Constructs a cultural history of porcelain making in France. The book takes its title from two types of ""bodies"" treated in the study: the craft of porcelain making shaped clods of earth into a clay body to produce high-end commodities and the French elite shaped human bodies into social subjects with the help of makeup, patterns, and accessories.
