Böcker av Max Ryynanen

This edited volume traces cultural appearances of disgust and investigates the varied forms and functions disgust takes and is given in both established and vernacular cultural practises.

This book builds a new understanding of the body and its relationship to images and technology, using a framework where novel writings of pragmatist somaesthetics and phenomenology meet new research on bodily reactions.

The essays in this co-written book examine architectural dereliction and its experience, interpretation and even appropriation in classical arts and popular culture, with a special focus on how the various forms of aestheticisation of the past can serve the understanding of our contemporary state of culture.
