Nudity (with Ruth Barcan, Ph.D.)
from Taboo Science Hosted by Ashley Hamer Pritchard
What do the Pioneer 10 plaque and communal bathhouses of Renaissance Europe have in common? Today we're stripping down the complicated concept of nudity with Dr. Ruth Barcan, honorary associate professor at the University of Sydney in Australia. We'll explore the meanings, reactions, and laws surrounding nudity, from how art influenced our perception of nudity to the complex legalities of female toplessness in the US. Oh yeah, and we're getting deep into the nudism movement, which has an origin story you'll be telling people about at parties.Pick up Ruth Barcan's book Nudity: A Cultural Anatomy right here: https://amzn.to/3p7E7EISee citations and a transcript here: https://www.tabooscience.show/s3e5-nudity/Need music for a project?
