Abstract: Undoubtedly, the entire human culture is built around the architecture of the human body, even though the ways in which it is perceived and represented bear considerable differences throughout the world and throughout history. Pia Brînzeu’s Bodysong is a tribute to the body as an inexhaustible metaphor for every instance of human experience. Well-known for her research in British literature, semiotics, narratology, as well as for the invaluable help the textbooks she contributed to offer to students of English, Professor Pia Brînzeu changes the inquisitive pen of the critic for the writer’s quill. Published in 2010 by Interart Triade Foundation and BrumaR publishing house, Bodysong is a collection of over sixty essays which were initially published in Orizont cultural magazine. The series of essays collected in Bodysong is interspersed with beautiful and highly suggestive drawings by Andrei Medinski and ends with a postface by Adriana Babeți. The book itself is designed for visual and tactile joy. The atypical format of the page, the pale cream-coloured covers, the nostalgic texture of the paper, and the elegance of the font, everything in the material body of the book predicts a unique reading experience. | |||||||
