Elaine Scarry’s The Body in Pain: New Perspectives
This special issue of Subjectivity marks the 30th anniversary of the publication of Elaine Scarry’s book The Body in Pain. It reengages with her book by interrogating and expanding her conceptualisation of pain and tracing the relevance of her careful structural analyses of torture for understanding present-day practices of pleasure, war and entertainment.
