Movement, smell, vision, and other perceptual experiences are ways
of thinking and orienting ourselves in the world. And yet the
appeal to experience as resource for theology, though a significant
shift in contemporary scholarship, has seldom received nuanced
investigation. How do embodied differences like gender, race,
disability, and sexuality highlight theological analysis and
connect to perceptual experience and theological imagination? In
Meaning in Our Bodies, Heike Peckruhn offers historical and
cultural comparisons, showing how sensory experience may order
normalcy, social status, or communal belonging. Ultimately, she
argues that scholars who appeal to the importance of bodily
experiences need to acquire a robust and nuanced understanding of
how sensory perceptions and interactions are cultural and
theological acts of making meaning.
