Krátky popis
You can tell a lot about people by how they walk. Matthew Beaumont
argues that our standing, walking body holds the social traumas of
history and its racialized inequalities. Our posture and gait
reflect our social and political experiences as we navigate the
city under capitalism.Through a series of dialogues with thinkers
and walkers, his book explores the relationship between freedom and
the human bodyHow We Walk foregrounds the work of Frantz Fanon,
psychiatrist and leading thinker of liberation, who was one of the
first people to think about the politics of 'walking while black'.
It also introduces us to the renegade psychoanalyst Wilhelm Reich,
who wrote that one could discern the truth about a person through
their posture and gait. For Marxist philosopher Ernst Bloch, the
ability to walk upright and with ease is a sign of personal and
social freedom.Through these excursions, Beaumont reimagines the
canonical literature on walking and presents a new interpretation
of the impact of class and race on our physical and political
mobility, raising important questions about the politics of the
body.
