On nakedness
 

Duden 48: "[Anne] Hollander shows that the nakedness of the body is historically experienced as a relationship to the clothes which are considered proper in a given period"
 
 
"nakedness is not universally experienced and percieved any more than clothes are" (Hollander, in Seeing through Clothes)
