Abstract:

This book draws inspiration from Maurice Merleau-Ponty's concept of
intercorporeality to offer a new, multidisciplinary perspective on the body.
By drawing attention to the body's ability to simultaneously sense and be
sensed, Merleau-Ponty transcends the object-subject divide and describes how
bodies are about, into, and within other bodies. Such inherent relationality
constitutes the essence of intercorporeality, and the chapters in this book
examine such relationality from a host of diverse perspectives. The book
begins with an introductory chapter in which the editors review the current
research on bodily interaction, and introduce the notion of intercorporeality
as a potentially integrative framework. The first section then offers four
chapters devoted to clarifying theoretical and developmental perspectives on
intercorporeality. Section 2 contains three chapters that provide insight on
intercorporeality from evolutionary, historical, and cross-sectional
perspectives. In Section 3, four chapters examine the intercorporeal nature of
meaning-making during human interaction. Section 4 then presents three
chapters that explore the intercorporeal nature of multi-agent interactions
and the role that non-animate bodies (i.e., objects) play in such interaction.
Throughout all the chapters, the authors work to integrate research in their
specific discipline into the larger, transdisciplinary notion of
intercorporeality. This collection provides an indisputably unique perspective
on bodies-in-interaction, while simultaneously offering an interdisciplinary
way forward in contemporary scholarship on bodies, meaning, and interaction.
