of everything, believes everything, expects everything and supports everything. Love will never pass. Prophecies will lose their reason for being, tongues will silence and the highest knowledge will no longer serve. Because this knowledge remains very imperfect, and our prophecies are also very limited and when the perfect comes, what is limited will disappear.

When he was a child, he spoke like a child, thought and reasoned like a child. But when I became a man, I put aside the things of a child. So also in the present moment we see things as in a mirror, confusedly, but then we will see them face to face. Now I know in part, but then I will know how I am known.

Now, then, faith, hope and love are valid; all three, but the greatest of these three is love. "

REALLY SUBLIME. THANK YOU!

Gallantry .... a thoughtful behavior at every age group, which originates from the respect, honor, friendship or love of a man towards a woman. These are concrete gestures that first of all express the pleasure of having this woman in our company, trying to make her feel at ease.

Education, respect, attention and elegance are the four columns of the temple of gallantry.

(Fabrizio Caramagna)

The real man is the one who shows himself gallant with all women but only in love with his own.

(Third_Note, Twitter)

Love comes back in a different way:

Kafka and the doll

The international writer Kafka, a year before his death, lived a very beautiful experience, which he wrote about.

In a park in Berlin, a girl caught his attention, crying in a burning sensation, because she had lost her doll. He offered to help her in the search, but he did not find anything, so he suggested that she return to her home and meet her the next day to search again...

But at home, Kafka decided to write a letter on the tongue of the doll to the child, and deliver it to her on time, because he was confident that the doll was lost forever.

The message was:

(My dear friend, please stop crying, I decided to travel to see the world and learn new things. I will tell you in detail about everything that happens to me daily) ..

When they met, he read the message to the little girl who did not stop smiling and rejoicing in her tears.

And this was not the only message, it was the beginning of a series of meetings and letters between them, in which the doll tells the girl about her adventures and her heroics in a fun, beautiful, and attractive manner.

After the adventures ended, Kafka gave the girl a new doll that was completely different from the old one, along with the last message on the doll's tongue:

(Travel has changed me, but this is me) ..

The girl grew up and kept keeping Kafka's doll until one day she discovered another last message that was hidden in her doll's wrist:

The things we love are always prone to lose, but love will always return in a different way !!...So, we should be sure that the love that we have given with a sincere heart will not be lost, and will inevitably return to us ...Because it is pure, white, and everlasting as our pure hearts are...My sincere gratitude to everyone...

In fact, respect, virtue, love, and elegance are all things that children should learn from a young age... Raising a conscious generation is very important to be aware of the importance of these qualities and their positive impact on their lives and in the lives of others around them... Because the life of an individual is not measured by the number of years he lives, but by the number of people he can influence, because our life is like a book... It is not only important who will read this book, but rather who will be affected by it... My sincere gratitude to everyone.

Yes, I think Dr Manal Hadi Kanaan has pointed the most important value that children should start learning from a young age.

Even if times have changed, courtship and gallantry will never go out of fashion are the business card that distinguishes real men from those empty inside. (Anonymous)

EXQUISITE GALLANTRY

JACK VETTRIANO (b. 1951) On the beach..... [oil on canvas]

American writer James Branch Cabell carved out a literary niche of his own with a body of work that combines fantasy, humor, and allegory. The novel Gallantry succeeds marvelously on all three levels. In terms of plot, it's a rollicking action-adventure quest story that fans of fiction set in the medieval era will relish. Thematically, it's a clever send-up of the very notion of gallantry and all of the harm wrought by this complex social code.

Do you think gallantry is opening a door or pouring wine at the table to your woman? No, gallantry is that attention that comes from the soul that makes you listen, understand and support. It is gallant who says to you "I am here for you and I will always be there!" (Anonymous)

GALLANTRY in the Song of Solomon, also called Canticle of Canticles [Song of Songs], an Old Testament book that belongs to third section of Biblical canon, known as the Ketuvim, or "Writings".

