Summary

The “rise of embodiment” has been one of the most significant developments in social theory over the past thirty years, and this chapter examines the historical context for this (re)turn to carnality before interrogating the ambiguities of recent perspectives that risk losing sight of the enfleshed actor.Identifying the need for a counterweight to these strong constructionist and materialist orientations, I suggest that revisiting creatively the notion of the body schema enables us to pursue different theoretical options, while saving from analytical conflation the facticity of embodied subjects.

Body schema, classical sociology, embodiment, identity, mind/body dualism

Dr. Chris Shilling is Professor of Sociology at the School of Social Policy, Sociology, and Social Research (SPSSR), University of Kent.He has published extensively in the areas of sociological theory and religion, and is one of the main figures in the development of “body studies.” His recent books include The Body and Social Theory, 3rd edition (2012), The Body: A Very Short Introduction (2016), and with P. A. Mellor, Sociology of the Sacred (2014) and Uncovering Social Life: Critical Perspectives from Sociology (2018).
