Nature Embodied: Gesture in Ancient Rome
Anthony Corbeill
Examining the tantalizing glimpses of ancient bodies offered by Roman sculptures, paintings, and literary texts, this title analyzes the role of gesture in medical and religious ritual, in the gladiatorial arena, in mourning practice, in aristocratic competition of the late Republic, and in the court of the emperor Tiberius.
