Tattoo, Torture, Mutilation, and Adornment: The Denaturalization of the Body in Culture and Text

by Frances E. Mascia-Lees

This exciting book engages the most current debates about the representation of the human body, particularly the female body, in various media such as literature, film, and popular magazines. Thoroughly conversant with the latest in feminist criticism, gender theory, and the predicaments of postmodern culture, the authors explore various narratives and images through which the gendered body is currently represented.
