Bodies of Thought: Thoughts about the Body in Eighteenth-Century England

Abstract

Roy Porter uses the polarity of mind and body to show how the praise of the former at the expense of the latter has been a recurring theme in Western culture, whether in medieval religion or twentieth-century Freudian theory. These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.
