Maurizia Boscagli

Maurizia Boscagli takes the reader on a highly informed, literary and cultural excursion through the changing image of the male body between 1880 and 1930. This highly erudite study about our obsessions with male physical perfection undergirds and explains late twentieth century America's preoccupation with exercise, athletics, diet, and consumerism.
