A Spectator and Sunday Times Book of the Year, Exposed is the story of the Greek and Roman body - in all its (surprisingly human) glory
WINNER OF THE LONDON HELLENIC PRIZESHORTLISTED FOR THE ANGLO-HELLENIC RUNICMAN AWARD A SUNDAY TIMES AND SPECTATOR BOOK OF THE YEAR''Essential and hugely enjoyable'' Katy Hessel''A triumph ... an extraordinary book that stopped me in my tracks'' Peter FrankopanCast in buff bronze and carved in white marble, it''s easy to see the Greek and Roman body as flawless. But this is a lie. Reaching beyond the galleries and behind the myths, classicist Caroline Vout exposes Greek and Roman bodies for what they truly were: anxious, ailing, imperfect and diverse - and responsible for a legacy as lasting as their statutes. Beautifully illustrated, and delving into questions of life, death, morality and personhood, Exposed reveals the classical body in all its flesh-and-blood glory.
