RESUMO
Este estudo busca investigar as práticas corporais dos idosos no ambiente da praia como experiência contemporânea do envelhecimento, por meio de pesquisa de campo de tipo etnográfica. Os resultados indicam que a imagem do idoso na praia atinge um estado multifacetado, porque não se apresenta radicalmente diferente das práticas corporais adotadas pelos jovens, nem ela é totalmente equivalente àquela configurada como do velho, provocando, assim, novos focos sobre o idoso na praia na era contemporânea.
ABSTRACT
This study aims to investigate the bodily practices of the elderly in the beach environment as contemporary experience of aging through ethnographic research. The results indicate that the image of the elderly at the beach reaches a multifaceted state because it has not radically different bodily practices adopted by young people, or configured as fully equivalent to those of old, thus bringing new focus on the elderly in the contemporary era.
