Abstract:
"This engaging collection of essays interprets the symbolic and material relationships between places and bodies. Places Through the Body draws on a wide range of contemporary examples and creative ideas to address such topics as: how racist ideologies are embedded in modern architectural discourse and practice; how urban spaces make bodies disabled; how the seemingly virtual worlds of knowledge and technology are embodied; how gyms enable women body builders to make new kinds of bodies; how male bodies are placed onto the silver screen; new kinds of femininity. This collection brings together geographers, architects, anthropologists, artists, film theorists, theorists of cultural studies and psycho-analysis work alongside each other to make clear connections between bodies and places." http://www.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0649/97037994-d.html.
