| 词条 | Mangas |
| 释义 |
Mangas was a label for men belonging to the working class, behaving in a particularly arrogant/presumptuous way, and dressing with a very typical vesture composed of a woolen hat (kavouraki, καβουράκι), a jacket (they usually wore only one of its sleeves), a tight belt (used as a knife case), stripe pants, and pointy shoes. Other features of their appearance were their long moustache, their bead chaplets (κομπολόγια, sing. κομπολόι), and their idiosyncratic manneristic limp-walking (κουτσό βάδισμα). A related social group were the Koutsavakides (κουτσαβάκηδες, sing. κουτσαβάκης[3]); the two terms are occasionally used interchangeably. Manges are also notable for being closely associated to the history of Rebetiko. EtymologyThe three most probable etymologies of the word Mangas are the following:
Mangas in popular cultureThe stereotypical character of Manges became a central theme in several Rebetiko songs, such as "Του Βοτανικού ο Μάγκας" ("The Mangas of Votanikos"), "Ε ντε λα μαγκέ ντε Βοτανίκ" ("And of the Mangas of Votanikos"),[7] "Πού 'σουν μάγκα το Χειμώνα" ("Where Were You, Mangas, During the Winter"), and "Μάγκας βγήκε για Σεργιάνι" ("Α Mangas Promenaded"). Karagiozis shadow plays portray a recurrent character called Stavrakas, Σταύρακας. In modern Greek language, mangas has become a synonym for "swash guy, swagger" or (in dialogue) simply "dude"; depending on context it may have more negative ("bully, henchman, hooligan") or more positive ("brave, crafty man") connotations.