CHAPTER 6 [2-12]

Beloved

2 My beloved has gone down to his garden, to the beds of spices, to feed in the gardens, and to gather lilies.

3 I am my beloved’s, and my beloved is mine. He browses among the lilies,

4 You are beautiful, my love, as Tirzah, lovely as Jerusalem, awesome as an army with banners.

5 Turn away your eyes from me, for they have overcome me. Your hair is like a flock of goats, that lie along the side of Gilead.

6 Your teeth are like a flock of ewes, which have come up from the washing; of which every one has twins; no one is bereaved among them.

7 Your temples are like a piece of a pomegranate behind your veil.

8 There are sixty queens, eighty concubines, and virgins without number.

9 My dove, my perfect one, is unique. She is her mother’s only daughter. She is the favorite one of her who bore her. The daughters saw her, and called her blessed; the queens and the concubines, and they praised her.

10 Who is she who looks out as the morning, beautiful as the moon, clear as the sun, and awesome as an army with banners?

11 I went down into the nut tree grove, to see the green plants of the valley, to see whether the vine budded, and the pomegranates were in flower.

12 Without realizing it, my desire set me with my royal people’s chariots.

GALLANTRY "SPRING" SANDRO BOTICELLI [1445 1510]..... the Woman's hair is reddish, purple, like that of the Beloved in the Song of Songs.The theme of the sword on the humerus is also present in the Song of Songs.

GALLANTRY in the Old school mentality I think we can all agree that men were more gallant in their day. At least, that is what it seems. In fact, the men would open the doors to the women, lay their coats on the puddles to help them through, and bow down to them. But then they would act patronizing towards them. Paradoxically, sexism was much worse when gallantry was "in". Women were treated very badly then. Perhaps there is no paradox here. Perhaps the gallantry was an attempt to balance things out ... I'd love to ask an expert on the subject. When it comes to dating, the old-school mentality dictates that the man pays the bill. The rules are clear. A man was expected to be chivalrous. Being a gentleman wasn't old-fashioned then, it was THE style. It was the norm. However, the old-school mentality really ties in with Disney fantasies. Where a man is prince charming and does all the heavy lifting. He's in top physical shape, has money to pay the bill on every date, and he's emotionally stoic, never needing to lean on his wife's shoulder. Many men feel turned off by this mindset. They don't find it appropriate in this age. That brings me to the next point.

GALLANTRY in the New school mentality Today, the idea of ​​paying the bill after dinner is greeted uneasily by men. At least for some. At first, outsiders may think of practitioners of this as rude, raised by wolves. Let's try, for a second, to understand the possible reasoning behind this. The time has changed. Society has changed. It goes without saying that the relationships between men and women have also changed. Sexism is still a big problem in our society, but most will agree (at least publicly, which is a long way from a few years ago) that men and women are equal. On that basis, it stands to reason that women also pay the bill. They also have jobs and we are seeing more and more cases of women earning more than men. If your date earns double your salary, it might make sense for SHE to pick up the tab. Also, some women will even refuse the help of a man who offers to carry their luggage / groceries. The way they see it, they can do it themselves. The New School Mindset is embraced by both men and women.

I agree with Juana Maria Arcelus-Ulibarrena that GALLANTRY as perceived and practiced in the past, if we are to use the lens of gender equality, is arguably sexist and a display of machismo.

Dear Dr. Oswell Namasasu,

Thank you very much for your interesting answer.

GALANTRY in the mentality of today's Generations, does not always consider the idea of ​​paying the bill after dinner and is received with concern for some men who do not value it at all because times have changed, the same society has changed and the relationships between men and women have also changed. The Gallantry issue should not be related to the issue of sexism or machismo, or related to the issue of gender equality. It is for this reason that I placed the Gallantry photo between Queen Elizabeth of England and her son Charles. In my previous answer I limited myself to exposing the subject as it was perceived and practiced in the past and how it is perceived now in the present. This is not to say that I agree with all of it. I believe that the Gallantry should be placed in its true place: "super parts", only in this way can we safeguard the magical feeling that can be perceived in such excellent moments, also with the passage of time.

