Corporeal identity dimension

Author(s): Jurga Jonutytė, Giedrė Šmitienė

Summary/Abstract: The idea of this publication came from the perception of corporeality as a possible study of the national identity. This access opens up as an experience of identity. This method of investigation is relevant, as it counterbalts today's popular interest in the chosen, decision-making identity, uncovering the rooting of identity in a carnal being, and its expression as direct experience. There are various relationships between active and passive identities: from mutual isolation to interaction.
