by Miran Božovič
"An Utterly Dark Spot examines the elusive status of the body in early modern European philosophy by examining the body's various encounters with the gaze. The range of this work is impressive, moving from the Greek philosophers and theorists of the body to early modern thinkers to modern figures such as Jon Elster, Lacan, Althusser, Alfred Hitchcock, Stephen J. Gould, and others. Miran Bozovic provides glimpses into various foreign mentalities haunted by problems of divinity, immortality, creation, nature, and desire, provoking insights that invert familiar assumptions about the relationship between mind and body."--BOOK JACKET.
