Philippe Ariès [SEP] Criticism of "Centuries of Childhood"
There has been widespread criticism of the methods that Ariès used to draw his conclusions about the role of childhood in early modern Europe. One of his most noted critics was the historian Geoffrey Elton. Elton's main criticism of Ariès is paraphrased in Richard J. Evans's book on historiography, "In Defence of History": "...in everyday life children were indeed dressed differently to adults; they were just put in adult clothes to have their portraits painted." That is to say that Ariès took early modern portraits as an accurate representation of the look of early modern families whereas a lot of the clients would use them to improve their status.
