Embodied Modernities: Corporeality, Representation, and Chinese CulturesFran Martin, Ari Larissa Heinrich University of Hawaii Press, 2006年7月31日 - 296 頁 From feminist philosophy to genetic science, scholarship in recent years has succeeded in challenging many entrenched assumptions about the material and biological status of human bodies. Likewise in the study of Chinese cultures, accelerating globalization and the resultant hybridity have called into question previous assumptions about the boundaries of Chinese national and ethnic identity. The problem of identifying a single or definitive referent for the "Chinese body" is thornier than ever. |
