假发为何开始流行?
Wigs may have fallen out of general men's fashion over the centuries, but when wigs first made their appearance in a courtroom, they were part and parcel of being a well-dressed professional.
在过去的几个世纪里,假发已经从普通男士时尚中消失了。但当假发第一次出现在法庭上时,它是专业人士的得体穿着中必不可少的一部分。
In the 17th century, only the elite wore powdered wigs made of horsehair. Those who couldn't afford the elite garb but wanted to look the part wore wigs made of hair from goats, spooled cotton or human corpses.
在17世纪,只有社会精英才能佩戴马毛制成的扑粉假发。而那些买不起又想要充样子的人,只能戴山羊毛、棉花或死人毛发制成的假发。
Wigs began to catch on in the late 16th century when an increasing number of people in Europe were contracting the STD. Without widespread treatment with antibiotics, people with syphilis were plagued by rashes, blindness, dementia, open sores and hair loss. The hair loss was particularly problematic in social circles.
假发在16世纪晚期开始流行。当时欧洲越来越多的人感染了性病,由于当时抗生素还没有广泛用于治疗,感染者饱受皮疹、失明、痴呆、开放性溃疡和脱发的折磨。而脱发的问题在社交圈中尤为严重。
Wigs, when not used to cover syphilis-related hair loss, were a big help for those who had lice. After all, it was much more difficult to treat and pick through the hair on one's head than it was to sanitize a wig.
