Description
The body, sexuality and gender continue to be subjects of much debate in contemporary culture. This collection of essays, Talking Bodies III Transformations, Movements and Expression, explores these topics through an interdisciplinary lens. As the editors and contributors prepared this manuscript, they were influenced by the coronavirus crisis, which brought about a global pandemic and widespread isolation. Yet, despite these challenges, their research offered vital windows into moments of human transformation, movement and expression. The book scrutinises varied questions relating to how we understand and represent ourselves and others, representing hope and determination that a different world is possible. Through activist-academic essays, this collection sheds light on the complexities of the self and its many expressions.
