Book excerpt: Five Bodies offers an introduction to some of the most urgent contemporary concerns within the sociology of the body. The book was first published in 1985 in the USA by Cornell University Press, and was nominated for the John Porter Award (sponsored by the Canadian Sociology and Anthropology Association). A path breaking book, it offered a framework for the growing field of the sociology of the body and opened up ′the body′ for sociological research. This new edition (the previous edition was published by Cornell University Press (1985) has been substantially revised and updated to address today′s issues of the body in modern life, community and politics. John O′Neill examines how embodied selves and relationships are being re-shaped and re-figured and how the embodied figures of the polity, economy and society represent the contested notions of identity, desire, wholeness and fragmentation. He focuses upon those cultural practices through which we map our macro-micro worlds: · articulating a cosmology · a body politic · a productivensumptive economy · a bio-technological frontier of human design and transplantation

Book Five Bodies

  • Author : John O'Neill
  • Publisher : Ithaca : Cornell University Press
  • Release : 1985
  • ISBN :
  • Pages : 192 pages

Download or read book Five Bodies written by John O'Neill and published by Ithaca : Cornell University Press. This book was released on 1985 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Renowned social critic John O'Neill takes the human body as the focal point of his inquiry into the complex relation of individuals, nature and social institutions. The body once served as the foundation for thinking about politics, society, and the world, O'Neill asserts, but this human proportion has been lost in the modern world. Carefully delineating the course and the consequences of this loss in many realms of modern life, O'Neill demonstrates that we are dominated by concepts of life, family, thought, health and sanity that barely allow us to maintain a sense of our individuality and humanity. O'Neill proposes a renewed and radical anthropomorphism, one that will restore the overwhelming modern world to comprehensible dimensions. ISBN 0-8014-1727-9: $17.50.

Book The Five Senses

  • Author : Michel Serres
  • Publisher : Bloomsbury Publishing
  • Release : 2016-10-20
  • ISBN : 1474299962
  • Pages : 369 pages

Download or read book The Five Senses written by Michel Serres and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2016-10-20 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Marginalized by the scientific age the lessons of the senses have been overtaken by the dominance of language and the information revolution. With The Five Senses Serres traces a topology of human perception, writing against the Cartesian tradition and in praise of empiricism, he demonstrates repeatedly, and lyrically, the sterility of systems of knowledge divorced from bodily experience. The fragile empirical world, long resistant to our attempts to contain and catalog it, is disappearing beneath the relentless accumulations of late capitalist society and information technology. Data has replaced sensory pleasure, we are less interested in the taste of a fine wine than in the description on the bottle's label. What are we, and what do we really know, when we have forgotten that our senses can describe a taste more accurately than language ever could? The book won the inaugural Prix Médicis Essai in 1985. The Revelations edition includes an introduction by Steven Connor.

Book Painted Bodies

Download or read book Painted Bodies written by and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Full of magic and boldness, this unique volume presents dynamic photographs of bodies painted by artists for this project. The inspiration for this project comes from history: human beings have painted their bodies since the beginning of time. Christopher Colombus was faced by natives with painted bodies when he first set foot on American soil. To commemorate the five hundredth anniversary of the explorer's first voyage to the New World, natives of America once again appear with painted bodies. Forty-five Chilean painters, invited to participate in this project, express a diversity of approaches to body art, each one in keeping with their individual character. Some attempt to replicate primitive body painting, while others make full use of modern sophistication. The treatments vary widely, from "dressed" bodies, complete with lace and zippers, to bodies bearing street scenes or faces, to completely abstract paintings highlighting the expressionistic use of the body as canvas. The resulting collaboration is a collection of endlessly varied and thought-provoking photographs of the modern application of an ancient art.

Book Bodies and Souls  or Spirited Bodies

Download or read book Bodies and Souls or Spirited Bodies written by Nancey Murphy and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2006-01-12 with total page 149 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are humans composed of a body and a nonmaterial mind or soul, or are we purely physical beings? Opinion is sharply divided over this issue. In this clear and concise book, Nancey Murphy argues for a physicalist account, but one that does not diminish traditional views of humans as rational, moral, and capable of relating to God. This position is motivated not only by developments in science and philosophy, but also by biblical studies and Christian theology. The reader is invited to appreciate the ways in which organisms are more than the sum of their parts. That higher human capacities such as morality, free will, and religious awareness emerge from our neurobiological complexity and develop through our relation to others, to our cultural inheritance, and, most importantly, to God. Murphy addresses the questions of human uniqueness, religious experience, and personal identity before and after bodily resurrection.
