It did not suggest, as I discovered last spring at the Roman baths in the German town of Baden-Baden, the unfamiliar and unnerving experience of walking around completely nude in a room full of strangers (of both sexes), exposing the many imperfections of my middle-age body to anyone who felt like glancing upon it. I had gone to Baden-Baden, a bucolic town set between the Black Forest and the Rhine Valley, for a concert by the Berlin Philharmonic, part of Baden-Baden’s annual music festival.
