Description
Throughout the fin de siècle,
"energy" was a buzzword that was used far beyond the boundaries of the
sciences to negotiate the formative scope as well as limits of Western
modernity. The human body was positioned at the center of the
visualization of this enigmatic drive of all movement in discourses on
labor and economics, physical culture, sport, art, and literature. It
was through the body that this all-pervading and conditioning physical
principle as well as its perceptual qualities were to be made tangible.
This volume is dedicated to these "energetic bodies." The
transdisciplinary individual contributions trace body scenarios of force
and energy over the course of history from 1800 to the peak phase
around 1900 and up to the present.
- Manifestations of "energy" in bodily processes of perception and transmission
- A key concept of modernity - examined over a period from 1800 to the present day
