Offering an in-depth analysis of the relationship between touch and
language through the history of philosophy, this book revitalizes
the field of haptic studies, providing new insights into the
philosophy of language and ontological nature of touch. The
Language of Touch draws together an international team of
linguists, anthropologists, and philosophers to demonstrate from a
variety of disciplinary perspectives that the experience of touch
is inextricable from the structure of language. Examining the
intersections between phenomenology of touch and poststructural
linguistics, this work draws upon figures such as Marx,
Merleau-Ponty, Nancy, Derrida, and Lacan to question both how
language structures touch and how touch structures language.
