Issue 8 (Autumn 2006): Un/Worldly Bodies
The body in all its manifestations is the theme for this eighth issue, 'Un/Worldly Bodies'. We are proud to publish a range of articles which approach this exciting topic from a refreshing variety of theoretical perspectives. From masks and figures on pottery in Ancient Greece to the abject female body in nineteenth century Gothic fiction; from post-colonial Marxist readings of the body in contemporary Indian drama to the ideal parental body in British law, this issue really does cover a wide range of subjects and, we feel, is a fitting addition to eSharp's rapidly-growing archive of multi-disciplinary publications.
Articles are in PDF format. If you do not already have Adobe Reader on your computer, you can download it for free from www.adobe.com.
