The Human Body

equivalent to the understanding the
universe itself.“ --- Leonardo Da Vinci

 OUR THOUGHTS, VALUES AND


WORLDVIEWS HAVE ALWAYS BEEN
"EMBODIED" in the sense that we
actively use the body to help us
understand not only ourselves but
also the world around us. Meaning, it is
easy to come by when the body is
implicated in our meaning-making
activities and processes.

Physical Description
EXTENDED SELF
RUSSELL BELK

 Our properties are part of the self

McClelland (1951): the external


properties (clothing, tools, parts of the
body such as hair, nails etc.) is part of
the self and we have power over
them. We have more control over
them and it’s increasingly becoming
part of ourselves.
THE EXTENSION OF SELF
Ayon kay Prelinger, ang mga bagay na ating pag-
aari ay inaari rin tayo.

Prelinger said, the things we


own are also the things that
owns us.
(Belk)
the loss of our possessions
accidentally or intentionally
for any reasons, are also
losing ourselves.
Ang pagsasauli ng bagay na nawala ay ang
pagbabalik ng sarili.

Having back the lost


things is the return of
ourself.
