Feminism

By focusing on "new materiality," this edited volume offers new optics on the affordance of women's physical and objective body. The interdisciplinary essays assembled in the book interrogate the concepts of corporeality and embodiment by interpreting them as material enactivism of a woman's physical body geared toward performance and demonstration, respectively. The book situates body/bodily movements as agentic initiatives to make sense of women's bodies (in) motion. Although flesh in its constitution, a woman's body is the very material entity that does not only perform what it is expected to do (for its many audiences as in spectacle) but also its corporeality imputes a demonstrative kinetics hitherto associated with the objective body in recent social theorizing.
