Vol. 2 No. 16 (2006): El cuerpo figurado
In recent years, numerous investigations have made the human body their object of study from different disciplines and in equally varied texts and contexts. In semiotics, interest has been moving towards a conception of the body as the very source of all meaning and the place from which the relationship of the human being with the world is defined.
The articles contained in this issue explore from literature, art and anthropology, those processes of figuration that intervene in the construction of the discourse as a sensitive and corporeal presence, as well as those through which human body becomes a discursive construction.
