The Image of the Body in Its Historical Transformation

Year 2022, Volume: 1 Issue: 1, 31 - 45, 14.09.2022

Abstract

The concept of body has been studied for ages because it is subject to many fields such as medical science, chemistry, sociology, psychology, communication, marketing, fine arts and history. It is inevitable that body will be subject to many researches in the future as long as humanity exists. The aim of the article is to examine in detail the perception of the body, which started from the Ancient Greek and Roman periods to the present day and remained the same in some aspects. Even if the body will be handled from a communicative and sociological point of view within the scope of the article, revealing how it is handled in religions and mythological stories in the literature in the historical process serves the purpose of the study. In this context, the effects of Christianity on the body phenomenon in the Middle Ages were revealed under the subheadings of "Body in Ancient Greece and Rome", "Body in the Middle Ages" and "Body from the Renaissance to the Present", and finally, the importance attributed to the mind and body phenomena with the enlightenment was discussed how the body perception of women and men emerged from a single gender and how it changed and transformed from the Renaissance to the present day.