My respects.

I thank all the RG Researchers for providing interesting thoughts on this attractive, engaging and thoughtful Question. Many thanks!

Alexander the Great's [356 BC-323 BC] relationship with women was asceticism, gallantry, or polygamy? The legend of the Macedonian Alexander the Great was featured in Medieval Literature as a moral example and a role model for the Nobility. His treatment with women runs parallel to his figure as the Great Alexander and his cultural contexts, reinventing him as an ascetic and chaste figure, exalting fidelity to a single woman [his wife Roxane] and in parallel as an ideal of gallantry and courtesy. In each case, their attitude towards women is displayed as a symbol of their political attributes.

BASQUE DANCE AND GALLANTRY

Basque dance reaches the world and its gallantry too. Biarritz is the Basque capital of dance without exception. The National Center for Choreography and the Malandain Ballet Biarritz are based in Biarritz, which also hosts the Maitaldia Dance Festival.

Dear Colleagues,

Healthy gallantry is always consistent with the good customs of those who conceive and practice it within their personal ethics. Following one's own rules of refined gallantry is something of what should never be dispensed with and contributes to improving our inner richness.

"GALLANTRY" IN THE SOUL....

The Kindness is one of the human qualities that best reflects the "human essence" since the kind person has the virtue of being good, benign, benevolent and is sometimes related to the quality of "kindness" [all a true gallantry]. The caring human being has a penchant for doing good to others and does so with affection, understanding and respect.

I propose for this purpose the phrase: "treat others as you want them to treat you", inspired by Plato of Athens, 360 a. C. "May it be given to me to do to others what I would like them to do to me". Following Patón:

"the cause of the origin of the world is the goodness of the" Demiurge" [Timaeus 29 E - 31A] He was good and in a good person there is never any envy for anything. Therefore being far from envy, "He" wants all things to become sacred as much as possible to him. Indeed, God, wanting all things to be good, and that nothing, as far as possible, be bad, taking what was visible and which was not at rest, but moved confusedly and disorderly brought him from disorder to order, judging this totally better than that"

European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen found herself in an uncomfortable situation during the EU’s Africa summit on February 18,2022, when she was ignored by Uganda’s foreign Minister [Ugandan Foreign Minister Jeje Odongo refused him a handshake].The embarrassing incident unfolded during a protocol photo op, that Ursula von der Leyen attended alongside European Council President Charles Michel and France’s President Emmanuel Macron.The official greeted Uganda’s top diplomat Abubakhar Jeje Odongo, who seemingly ignored her and strolled past her to shake hands with the two men, footage shows.The Minister greeted Michel and Macron, engaging in a conversation with the two. Jeje Odongo then stood for the protocol photo, still without acknowledging Ursula von der Leyen. It took an effort from Emmanuel Macron motioning in her direction to draw Odongo’s attention to the Commission President. He then briefly exchanged words with her and left the photo op.

Just the idea of ​​conceiving "galantry" in a character who has committed and continues to commit heinous crimes against Humanity seems to us something absolutely out of order and we can feel it when looking at this photograph. With a single improvised and at the same time indiscreet gesture and an "a posteriori" rejection, this act of courtesy seems "unbelievable" to us. The Chinese Government censored and "blocked" this image of Vladimir Putin gallantly wrapping a shawl around the shoulders of Chinese President Xi Jinping's wife.

At the recent Oscars Awards ceremony, Chris Rock made a bad joke about Jada Pinkett, the wife of Will Smith. Will Smith rose up, walked to Chris and slapped him. On sitting down he shouted an obscenity at Chris Rock. Will Smith's behavior was in both words and action an unacceptable and strange expression of gallantry. https://www.washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/2022/03/28/will-smith-jada-pikett-slap-fallout/

Thank you Dear Dr. Oswell Namasasu for your observation, we have all seen this behavior, but I think we should not confuse Gallantry with "disrespect" or "kindness", and none of those present manifested any act of Gallantry towards Will Smith's wife, nor successively those responsible for the Oscar Awards ceremony. What took place on the night of the Oscars was an absolute lack of respect towards Will Smith's wife, even by Will Smith himself I think.

