The aim of this book is to explore the body in various historical
contexts and to take it as a point of departure for broader
historiographical projects. The chapters in the volume present the
ways in which the body constitutes a valuable and productive object
of historical analysis, especially as a lens through which to trace
histories of social, political, and cultural phenomena and
processes. More specifically, the authors use the body as a tool
for critical re-examination of particular histories of human
experience, and of societal and cultural practices, thus
contributing to the burgeoning area of body history in terms of
both specific case studies as well as historiography in general.
