Routledge Companion to Women, Sex, and Gender in the Early British Colonial World

Editat de Kimberly Anne Coles, Eve Keller
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 30 iun 2021
All of the essays in this volume capture the body in a particular attitude: in distress, vulnerability, pain, pleasure, labor, health, reproduction, or preparation for death. They attend to how the body’s transformations affect the social and political arrangements that surround it. And they show how apprehension of the body – in social and political terms – gives it shape.
