In the discourse of a given historic epoch, body and corporality have always represented social and cultural processes taking place in a particular historical period. The history of the body, or problematizing of the categories of body, corporality, and sexuality, reflected major cultural, political, and economic trends. The history of the body is the history of an epoch.
