Artesanos de servicio: Apreciaciones sobre los Barberos, Sangradores, Sacamuelas

Abstract

Barbers over time, have left a trail which is little appreciated. The present account tries to enhance its name, observing it briefly from several aspects: guitar player and singer, navigator and craftsman; trying to break the belief that they were uncultured and uneducated people. There will also be an approach to the barbers who worked in our city “Cuenca de los Andes” from the sixteenth century until its extinction in the twentieth century.