My respects Dear Dr. Oswell Namasasu ...

You are right Juana Maria Arcelus-Ulibarrena . Will Smith probably thought he was being gallant (i.e. brave, courageous, valiant, macho etc.) when in fact he was not showing any love or respect for his wife but making an absolute fool of himself. As for Chris Rock - the comedian, I have always thought there is a thin line between a joke and an insult and in this case he crossed the line and showed a lot of disrespect. Will Smith's Oscar Award should be withdrawn but I doubt it will be. Hollywood itself promotes violence as entertainment. Many of its Oscar Award winning films portray violence as "the inevitable, the last and, often the first resort in conflicts." See, for example: https://www.researchgate.net/publication/295858980

Yes Dear friend, yes Dear Dr. Oswell Namasasu you are also right, I totally agree with you and I think it all depends on whether or not the Event Organizers are interested in conflicts of interest.

Allow me to ask you for a courtesy or Gallantry on my part, please never associate Gallantry with machismo ["macho"] and forgive my audacity. Thanks a lot

Dear Prof Juana Maria Arcelus-Ulibarrena , I am one of those who "see gallantry as sexism in disguise, nothing more than a form of machismo." https://netivist.org/debate/how-to-treat-a-woman

Dear Dr. Oswell Namasasu I fully respect your opinion but it is not mine at all. With all due respect.

The "soul" is always imperishable Dear Dr. Oswell Namasasu !

The women Ovid [Pluvius Ovidius Naso 43 BC - 18 AD] addresses are "delicate" creatures, who deserve aesthetic care, who are entitled to the elegance of clothes and jewelry: but in the Poet's sights there are also men, the object of so much seductive attention: they too they must take care of themselves with the same attention: and load the dose, warning the puellae that: “Nec tamen indignum: it vobis cura placendi, cum comptos habeant saecula vestra viros ...”

I greatly appreciate your correct answer Dear Dr. Francisco Javier Gala , which enriches the content of this important Question. My idea of ​​placing a fragment of a 1st century "Affesque" from the AD recovered in the excavations of Pompeii [ITALY] ["Affresque" with Mars and Venus lovers, from Pompeii, VII 9, 47, House of the Marriage of Hercules. Naples, National Archaeological Museum, inv. 9248] is due to the fact that it transmits natural delicacy in the gestures of the hands like no other image, it transmits postural and body harmony, as if wanting to immortalize a moment of gallantry towards a lady with whom he could also be dancing or listening to musical delights.

I consider that the "affresque" was unjustly included among the erotic afrescos of Pompeii [buried by its Volcano on 24 October AD 79] when in fact it deserves a much higher place. Pompeii cultivated a taste for exquisite Gallantry, and Naples itself [whose real name is Parthenope] still cultivates a taste for refined Gallantry today, and many examples could be cited. I invite you to visit the National Archaeological Museum in my splendid Naples, a unique experience in the World.

Saturday night fever

The iconic moment in this photo is a rare scenario where a celebrity and a royal are enjoying the moment full of GALANTY. In 1985, before there were even Instagram or TikTok videos, Princess Diana and John Travolta nonchalantly danced together at a White House party, with President Ronald Reagan and his wife Nancy Davis looking on in the background. Diana, the “Princess of the people” was beautiful in a long black dress and a pearl choker and John Travolta, elegant in his tuxedo, does not stop looking at her!

Are gallant gestures still possible today?

But, above all, are they really necessary? Open-hearted reflections on Gallantry We grew up with the myth of courtship and gallantry. Of those somewhat tactical gestures that make us feel at the center of attention and that, after all, we feel a bit like we should. As if they had written a string in our brain that tells us that men, with us, must be gallant. Have you ever really stopped to think about what gallantry is? And in a society where there is a lot of talk about relationship, isn't it a product that has already expired for some time? Let's try to rattle off the question, starting from its definition.

