The sensory revolution in the social sciences is transforming the
ways in which the senses and the sensorium are studied and
understood in relation to bodies in action. This is the first book
to investigate the impact, and challenges, of this revolution for
those interested in physical culture. Providing vivid examples of
sensory scholarship in action from sport, physical activity,
leisure and recreation, this book brings together leading figures
to discuss how we go about seeking the senses, how we engage in
somatic work, and how we create meanings and come to understand
ourselves and others as embodied beings in a variety of social
settings over time. Featuring original reflections on athletics,
running, cycling, sailing, kayaking, windsurfing, glow sports, jiu
jitsu, mixed martial arts and yoga, this ground breaking collection
showcases the latest sensory research in physical culture as well
as paving the way both conceptually and methodologically for future
work in this area. Seeking the Senses in Physical Culture: Sensuous
scholarship in action is fascinating reading for all those
interested in physical cultural and body studies; the sociology,
psychology and philosophy of sport; leisure and recreation studies;
and physical education.
