The Classical Body in Romantic Britain

Cora Gilroy-Ware (Fellow in the Caltech-Huntington Program for the Study of Materialities, Texts, and Images, 2015-16)

For many, the term "neoclassicism" has come to imply discipline, order, restraint, and a certain myopia. Leaving the term behind, this book radically challenges enduring assumptions about the art produced from the late 18th century to the early Victorian period, casting new light on appropriations of the classical body by British artists.
