Although nudity is something that everyone has experience with,
public nudity is still largely considered taboo. Public Nudity and
the Rhetoric of the Body examines instances of public nudity where
sexuality is at the forefront of public body display. It presents a
range of case studies: the legal aspects of sexualized public
nudity as it relates to communication theory and the First
Amendment; the controversies surrounding the work of photographer
Jock Sturges; the public performance art of Milo Moire; the topless
protests of FEMEN; the social media activism of Aliaa Magda
Elmahdy; the ritualized flashing during Mardi Gras in New Orleans;
and the sexual displays of Folsom Street Fair, the largest leather
pride festival. Taken together, these cases teach much about
identity, self-determination, and sexuality, and illustrate the
complicated rhetorical nature of the human body in the public
sphere.
