O CORPO (IM)PENETRÁVEL: MAGIA E IMAGEM HEGEMÔNICA DO CORPO NA ESCANDINÁVIA MEDIEVAL

Autores

Resumo

Studies regarding how the body was understood in Medieval Scandinavia’s cultural milieu are still scarce. Assuming that a socially constructed and hegemonic model of bodily image circulates in societies offering a frame of reference within which the body is understood, we aim to point out how the hegemonic model concerning the body in Medieval Scandinavia was perceived in terms of (im)penetrability. Considering we are investigating a Pre-Modern society, we must also pay attention to the relationship between magic and the conception of the body, demonstrating how magic ends up reinforcing the hegemonic image of the body and also organizing the way that the different forces and agents impact its physical limits, whether supernatural or not.
