The Naked Man: A Study of the Male Body

by Desmond Morris

No life form has had a greater impact upon this planet than the human male. What is it that has made his legacy so utterly distinct from that of all other life forms, including even the human female? Following on from the international success of “The Naked Woman”, Desmond Morris investigates this intriguing evolutionary success story. “The Naked Man” is a study of the masculine body from head to toe, examining biological features of the male anatomy in illuminating detail and describing the many ways in which these features have been modified, suppressed, or exaggerated by local customs and changes in social fashions. This is a natural history of man, viewing him as a fascinating specimen of a far from rare, but nevertheless endangered species. As with its companion title, “The Naked Man” is written from a zoologist’s perspective and packed full of scientific fact, engaging anecdote and thought-provoking conclusions, including a controversial chapter examining male sexuality.

Shape Up!: Tailor-made Training for Male Body Types

by John Shepherd

We are increasingly under pressure to improve our physical appearance and there is the additional, and perhaps even more serious, pressure placed on us by the current ‘obesity epidemic’. Put simply, many of us need to lose weight in order to enjoy a healthy and longer life. The problem is that the majority of advice that we receive does not take into account our body type (broadly, there are three for men and four for women), which is the single biggest factor on our body shape. Unless we have an understanding of this then there is little prospect of seeing any results from time spent in the gym, no matter how much effort we put in. This book explains the concept of body shape, helping the reader to: identify their body type and shape, set realistic goals for that body shape, develop a programme suited to their body shape, work out what is best to eat for their body type. Not only does this guarantee results, but it also helps the reader to appreciate their own physique and what they can achieve, rather than constantly comparing themselves to an unattainable ideal.

Becoming Female: The Male Body in Greek Tragedy

by Katrina Cawthorn

“Becoming Female”, the first book-length examination of the body in classical Athenian tragedy, reconsiders the figure of the male tragic hero, making use of both feminist and body theory. The male hero becomes female in the space of tragedy through the experience of suffering, and seems unable to return to any secure expression of masculinity. Katrina Cawthorn concentrates initially on the figure of Heracles in Sophocles’ “The Women of Trachis”, an exemplary specimen of the tragic process of becoming female, who exhibits many of the central issues considered in the book. The male hero is, in the course of the play, undone and feminised, while the instability of masculine identity is revealed. This theme of becoming female, and the resulting failure to circumscribe the feminine and return to any secure and triumphant concept of masculinity, is argued to be a discernible feature of the genre of tragedy. The inconclusive and disconcerting nature of tragic endings contribute to the dislocation of the tragic male and emphasise the Dionysian disturbance of the male hero. Moreover, this state of the dissolute male hero has textual and theatrical consequences, extending to affect the audience so that it too becomes feminised by the processes of tragedy.”Becoming Female” is an important work for scholars and students of Classical Studies, Ancient History, Drama and Theatre Studies, Women’s Studies and Cultural Studies.