And in a society where there is a lot of talk about sexism, isn't it a product that has already expired for some time? Let's try to rattle off the question, starting from its definition. Meaning of gallantry and the encyclopedias in the past defined Gallantry as "ostentatious and ceremonious kindness towards women, demonstrated in words, attitude and gestures, as an occasional or habitual behavior". they handed down: it is his very definition that contains a kind of favored treatment towards us. Do we really have to continue to carry on a similar discourse, in which we need someone to open the car door for us? Is Gallantry an added value? I recently read this sentence Gallantry is a right of women, and a duty of men. Okay, I admit it: if the man I love pours me a drink at the restaurant, takes me downstairs and waits for me to be in my bed before leaving, I'm glad. But it shouldn't be considered the "package base"? The standard? What would I also do about him if I were to accompany him home at the end of a date? Shouldn't kindness and attention to those we like be genderless? This is not a feminist discourse, much less a sexist one. Because in my head Gallantry is a bit synonymous with education. And that, if you have it, is never occasional. It is not a gesture that is done with the sole purpose of conquering someone. It is part of you. It is not an optional.

GALLANTRY in the Old school mentality I think we can all agree that men were more gallant in their day. At least, that is what it seems. In fact, the men would open the doors to the women, lay their coats on the puddles to help them through, and bow down to them. But then they would act patronizing towards them. Paradoxically, sexism was much worse when gallantry was "in". Women were treated very badly then. Perhaps there is no paradox here. Perhaps the gallantry was an attempt to balance things out ... I'd love to ask an expert on the subject. When it comes to dating, the old-school mentality dictates that the man pays the bill. The rules are clear. A man was expected to be chivalrous. Being a gentleman wasn't old-fashioned then, it was THE style. It was the norm. However, the old-school mentality really ties in with Disney fantasies. Where a man is prince charming and does all the heavy lifting. He's in top physical shape, has money to pay the bill on every date, and he's emotionally stoic, never needing to lean on his wife's shoulder. Many men feel turned off by this mindset. They don't find it appropriate in this age. That brings me to the next point.

GALLANTRY in the New school mentality Today, the idea of ​​paying the bill after dinner is greeted uneasily by men. At least for some. At first, outsiders may think of practitioners of this as rude, raised by wolves. Let's try, for a second, to understand the possible reasoning behind this. The time has changed. Society has changed. It goes without saying that the relationships between men and women have also changed. Sexism is still a big problem in our society, but most will agree (at least publicly, which is a long way from a few years ago) that men and women are equal. On that basis, it stands to reason that women also pay the bill. They also have jobs and we are seeing more and more cases of women earning more than men. If your date earns double your salary, it might make sense for SHE to pick up the tab. Also, some women will even refuse the help of a man who offers to carry their luggage / groceries. The way they see it, they can do it themselves. The New School Mindset is embraced by both men and women.

Postage stamp printed in Cuba shows Gallantry, P.Landaluze, Paintings from the National Museum (1973) serie, circa 1973

Than you Dear Dr. Ildefonso Gustavo Díaz Sandoval for your very interesting contribution! The shrewd look of the Cuban painter of Basque origin Víctor P. of Landaluze through the rite of courting [Gallantry] a couple from the calesero to a mulata [mullato] manages to capture the mutual social aspirations and the “negotiation strategies” within the GALANTRY of the most dispossessed racial sectors of the Cuban population, Landaluze takes great care of the color contrasts between the black character and the mulatto character, effectively making visible the intersectionality between "race" and “class”. In addition to capturing a gallant moment, a clear exercise within the power relations of the time is veiled in its substratum and Landaluzemanages to capture it well by showing the “progress” of the calesero in his "race" if he achieves the love of the "mulatto” and at the same time the “mulatto” ascends in her “socio-classist” status, having him dominated.
