AUTHOR

Cohen, Jeffrey Jerome, Weiss, Gail

SUMMARY

This collection maps the very best efforts to think the body at its limits. Because the body encompasses communities (social and political bodies), territories (geographical bodies), and historical texts and ideas (a body of literature, a body of work), Cohen and Weiss seek trans-disciplinary points of resonance and divergence to examine how disciplinary metaphors materialize specific bodies, and where these bodies break down and/or refuse prescribed paths. Whereas postmodern theorizations of the body often neglect its corporeality in favor of its cultural construction, this book demonstrates the inseparability of textuality, materiality, and history in any discussion of the body.Cohen, Jeffrey Jerome is the author of 'Thinking the Limits of the Body', published 2003 under ISBN 9780791456002 and ISBN 0791456005.
