Body Evidence: Intimate Violence Against South Asian Women in America

2007 y.
Publisher: Rutgers University Press
Description: When South Asians immigrated to the United States in great numbers in the 1970s, they were passionately driven to achieve economic stability and socialize the next generation to retain the traditions of their home culture. During these years, the immigrant community went to great lengths to project an impeccable public image by denying the existence of social problems such as domestic violence, sexual assault, mental illness, racism, and intergenerational conflict. It was not until recently that activist groups have worked to bring these issues out into the open. In `Body Evidence`, more than twenty scholars and public health professionals uncover the unique challenges faced by victims of domestic violence in South Asian American communities. Topics include cultural obsession with women`s chastity and virginity, the continued silence surrounding intimate violence among women who identify themselves as lesbian, bisexual, or transgender, the consequences of refusing marriage proposals… [detailed...]

Description: Body Language is a testament to survival, to the healing power of nature. Connie built a home by the shores of Grand Lake, the lake the Indians called `Spirit Lake.` Watching the river fill up the lake year after year renewed her faith in the sense of continuity and progression. Grand Lake, with its bird calls and bombastic waves, was a magic marriage between the visible and invisible, a landscape that refreshed the eye, cleansed the heart, recharged the spirit. Sometimes the body sings hymns, sometimes the blues but always the body hums along. Healing is a process, a journey toward balance, connectedness, meaning, wholeness, rather than an outcome.

Description: Book DescriptionFollowing the attacks of September 11, artist and downtown resident John Coplans responded unconsciously to the disaster by making photos of his arms and legs and then collaging the two together into one image. After making four such images, Coplans realized the connection to the aftermath of the event, where workmen were digging up debris and constantly finding human remains, especially body parts. At the same time, Coplans` problems with his eyesight were exacerbated, he was unable tosee facial features, and he could neither read nor focus. The days became dark, somewhat like dusk, but worse. For some time, his left eye had been useless because of Macular Degeneraion, now, the same thing was happening to his right eye. Yet Coplanscould still see flat images the size of a postcard fairly distinctly with the aid of a magnifying machine, and decided to continue working on Body Parts.

Body Trauma TV: The New Hospital Dramas

2003 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionHospital dramas like ER, Casualty, Chicago Hope, and Gideon`s Crossing became extremely popular over the past decade. This book explores the stylistic, aesthetic, and thematic impact of this successful genre. It argues that new medical dramas offer a very different visual and affective landscape from their predecessors, often seeking to disturb rather than reassure their audiences. Such dramas are visually mobile, speedy, and explicit in their depiction of body trauma: injury and illness are showcased as part of the televisual style. The medical professional is now frequently depicted as a modern day existentialist, forced to confront insipid new management cultures, ethical labyrinths, and noxious patients that invade the white purity of the medical ward and emergency room. The book traces the historical development of new medical drama and explores the implications of, and anxieties within, their depiction of modern healthcare. Finally, the book argues… [detailed...]

Body and Image: Explorations in Landscape Phenomenology 2

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: The understanding and interpretation of ancient architecture, landscapes, and art has always been viewed through an iconographic lens?a cognitive process based on traditional practices in art history. But ancient people did not ascribe their visions on canvas, rather on hills, stones, and fields. Thus, Chris Tilley argues, the iconographic approach falls short of understanding how ancient people interacted with their imagery. A kinaesthetic approach, one that uses the full body and all the senses, can better approximate the meaning that these artifacts had for their makers and today?s viewers. The body intersects the landscape in a myriad of ways?through the effort to reach the image, the angles that one can use to view, the multiple senses required for interaction. Tilley outlines the choreographic basis of understanding ancient landscapes and art phenomenologically, and demonstrates the power of his thesis through examples of rock art and megalithic architecture in Norway, Ireland,… [detailed...]
