Book Synopsis The Lived Body by : Gillian A. Bendelow
Download or read book The Lived Body written by Gillian A. Bendelow and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2002-09-11 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Lived Body takes a fresh look at the notion of human embodiment and provides an ideal textbook for undergraduates on the growing number of courses on the sociology of the body. The authors propose a new approach - an 'Embodied Sociology' - one which makes embodiment central rather than peripheral. They critically examine the dualist legacies of the past, assessing the ideas of a range of key thinkers, from Marx to Freud, Foucault to Giddens, Deleuze to Guattari and Irigary to Grosz, in terms of the bodily themes and issues they address. They also explore new areas of research, including the 'fate' of embodiment in late modernity, sex, gender, medical technology and the body, the sociology of emotions, pain, sleep and artistic representations of the body. The Lived Body will provide students and researchers in medical sociology, health sciences, cultural studies and philosophy with clear, accessible coverage of the major theories and debates in the sociology of the body and a challenging new way of thinking.
Download or read book The Body written by Andrew Blaikie and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2003-08-28 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection offers a uniquely comprehensive guide to the sociology of the body. With a strong historical scope and conceptual framework, it provides an indispensable reference for undergraduate and postgraduate students, and a robust source for scholars working in the area. The central focus is on understanding sociology through the body; what is often described as re-reading sociology in a 'more corporeal light'. This is an interdisciplinary process, drawing on history, feminism, cultural history, art history, anthropology, social psychology, philosophy, medical sociology and media and communications, as well as sociology. While this has been primarily a Western practice, The Body seeks to broaden the perspective to include references that draw on alternative cultural assumptions, beliefs and practices (including Japan, and South America.)
Book Synopsis Sociology of the Body. Forms of "Body" and its Connection to Health Issues by : Patrick Kimuyu
Download or read book Sociology of the Body. Forms of "Body" and its Connection to Health Issues written by Patrick Kimuyu and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2018-07-13 with total page 9 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Essay from the year 2018 in the subject Health - Public Health, grade: 1, Egerton University, language: English, abstract: This research paper will give a comprehensive overview on the core elements of the Sociology of the Body. It will digress into the principal tenets of the discipline and discuss how the human body has been theorized to address different roles. It will also discuss the role of the body in symbolic interaction and the sociology of health. Since its inception, sociology has been changing to assume diverse forms. In recent years, Sociology of the Body emerged as one of the fundamental branches of Sociology. Historically, Sociology was viewed on cultural and societal perspectives, and the body was considered as a peripheral element in the discipline. In Sociology of the Body, the body is considered as an interplay of multiple manifestations, identities, hierarchies and relations and, Kelland remarks, “that interplay results in an individual’s unique way of knowing, their personal epistemology”.

Book Synopsis Preserving the Person by : C. Stephen Evans
Download or read book Preserving the Person written by C. Stephen Evans and published by Regent College Publishing. This book was released on 1994-11 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The human quest for self-understanding is ancient. It transcends the boundaries between ordinary folk and philosophers and it over- laps with many academic disciplines, including psychology, sociology, philosophy and theology. Actually, the quest is not essentially academic; it is a human quest, pursued by persons in every age. With this in mind, philosopher C. Stephen Evans takes a look at the human sciences and their contribution to this self-understanding. Evans first presents a basic problem in these sciences today: the attack on the concept of personhood. He reviews the contemporary understanding of mind and brain: Is a person only a thinking machine or a programmed organism? Then he evaluates the impact of Auguste Comte, Sigmund Freud, J.B. Watson, B.F. Skinner and Emile Durkheim on what Evans terms ?
Book Synopsis The Body Unbound by : Marius Timmann Mjaaland
Download or read book The Body Unbound written by Marius Timmann Mjaaland and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2010-02-19 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A philosophical inquiry into politics, embodiment and religion takes us straight to some of contemporary culture’s most notorious issues: suicide bombing, the veiled and the exposed body, and present-day biopolitics. Interpretations of the body have always been contested, both in the history of philosophy and in the history of religions. On the one hand, the body has been perceived as a prison, binding the soul to transience, darkness, and confusion. Yet on the other hand, it has itself been controlled and disciplined by reason and will, law and culture. The ten contributors to The Body Unbound suggest that inquiries into the nature of human embodiment must take into account both context and history in order to scrutinize them and to uncover resources for unbinding a body which has been doubly bound.

Book Synopsis The Body, Culture and Society by : Phillip Hancock
Download or read book The Body, Culture and Society written by Phillip Hancock and published by Open University Press. This book was released on 2000-12-01 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Academics and undergraduates alike will welcome this accessible guide to a rich variety of body-related matters. . . an informed and stimulating introduction to the subject." - Chris Shilling, University of Portsmouth * How and why has the body come to the forefront of sociology? * How is the body conceptualized in relation to issues of culture and identity? * What are the limitations of current work on the sociology of the body? Over the past two decades, a concern with the human body has grown steadily within the social sciences. This timely volume, written by a team of lecturers actively researching and teaching in the field, provides a clear introduction to the significance of the corporeal dimension of life within contemporary sociological thought. It outlines many of the reasons behind this increased sociological fascination with the body, identifying it with a series of broader developments within the current cultural sensibility. Succeeding chapters, each individually authored, examine the place of the body within a range of substantive areas of sociological research - for example disability, consumption, work and old age - developing, in turn, a critical analysis of current research in these areas. With the use of jargon kept to a minimum, and with each chapter providing suggestions for further reading, The Body, Culture and Society is an accessible and lively introduction to the body from a sociological perspective.
Book Synopsis Body, Soul, and Human Life by : Joel B. Green
Download or read book Body, Soul, and Human Life written by Joel B. Green and published by Paternoster Publishing. This book was released on 2008 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Are humans composed of a material body and an immaterial soul? This view is commonly held by Christians, yet it has been undermined by recent developments in neuroscience. How much of Christian theology is built on views of humanity that modern science has proved to be untenable? Exploring what Scripture and theology teach about issues such as being in the divine image, the importance of community, sin, free will, salvation, and the afterlife, Joel Green argues that a dualistic view of the human person is inconsistent with both science and Scripture"--Publisher description (cf OCLC)
Book Synopsis Time, Space and the Human Body by : Rafael F. Narváez
Download or read book Time, Space and the Human Body written by Rafael F. Narváez and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Concerns about the human body and soul, and their relationship to the world around us, are as old as Western Culture itself. Beyond philosophy and theology, these sorts of preoccupations have also marked the arts, literature, and poetry; and to be sure, they have influenced Western culture, and have marked westerners' imaginations and our everyday understanding of human nature. This book considers various ways in which the body is, and has been, addressed and depicted over time, and it is also a reflection on the ways in which the very spaces that we design and inhabit likewise reflect perceived ideas and misconceptions about the human body.
