The public dimension of the body became paramount in the first half
of the 20th century, when the image of the modern man, with his
virile stereotypes, became a cliche, in strict connection with
nation building first and totalitarian ideologies later. Yet,
different cultural and educational trends advocated for life reform
and liberation of the body. Both the metaphorical and the material
body were invested by cultural, religious, political and
educational theories and practices with strong links and
similarities but also national differences. Thanks to an
international scholarly work about body education in ten European
countries, this volume allows a wide comparative analysis about
life reform; physical education and sport; children's bodies,
emotions, hygiene and (ab)normality.
