content: Nochlin's writings in this subseries relate to depictions of the human body, particularly female nudes. Many of the writings were originally presented by Nochlin during the 2004 Charles Eliot Norton Lecture Series and subsequently published in the 2006 book Bathers, Bodies, Beauty: The Visceral Eye. Earlier material titled "Bathers" or "Bathtime" is the product of her National Endowment for the Humanities award granted in 1993 to research the representation and practices of bathing in 19th-century France. The folders contain drafts, typescripts, lectures and presentation materials, correspondence, and research material. Additional material can be found within the teaching files in series 6, subseries 6.1.
