Reader reviews for Embodiment and Experience: The Existential Ground of Culture and Self

From the publisher

Students of culture have been increasingly concerned with the ways in which cultural values are inscribed on the body. The unifying theme of these essays is that the body is at once a fount of symbols and the instrument of experience. This more complex and dynamic view is applied by the contributors to a variety of topics, including dietary customs, the expression of emotion, the experience of pain, and political violence. Their purpose is to contribute to a phenomenological theory of culture and self.

First line

The current salience of bodily-related political movements and the importance of the body in current social and cultural theorizing is associated with the prominence of body-related themes in the culture of contemporary late capitalism.
