Corpo e cultura : noções contemporâneas

Abstract

The present work aims to address contemporary notions of body and culture. To describe some ways we use to conceive culture and contemporaneity is an important way to undestand the strengthening of the ideas and analysis about the body. The notion of culture, which content we show here,is that the interconnected cultural aspects have different meaning sand also contribute to contemporary process of virtualization of the body, with new tools and their relationship with technology, collaborate for a different or postmodern view about the relationship between body and culture. From a notion of guarded and disciplined body, result of modernity, it slowly becomes in contemporary life a controlled and potentially virtualized body. In this undertaking it´s our duty to understand the recursive relation of the body with their creative processes and their implications within the contemporary culture. The objective of the research, besides to proceed a literature review around the theme is to analyse the relantionship of the body on the contemporary culture under the multiple ways of (re)creation and reason the different conceptions of culture. It will be essencial to map the cultural changes and identify the hybridizations which dialectically collaborate to the constant autopoiético process between bodies and cultures. As our mental process, the culture create themselves, and through the recursive relationship with the bodies, the cultures generate and preserve themselves. To describe some ways we conceive culture in contemporaneity and understand its hybridization processes is one of the important paths to understand the strengthening of the ideas and the analysis about the body.
