Różne oblicza starości w mentalności społeczeństwa szlacheckiego Rzeczypospolitej w epoce późnego baroku

ENThe aging process is understood as inevitable changes in the human body from birth through adolescence. The aging of a society depends on many phenomena, including physical, psychosocial, and mental changes, fertility rates, procreative attitudes, the position of the elderly in the labor market, mortality rates, and human longevity. In historical societies, the internal division of roles within the family or group was customarily accepted, and social relationships and bonds were strong, although often fraught with conflicts that led to a lack of acceptance for the elderly and a desire to limit their social role.
