  • ANTH 219: Anthropology of the Body

    1.00 Credits
    Trinity College

    This course views the body as a site on which social and cultural processes are imprinted. We will examine homeless, diseased, addicted, hungry, and drugged bodies to show how the body is a center of power relations emerging from a particular political economy. We will also investigate the processes through which some kinds of bodies are constructed as abnormal and are subject to attack, ridicule, or freak-show display. Finally, we will explore the ways in which bodies are used in the accumulation of wealth and power, and what happens to bodies when they are commoditized for the market, are dissected, bought, sold, and rented. Students will have considerable freedom to design and undertake their own research projects. 1.00 units, Lecture
