中文简介:
文化,身体和感官将提供一个历史和跨文化的分析政治的感觉经验。本课程将讨论西方哲学关于精神、大脑、情感和身体的辩论,以及视、理和理性与嗅觉、味觉和触觉作为可接受的认知和知识生产方式的历史价值。我们将评估挑战来自西方哲学和生理学模型的经验的科学解释的文化传统。本课程将检视感官经验如何超越个体生理或心理反应的范畴,如何发生在文化上精深的社会关系领域。最后,我们将讨论关于感官的话语如何是特定的知识生产模式的产物,而这些模式本身就是权力关系领域中有争议的领域。
课程简介: Culture, Embodiment, and the Senses will provide an historical and cross-cultural analysis of the politics of sensory experience. The subject will address western philosophical debates about mind, brain, emotion, and the body and the historical value placed upon sight, reason, and rationality, versus smell, taste, and touch as acceptable modes of knowing and knowledge production. We will assess cultural traditions that challenge scientific interpretations of experience arising from western philosophical and physiological models. The class will examine how sensory experience lies beyond the realm of individual physiological or psychological responses and occurs within a culturally elaborated field of social relations. Finally, we will debate how discourse about the senses is a product of particular modes of knowledge production that are themselves contested fields of power relations.
关 键 词: 人类学; 跨文化分析; 感官体验; 西方哲学辩论; 知识生产
