Building on a hermeneutic tradition in which accounts of carnal
embodiment are overlooked, misunderstood, or underdeveloped, this
work initiates a new field of study and concern. Carnal
Hermeneutics provides a philosophical approach to the body as
interpretation. Transcending the traditional dualism of rational
understanding and embodied sensibility, the volume argues that our
most carnal sensations are already interpretations. Because
interpretation truly goes "all the way down," carnal hermeneutics
rejects the opposition of language to sensibility, word to flesh,
text to body. In this volume, an impressive array of today's
preeminent philosophers seek to interpret the surplus of meaning
that arises from our carnal embodiment, its role in our experience
and understanding, and its engagement with the wider world.
