Course Description

The course analyses the main methodological approaches - anthropological, phenomenological, sociological, psychoanalytic - but also the artistic traditions that directly involve the human body in the artistic process. It also focuses on the acquisition of the English and Greek terminology of the interdisciplinary approach to the body and the familiarisation of students with texts of important thinkers (Austin, De Certeau, Merleau-Ponty, Foucault, Deleuze etc.) from a selection of representative extracts from their work. Practical approaches to the body will be proposed through workshops with the aim of understanding the range of aesthetic, creative dimensions and bodily expression in art and everyday life.
