Heavily represented sections of contemporary philosophy subscribe to the notion of "embodiment". The book subdivides this sphere into three parts: imitation, substitution, and the pure effect of the form. All three parts are contemplated with examples from antiquity through to the present and the iconoclastic controversies of our times.
