Do you love the classical world? Have you read every Madeline Miller novel and devoured Mary Beard’s books on the Greek and Roman world? Well then, you’re in luck as this week we publish the brilliant #Exposed by Cambridge Professor of Classics Caroline Vout. You've seen the paintings, read the philosophers and heard the myths – now here's the classical body in all its flesh and blood glory. In this beautifully illustrated book, Caroline Vout removes the Greek and Roman body from its marble pedestal and delves into ancient body politics, from contraception and attitudes to sex, to cosmetics and early gym memberships. This is a captivating book that shines a light on our ancient ancestors and suggests that perhaps we have more in common than we might think... #Exposed publishes on Thursday. #Exposed #CarolineVout #ClassicalLiterature #Classics #ClassicalHistory #AncientGreece #AncientRome #Bookstagram #BooksOfIG #BooksBooksBooks #MaryBeard #SPQR #MadelineMiller #SongOfAchilles #Circe
