How to Make the Body: Difference, Identity, and Embodiment brings
together contemporary and historical readings of the body,
exploring the insights and limits of established and emerging
theories of difference, identity, and embodiment in a variety of
German contexts. The engaging contributions to this volume utilize
and challenge cutting-edge approaches to scholarship on the body by
putting these approaches in direct conversation with canonical
texts and objects, as well as with lesser-known yet provocative
emerging forms. To these ends, the chapter authors investigate "the
body" through detailed studies across a wide variety of disciplines
and modes of expression: from advertising, aesthetics, and
pornography, to social media, scientific experimentation, and
transnational cultural forms. Thus, this volume showcases the ways
in which the body as such cannot be taken for granted and surmises
that the body continues to undergo constant--and potentially
disruptive--diversification and transformation.
