La Passion Du Corps: Des Mythes À La Chirurgie Esthétique
La passion du corps: Des mythes à la chirurgie esthétique is a medical book by Vladimir Mitz that examines how ancient myths continue to shape contemporary questions about bodily appearance and the modifications people seek. The text draws on mythology from antiquity to the present to explore the ambiguities that drive individuals to alter their bodies and to reconsider the impact of physical beauty.
The book also addresses the suffering that can underlie aggressive bodily modification and argues for an ethics of aesthetics. It considers the "augmented," patched, or fantastically grafted individual as someone conditioned by the image of media icons, underscoring the enduring importance of myths in the modern world.
