{"product_id":"elevated-realms-an-anatomy-sara-crangle-9781399524339","title":"Elevated Realms - An Anatomy of Mina Loy","description":"\u003cp\u003eMina Loy is recognised as a writer who insists on the primacy of the body, but her fascination with corporeality is inextricable from her esoteric understanding of the soul. Over two volumes, Sara Crangle demonstrates how Loy's visceral focus propels a prescient feminist vision that aims to resituate marginalised subjects within modernist culture.\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eElevated Realms - An Anatomy of Mina Loy\u003c\/i\u003e is the first book-length study devoted to Loy's affinities with alternative spiritualities ancient and modern. Aligning Loy's heterodoxies with her vanguardism, this volume analyses Loy's engagements with mesmerism, spiritualism, and telepathy; enchantment and visionariness; psychoanalysis, philosophy, and physics; Christian Science and Theosophy.\u003cbr\u003eAttending to Loy's presentations of the upper half of the body - heartscapes, spines, eyes, nerve centres - \u003ci\u003eElevated Realms\u003c\/i\u003e unearths the coordinates of Loy's esoteric Eros, a transcendent, orgasmic love that is cosmic, aesthetic, and a corrective to women's disregarded satiation. The counterpart to her acerbic feminist satires, Loy's Eros transforms abjectified, feminised posturing. Always singular, Loy's embodied mysticism remains a potent model for the study of feminist spirituality in the modernist period and beyond.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sara Crangle\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 139952433X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781399524339\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Edinburgh University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/31\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 312\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback","brand":"Sara Crangle","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47001407553791,"sku":"9781399524339","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d460876b-02e4-4ba1-9004-c8033573cb8a.jpg?v=1751600982","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/elevated-realms-an-anatomy-sara-crangle-9781399524339","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
