How have we thought GCGBPthe bodyGC How can we think it anew? The body of mortal creatures, the body politic, the body of letters and of laws, the GCGBPmystical body of ChristGCGCoall these (and others) are incorporated in the word Corpus, the title and topic of Jean-Luc NancyGCOs masterwork.Corpus is a work of literary force at once phenomenological, sociological, theological, and philosophical in its multiple orientations and approaches. In thirty-six brief sections, Nancy offers us at once an encyclopedia and a polemical programGreviewing classical takes on the GcorpusG from Plato, Aristotle, and Saint Paul to Descartes, Hegel, Husserl, and Freud, while demonstrating that the mutations (technological, biological, and political) of our own culture have given rise to the need for a new understanding of the body. He not only tells the story of this cultural change but also explores the promise and responsibilities that such a new understanding entails.The long-awaited English translation is a bold, bravura rendering. To the title essay are added five closely related recent piecesGincluding a commentary by Antonia BirnbaumGdedicated in large part to the legacy of the Gmind-body problemG formulated by Descartes and the challenge it poses to rethinking the ancient problems of the corpus. The last and most poignant of these essays is GThe Intruder,G NancyGs philosophical meditation on his heart transplant. The book also serves as the opening move in NancyGs larger project called GThe deconstruction of Christianity.G
