Salon (gathering)
A salon is a gathering of people under the roof of an inspiring host, held partly to amuse one another and partly to refine the taste and increase the knowledge of the participants through conversation. These gatherings often consciously followed Horace's definition of the aims of poetry, "either to please or to educate" ("aut delectare aut prodesse est"). Salons, commonly associated with French literary and philosophical movements of the 17th and 18th centuries, were carried on until recently in urban settings.
==Overview==
The salon was an Italian invention of the 16th century which flourished in France throughout the 17th and 18th centuries. The salon continued to flourish in Italy throughout the 19th century. In 16th-century Italy, some brilliant circles formed in the smaller courts which resembled salons, often galvanized by the presence of a beautiful and educated patroness such as Isabella d'Este or Elisabetta Gonzaga.
One important place for the exchange of ideas was the salon. The word ''salon'' first appeared in France in 1664 (from the Italian word ''salone'', itself from ''sala'', the large reception hall of Italian mansions). Literary gatherings before this were often referred to by using the name of the room in which they occurred, like ''cabinet'', ''réduit'', ''ruelle'' and ''alcôve''.〔 ''Dictionnaire des lettres françaises: le XVIIe siècle'', revised edition by Patrick Dandrey, ed. Fayard, Paris, 1996, p. 1149. ISBN 2-253-05664-2〕 Before the end of the 17th century, these gatherings were frequently held in the bedroom (treated as a more private form of drawing room):〔Aronson, Nicole, ''Madame de Rambouillet ou la magicienne de la Chambre bleue'', Fayard, Paris, 1988.〕 a lady, reclining on her bed, would receive close friends who would sit on chairs or stools drawn around. This practice may be contrasted with the greater formalities of Louis XIV's ''petit lever'', where all stood. ''Ruelle'', literally meaning "narrow street" or "lane", designates the space between a bed and the wall in a bedroom; it was used commonly to designate the gatherings of the "précieuses", the intellectual and literary circles that formed around women in the first half of the 17th century. The first renowned salon in France was the Hôtel de Rambouillet not far from the Palais du Louvre in Paris, which its hostess, Roman-born Catherine de Vivonne, marquise de Rambouillet (1588–1665), ran from 1607 until her death.〔Kale,Steven.''French Salons : High Society and Political Sociability from the Old Regime to the revolution of 1848.'' Baltimore : The Johns Hopkins University Press, 2004. p.2〕〔Lenotre, G. ''Le Château de Rambouillet, six siècles d'Histoire'', Calmann-Lévy, Paris, 1930. New publication, Denoël, Paris, 1984, chapter: ''Les précieuses'', pp. 20-21〕 She established the rules of etiquette of the salon which resembled the earlier codes of Italian chivalry.
