EAST 3389 - History of the Body in East Asia


This course deals with the ways in which the body has been imagined, represented, and problematized in the East Asian tradition. We will explore religious, philosophical and medical texts, but also comparatively look at literary and artistic depictions of the body and its functions. As this is a small class, students are encouraged on contacting the instructor before enrolling. Prerequisite: At least two courses on East Asia History, Religion, or Anthropology



Credits: 3
