Subject: Re: (pre)language/the body


Can we know our bodies through language?  If language is a creation by
humans, and we use it to describe and define things, it seems plausible that
we can know our bodies through language.  It may be abstract and somewhat
limited by the words we use, but a definition can be constructed about the
body.  Tom T.
