About This Book
Constructions of the Classical Body brings together essays by distinguished international scholars to explore the subject of the body in antiquity. The book's thesis is that the study of antiquity is necessarily a study of the body, and that attention to this fact can lead to a much-needed shift in the way that classical studies are approached today.
The volume aims to reestablish the relevance of the problem of the body at the perimeters of several different kinds of inquiry, and in this way to help open up a field of possibilities for future study.
