As well as engaging the tools and methods of literary analysis, the study uses a cultural studies approach to offer a constellation of ideas and polemics surrounding the readability of the human body. By including discussions from the medical sciences, epistemology, semiotics, and aesthetics, the book draws out the multifaceted permutations of corporeal legibility, as well as its relevance for the development of the novel and for facilitating interdisciplinary dialogue.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Gabriela Stoicea\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 383764720X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783837647204\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Transcript Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/27\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 200\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.60lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.42d","brand":"Gabriela Stoicea","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43983481241855,"sku":"9783837647204","price":60.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_c756518d-c2aa-40b6-ae7a-3d1001bd6534.jpg?v=1683266903","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/fictions-of-legibility-gabriela-stoicea-9783837647204","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
