The History Written on the Classical Greek Body - The Wiles Lectures
Osborne, Robin (University of Cambridge)
Exposes the distortions systematically introduced by historians through relying on texts without looking at what was and was not written on the body. It shows that in classical Athens, on the basis of visual evidence, the categories advertised in texts do not match those which could be operated in life.
