The Public Domain Review: Selected Essays vol.1-vol.5

https://publicdomainreview.org/

 

Public Domain Review は身体の歴史の面白いサイトで、訪問する方も多いと思う。私もよく訪問する。もちろん引用されている文献をチェックしたりすることが多いが、笑ってしまう話も多い。

来年度の学部1・2年生向けの歴史学は、<身体の歴史>という概念で組み立てることにした。<身体の歴史>というのはまだ慣れていない歴史学の講義である。身体の歴史をどうやって構成するのか、春学期と秋学期を時系列で並べないとしたらどのように組み立てるのか、色々考えることが多い。

以下は2014年から2018年に刊行された5冊の選集の目次。考えたら来年の授業の感じもわかってくるのかもしれない。
