Naked Before God: Uncovering the Body in Anglo-Saxon England Paperback - 2003 - 1st Edition
by Benjamin C. Withers; Jonathan Wilcox
First line
SITUATED at the intersection of contemporary discourses about identity, sexuality, gender, and subjectivity, the body (or em-bodiment) dominates the center of many conversations we are now having about the Middle Ages.
From the rear cover
At different times and in different places, the human form has been regarded in different ways. The Ancient Greeks thought it was the most admirable subject for art, whereas early Christians often viewed it as lascivious in our post-lapsarian state. With illustrations taken from manuscripts, statuary and literary, this is a fascinating collection of essays with much that will be new to scholars and general readers alike.
