Social-Nudism.Pdf
www.all-about-psychology.com PRESENTS I. THE TABOO OF THE HUMAN BODY The wide-spread taboo attaching to the human body is a noteworthy phenomenon of social psychology. Clothing is worn, not merely for protection or for adornment, but to conceal various parts of the body from view. Clothes are not needed for protection in swimming, gymnastics, tennis and certain other sports, nor in rhythmic dancing. In most of these diversions there can be no question of adornment; in some cases garments interfere with the purpose of the activity; in some they may even be detrimental to health. Yet social pressure compels the wearing of some clothing in all these pursuits. This taboo of the body is fairly universal. It is found among savage and civilized races alike, and prevails in all climates. Most investigators in this field have been interested in the origin of clothing rather than in the rise of the taboo. The two problems are distinct, though closely related. The origin of the impulse to cover the body has been variously explained by different writers. It has been attributed to the need of protection from cold, insects, dampness, excessive heat, rough soil, thorns, evil spirits, etc.; or to the craving for adornment, especially in order to promote sexual attraction. A number of writers ascribe the origin of clothing to a primitive modesty instinct, which would make the body taboo a native or inherent trait of the human race. J. C. Flügel (1) reviews these conflicting theories at length. The reader is referred to his monograph and the sources which he cites for full treatment of the topic. -
The Roosevelt Myth
THE ROOSEVELT MYTH BY JOHN T. FLYNN (1948) Flynn was a political reporter who supported the populist objectives of FDR early in his career but became an ardent critic later on, as he saw the blunders and corruption of the Roosevelt administration covered up by a compliant press. FDR was always portrayed as a peace-loving populist on the side of the "little guy" while many of his advisors were war mongers, communist sympathizers, and agents of Wall Street. This expose is a much needed corrective to the 'myth' of Roosevelt populism.

SEEING INDIA: a Hyperreal Yoga Fantasy by Rebecca Elizabeth Long
SEEING INDIA: A Hyperreal Yoga Fantasy by Rebecca Elizabeth Long Honors Thesis Appalachian State University Submitted to the Department of Anthropology, the Department of Art, and The Honors College in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Arts December, 2016 Dana E. Powell, Ph.D., Thesis Director Heather Waldroup, Ph.D., Second Reader Christina Sornito, Ph.D., Third Reader Sushmita Chatterjee, Ph.D., Fourth Reader Timothy Smith, Ph.D., Honors Director, Department of Anthropology James Toub, Ph.D., Honors Director, Department of Art Ted Zerucha, Ph.D., Interim Director, The Honors College ABSTRACT How does the yoga studio present India for viewing? As a yoga scholar-practitioner, I examine visual, linguistic, and embodied representations of India at a local yoga studio to address this question. The fieldwork for this ethnographic thesis spans yoga classes, yoga teacher training, and a two-week pilgrimage to India with members of this yoga studio. I pay special attention to bhakti yoga, a devotional form of yoga taught by the yoga studio as a way to offer a more spiritual and therefore more authentic yoga. Placing my experiences within a critical understanding of postcolonial yoga history, I show that yoga has been constructed to meet various ideologies and political projects, challenging the production of yoga as India’s pristine and unchanging cultural icon. I find that India is exhibited as an ultra-spiritual, pre- colonial, anti-modern location both at the yoga studio and when traveling as a yoga tourist. Using Jean Baudrillard’s theory of the hyperreal, along with postcolonial theories, I argue that the yoga studio creates a particular India for consumption that is not based in reality but is instead the product of oriental fantasies. -
Der Bronzene Leib. Die FKK-Ästhetik in Der Weimarer Republik
Der bronzene Leib. Die FKK-Ästhetik in der Weimarer Republik MAREN MÖHRING Die Freikörperkultur hat ihre Wurzeln in der Lebensreformbewegung am Ende des 19. Jahrhunderts. In diesem Kontext entstanden die ersten FKK-Vereine, die meist klein, elitär, bürgerlich geprägt und vor allem in den Großstädten im protestantischen Norden Deutschlands zu finden waren; die Vereins- wie Publikationsaktivitäten der Freikörperkultur konzentrierten sich in besonderem Maße auf Berlin. Bereits um 1900 wurde in den FKK-Zeitschriften das Ideal des schlanken, sonnenge- bräunten und durchtrainierten Körpers propagiert, das sich in den 1920er Jahren, als sich die FKK-Bewegung zu einer Massenbewegung entwi- ckelte, allgemein durchzusetzen begann. Dieses moderne Körperideal formulierte man im Rückgriff auf die Antike. Der Rekurs auf die antike griechische Statue ermöglichte es der Freikörperkultur, auch die Nackt- heit als notwendiges Ingredienz idealer Körperschönheit zu präsentieren. Das bedeutendste Instrument zur Schaffung eines schönen Körpers stell- te die Nacktgymnastik dar. Sie verstand sich als ein kontinuierliches „Nachüben“ der antiken Statuen, als „Umsatz der Kunst in das lebendige Menschenmaterial“, wie die Nacktgymnastin Bess Mensendieck 1912 in Körperkultur der Frau verkündete (Mensendieck 1912: 64f.). Die FKK-Ästhetik wie auch die nudistischen Körperpraktiken hatten sich bereits zu Beginn des 20. Jahrhunderts weitgehend ausgebildet. In diesem Sinne ist körperhistorisch durchaus die Kontinuität über die er- eignisgeschichtliche Zäsur des Ersten Weltkriegs hinweg zu betonen. Denn gerade angesichts der Kriegserfahrung suchten viele über den Blick zurück, vertraute Formen und Praktiken zu restituieren (Bourke 200 DER BRONZENE LEIB 1996: 19). Der Rekurs auf die Antike versprach, „ewige Muster und Vorbilder“ (Große 1923: 293) für die Gegenwart bereitzustellen. Han- delte es sich also nicht um gänzlich neue ästhetische Körperkonstruktio- nen, so lassen sich hinsichtlich der FKK-Ästhetik dennoch Veränderun- gen im Laufe der 1920er Jahre ausmachen. -

