Abstract:

Attitudes towards the naked body vary from culture to culture. Even within one culture, the nakedness often symbolises very different and sometimes arbitrarily contradictory things. It can be associated with eroticism, sanctity, aggression, a certain type of culture (from savagery to elitism), etc. Focusing on specific cinematic examples, the author examines the symbolism of naked male and female bodies in horror films. The author concludes that while nudity may serve to attract viewers to the cinema, it does not necessarily equate to sexuality. The nudity is frightening in its vulnerability,

Abstract:

This paper intends to demonstrate how the naked body can be understood as a discursive materiality (discursive body), insofar as it destabilizes meanings historically produced about women, their bodies and sexuality. We will use the theoretical perspective of the French Discourse Analysis of Michel Pêcheux, in order to analyze a protest,performed by the feminist group FEMEN, against the implantation of Sharia in Egypt after the events of the Arab Spring in 2012. With this reflection, we aim to show that the naked body, when covered with statements that question the control of the female

Two trials were conducted utilizing 1344 birds. Treatment diets were fed to four pens of roasters each, from 21 to 64 d of age. In exp. 2, grower and finisher turkey diets were formulated to contain 0, 22, 44, or 66% naked oats. The starter diet contained no naked oats. Two trials involving 964 birds were co

Abstract:

Growth performance of normal-feathered, frizzle and naked neck indigenous chickens of Nigeria during an 18-week growing period was studied. Differences in body weights among the three genotypes (sexes combined) were not significantly different at all ages, although those with normal feathering showed general superiority over the other two genotypes. Male normal-feathered individuals had significantly higher body weights than the females from week 6, whereas differences between male and female naked necks were significantly from the females at all ages. No significant differences were observed

Abstract:

“Do women have to be naked to get into the Metropolitan museum?” was the question put up by the Guerrilla Girls to all New York inhabitants seeking to shake art world consciousness. After making a study on the subject they have raised that even if a minority of women artists is represented in the museums, 85% of the nudes are female. Having the body of the Odalisque by Ingres with a gorilla head has a starting point; a story of the female nude throughout history will be criticized since the erotic painting of Venus by Titian.

Abstract:

The aim of this article is to highlight the attention given by recent makeover shows, and specifically How to Look Good Naked, to the ‘underneath’ as a way of (re)organising the female body. I examine whether this ‘turn’ or change in media’s direction is an appreciation of the real female body (an unmodified body) or whether this is a mere (re-)organisation of the body into a controllable base of overall appearance and a further embedding of Western conceptions of beauty and of the notion that the manipulation of appearance is essential to the construction of the feminine identity and to the m

Gok Wan’s television fashion series How To Look Good Naked (Channel 4, 2006–10) has vividly revolutionized the self-improvement genre. By developing a playful, caring and female-friendly makeover platform that values the articulation of emotional experiences in relation to the body, the series facilitates the exploration of the inner layers of subjectivity through the psychological exercises and self-reflective practices that Gok Wan sets out for his subjects. Playful mechanisms of creativity are central to his makeover practice, integrating fashion techniques and stylistic practices to encour

Abstract:

This paper uses the film Looker (Michael Crichton, 1981) to highlight how a group of filmmakers and technologists imagined the sinister side of computer-automated biometrics would unfold in late twentieth century United States. The film depicts a scene in which a young female model gets her naked body scanned for a multinational corporation that will capitalize on the 3D computer model created from her likeness. An analysis of the body scanning scene and behind-the-scenes production processes raise new questions about the legacy of biometric imaginaries in the United States and helps us see in

Abstract:

The interest in the study of the body that is emerging in European archaeologies has not yet penetrated Americanist approaches to prehistoric iconography. Nevertheless, American materials provide an excellent data base with which to work. This article employs the complex human representational imagery of the Moche (Peruvian North Coast, c.AD 100–800) to explore how the body was situated within the context of ritual sacrifice. Employing both the Foucauldian concept of the disciplined body and the work of Mary Douglas, two forms of bodily representation are discussed: the naked male prisoner and

Abstract:

As an artist working with the female model, this practice-led research examines concepts of alterity and subjectivity while challenging the dominant role of male subjectivity in the western world. It revolves around the relationship between myself and the female subject, a specific woman who within the context of my work epitomises but at the same time transcends womanhood. This undertaking suggests that my representations of her body grow out of a dialectical tension between the feeling that the female other has almost become a metonymic extension of myself, and the awareness that such a feel

The aim of this essay is to examine the censorship that the social media platform Instagram exerts over pictures of female nudes, and whether the body type of the women depicted is a factor in how the censorship is carried through. This is executed by making a comparative picture analysis of eight nude photos published on Instagram, four of which are allowed on the platform and four which are not, and have therefore been deleted. The bodies are analysed, and aspects of how they are depicted which are related to the Instagram Community Guidelines, and furthermore if the body depicted conforms t

Abstract:

The chapter argues that the aesthetic ideology and justification of the centrality of the female nude in art was affected by the widespread circulation of cheap reproductions of nudes (in Salon catalogs or on postcards). While the genre of the nude was central to art, and the training of artists, this value was undermined by the widespread availability of “pornographic” nudes. This chapter traces the response to this altered condition in the work of two artists: Walter Sickert and Wyndham Lewis. Sickert’s Camden Town nudes attempt to recuperate the nude for art through a gritty realism. Wyndha

There is nothing inherently empowering about making porn or showing the naked female (or any gendered) body on stage.

This could include, but is not limited to, discovering that we are exhibitionists or artists and/or that we enjoy exploring our sexuality with lots of different kinds of people.

Comfort care placed the single female nurse too close to the naked male body and feeding work was allied to mothering, rather than professional practice.
