초록
In the midst of overflowing discourses on the body, this paper aims to compare Lawrence’s thinking of the body with that of Jean-Luc Nancy and gain a new understanding of the nature of the body. Pointing out that the body is not an object of knowledge, but an experience in itself, both of them emphasize that the body is open to itself and to other bodies. For Nancy, the body, an open space where existence takes place, is not a substance. It always comes to its presence; it is an aperture, a self in departure, repeating its movements of arriving and withdrawing. Also a body cannot exist alone; it co-exists; it is exposed to other bodies, always already in touch with them. Lawrence, with his relational thinking and his firm belief in the ever-flowing, living present of being, shares these ideas and explores how man can achieve a harmonious relationship with his circumambient universe, avoiding the disastrous damages brought about by the death of the body in the modern society. There is, however, an unbridgeable gap between their thoughts. While Lawrence lays stress on the integrity of embodied self, Nancy argues that the body, constituted by fragmentation of parts and division of senses, is never completely whole nor proper. This discord reminds us of the elusiveness of the body that demands continual efforts to keep our thinking in contact with it.
Abstract
In the midst of overflowing discourses on the body, this paper aims to compare Lawrence’s thinking of the body with that of Jean-Luc Nancy and gain a new understanding of the nature of the body. Pointing out that the body is not an object of knowledge, but an experience in itself, both of them emphasize that the body is open to itself and to other bodies. For Nancy, the body, an open space where existence takes place, is not a substance. It always comes to its presence; it is an aperture, a self in departure, repeating its movements of arriving and withdrawing. Also a body cannot exist alone; it co-exists; it is exposed to other bodies, always already in touch with them. Lawrence, with his relational thinking and his firm belief in the ever-flowing, living present of being, shares these ideas and explores how man can achieve a harmonious relationship with his circumambient universe, avoiding the disastrous damages brought about by the death of the body in the modern society. There is, however, an unbridgeable gap between their thoughts. While Lawrence lays stress on the integrity of embodied self, Nancy argues that the body, constituted by fragmentation of parts and division of senses, is never completely whole nor proper. This discord reminds us of the elusiveness of the body that demands continual efforts to keep our thinking in contact with it.
