Holy Anorexia
- Binding: Paperback
- Publisher: Univ of Chicago Pr
- Publish date: 06/01/1987
Description:
Is there a resemblance between the contemporary anorexic teenager in her single-minded pursuit of thinness, and an ascetic medieval saint examining her every desire? Both contemporary anorexics and 'holy anorexics' seek autonomy in culturally defined ideal states: energetic slenderness today, spiritual purity in the Middle Ages.
