Being A Lived Body (Routledge Studies In Social And Political Thought)

This book begins with the distinction between the so-called 'lived body' or 'felt body' (Leib) and the 'physical body' (K?per), tracing the conceptual history of this distinction through key figures in philosophical and social thought and articulating a theory of the lived body that draws on the New Phenomenology developed by Hermann Schmitz. An explanation of our being-in-the-world in terms of a felt-bodily communication with all perceived forms and their affective-bodily resonance in us, "Being a Lived Body" integrates and critically assesses the leading theories of embodiment, while presenting a new approach to the body. It will therefore appeal to scholars of philosophy, social theory and anthropology with interests in phenomenology and embodiment. 9781032404639 1032404639 0 Philosophy NOT_MATURE http://books.google.com/books/content?id=NNIX0AEACAAJ&printsec=frontcover&img=1&zoom=5&source=gbs_api en
