In the post-industrial society, concerns about the body have devoted to extend the concept of body from its physical level to the spiritual and corporeal level. Now body is not only an instrument which expresses one's personal character, but also an abstract concept which shows one's identity. Through this tendency, body image as a representation becomes notable as much as physical body itself. This tendency has been exaggerated especially for women and the socio-cultural common notion is forcing them to internalize it by presenting several stereotypes of body image. The concept of body image, a rising academic subject becoming a socio-cultural matter of interest, bears an epistemological base about spirit, body, and individual/social character. As the discussion about body develops in the field of women's studies, deepened discussions about body image are in progress. In this article interaction between the making of stereotypes of the female body in the socio-cultural circumstance and the process of internalization of these stereotypes is analyzed. For the analysis, the hypothesis was established that this interaction constructs the making process of body image. The analyzed materials are images and texts for advertisements, and other materials for public relations which are posted on the homepage of body-line consulting company M. The results of this analysis are to summarize as follows; the stereotypes of the female body image in Korea are very similar to those of westerners, and male gaze plays a big role in the construction of female body image through the internationalization of the gaze by women. According to these results, it is necessary to consider the effort that women should strive to produce and to develop healthy female body images.

This paper examines the epistemology of the body and the direction of Christian education based on it. Looking at Merleau-Ponty, Damagio, and Nelson's epistemology of the body, it found that they had a common point, even though they studied in different areas like philosophy, brain science, and body theology; the body is a subject that perceives the world in a sensuous and direct way, and is a channel that mediates humans and the world, and plays a decisive role in human self-formation. In particular, theology of body revealed, that the body is a pathway for our understanding of God just as a pathway for our understanding the world. In addition, theology of body revealed that the body is regarded as the place of 'embodiment of God', and in the end, the world in which our incarnated body participates should also become the place of 'God's incarnation'. It also examined Christian education based on the epistemology of the body, focusing on 'education starting from the senses', 'education as a participation', and 'incarnational education'. From these three concepts, it found that epistemology of body suggests an alternative view of traditional knowledge-based education or schooling education. It suggests an open paradigm centered on sense and experience, personal participation, non-verbal experience, and field of education, beyond a fixed and closed paradigm of doctrine-centered, objective knowledge mediation, language-centered, and content-centered. Furthermore, this paper found that the body is like a well that can pump up metaphors that provide a basic metaphor for re-conceptualizing Christian education.

인문학은 인간에 대한 깊은 성찰과 세계에 대한 폭넓은 조망에서 잉태한다. 이런 인문학 교육은 인문대학만이 아니라 전반적인 의료교육 현장에 접목되어야 한다. 따라서 인문학 역시 현실을 도외시한 언어유희가 아니라 현실속의 사회 문화적 통로를 접근하는 방식으로 도입되어야 한다. 인문학적 성찰은 전문가만의 소유물이 아니다. 특히 의료인문학적 성찰은 죽은 몸이 아니라 살아 있는 몸을 다루는 임상행위의 전제이다. 이렇게 살아 있는 생명의 몸을 다루는 의학 부문에서 과학적 설명의 적용범위와 그 실현가능성은 아직 충족되고 있지 않다. 이는 과학탐구 대상으로서의 톰과 증상과 치료의 대상으로서의 구체적인 의학적 몸 사이의 간극이 있음을 무시할 수 없다는 점이다. 인문학적으로는 설명 장르의 몸에서 제외된 이해 장르의 몸이 다시 조명되어야 한다. 정확히 말하면 설명 장르와 이해 장르가 통합되어야 한다는 뜻이기도 하다. 이러한 인문학적 반성이란 추상적 이론으로 그쳐서는 안 되며, 의학과 의료 현실에 어떻게 실천적으로 적용가능한지를 질문하는 일이다. 이 논문에서는 그 적용사례로서 증거중심의학(EBM)과 문제기반학습(PBL)를 다루었다.

꾸준히 운동을 실천하는 것은 에너지를 적절하게 소모시켜 체중조절에 도움을 준다. 특히, 숨이 약간 차고 땀이 나는 정도의 신체활동은 몸에 좋은 HDL-콜레스테롤을 증가시키고, 몸에 좋지 않은 LDL-콜레스테롤은 감소시킨다.

본 논문은 우리사회에서 끊임없이 부각되고 있는 몸에 대한 담론에 대한 현상을 살펴보는데 목적을 갖고 있다. 특히 미디어에서 표출되고 몸에 대한 신드롬은 지속적으로 부각되고 있다. 다이어트를 통한 몸짱 만들기 프로그램은 다양한 형식과 구성으로 제작되고 있는 실정이다. 그러므로 본 연구에서는 미디어를 통해서 형성되고 있는 몸에 대한 신드롬 형성 용인과 가치기준의 판단이 수용자에 미치는 영향과 사회문화적 현상에 대해 논의하고자 한다.

During incubation, pelagic seabirds undergo large variations in their body mass as a result of concomitant fasting. In Procellariifomes undergoing important changes in body mass through the incubation, body mass regulation could be an important factor in behavioural decisions for changing activities during the incubation. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of individuals' quality and incubation behaviour on their body mass regulation in Streaked Shearwaters Calonectris leucomelas breeding at Sasudo Island, in Jeju, South Korea during incubation period, June to August in 2013. In our results, we found that there was no relationship between the daily body mass loss and body size or condition of Streaked Shearwaters. However, the daily body mass loss increased significantly as the incubation bout increased. Moreover, the daily incubation bout was positively related to their body size. Consequently, although breeders' qualities were not related to their daily body mass loss during the incubation, the incubation behaviour affecting their daily body mass loss was regulated by their body size. Therefore, the body size of Streaked Shearwater breeders is one of important factors in their decisions for the incubation behaviour.

의복이란 인간이 생활하기 위해서 필수적인 의ㆍ식ㆍ주 중의 하나로 외부로부터 몸을 보호 해주고 성별, 직업, 신분 등을 나타내주기도 하며 몸을 장식해주는 역할을 한다. 인간은 석기시대 이전부터 자신의 몸을 장식하였으며, 그 수단으로 여러 가지 종류의 장신구가 발달하였는데, 단추도 그러한 장신구 중의 하나이다. 단추는 의복의 일부분이지만 각 시대에 따라 그 사회의 문화를 반영하고 있으며 의복과 마찬가지로 기능성, 장식성과 상징적인 가치를 지니고 있다. (중략)

사람의 몸을 이루고 있는 세포들은 이웃끼리 대화도 나누고 몸 전체의 균형을 위해 자살도 한다. 오래된 세포는 옆에 있는 세포가 죽어달라고 요청하면 즉시 스스로 목숨을 끊는다. 그러나 암세포는 이러한 자살명령을 거부하고 제멋대로 자라게 되어 몸의 균형을 잃게 한다. 암세포도 일반 세포처럼 스스로 자살을 할 수 있도록 하는 길을 열면 암은 정복될 것이다.