A Brief History of Nakedness
Published on Reviews in History (https://reviews.history.ac.uk) A Brief History of Nakedness Review Number: 948 Publish date: Wednesday, 1 September, 2010 Author: Philip Carr-Gomm ISBN: 9781861896476 Date of Publication: 2010 Price: £19.95 Pages: 286pp. Publisher: Reaktion Books Place of Publication: London Reviewer: Joseph Melling The history of nakedness deserves a serious history. For organised nudism or ‘naturism’ was a conscious movement initiated by Europeans at the end of the 19th century that has exerted a significant influence over society and politics in the wider world. This book is not that serious academic history. In one respect its aim is much more ambitious. For its author is a psychologist, psychotherapist and popular writer, guided by a strong commitment to libertarian values. In the manner of a Jungian auteur, he undertakes a polymath survey of attitudes to the naked body across thousands of years. Carr-Gomm retains an abiding interest in the magical, mystical and religious values that absorb the first third of his book as he takes us on a colourful caravan across the centuries of Asiatic and European history. These bright threads of experience show how the hippie culture of the 1960s followed well-established pathways of European spiritualism and ancient meditation in which various forms of nakedness featured as initiations into deeper truths. For Judaeo- Christian as well as Hindu mystics have used the naked body to bear witness to the virtues of poverty and chastity in their journey to virtue, whether Francis of Assisi barefoot in the snow or naked Quakers ranting in London streets during the English Revolution and Russian doukhobours marching across Canada in nude family groups to defend their faith. -

'For a Genuine and Noble Nakedness'? German Naturism In
GH363oa-3.qxd 1/6/06 10:07 AM Page 62 ‘For a Genuine and Noble Nakedness’? German Naturism in the Third Reich Matthew Jefferies (University of Manchester) British and American travellers during the 1920s were frequently moved to comment on the extent to which public nudity was becoming a feature of everyday life in Germany. In his memoirs the poet Stephen Spender recalled his first visit to the country in 1929: The sun—symbol of the great wealth of nature within the poverty of man—was a primary social force in this Germany. Thousands of people went to the open-air swimming baths or lay down on the shores of the rivers and lakes, almost nude, and sometimes quite nude, and the boys who had turned the deepest mahogany walked amongst those people with paler skins like kings among their courtiers.1 There were also many less celebrated observers who were so enthused by the naked lifestyle that they wrote books arguing for its adoption in their own countries: Dr. Maurice Parmalee, for instance, a Constantinople-born American sociologist who wrote Nudity in Modern Life (1927) after spending the years 1920–23 and 1926 in Germany;2 or the Reverend C.E. Norwood, author of Nudism in England (1933), who visited Germany in 1928;3 or Harold C. Booth, who came back from 1920s Berlin to found the short-lived Gymnosophical Society.4 Indeed, the clothes-free lifestyle was so closely associated with Germans that the first nudist colony in Britain—a piece of Hertfordshire woodland purchased by Charles and Dorothy Macaskie in 1929— was given the name ‘Spielplatz’,5 even though it had no teutonic connections.
