The volume does not explore beauty for the sake of beauty, but extensively explores how it serves to form and keep gender norms in place. The concept of beauty has been a topic of interest for some time, yet it is only in recent times that archaeologists have begun to approach beauty as a culturally contingent and socially constructed phenomenon. Although archaeologists and ancient historians extensively dealt with gender, they dealt less with it in relation to beauty.Beautiful BodiesAestheticsHistory, AncientGender IdentityArchaeologyPhilosophyHistorySocial Science306Matić Uros1578792Rebay-Salisbury Katharina866919MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910824580203321Beautiful Bodies3990672UNINA
