Abstract
Since the existence of humanity, body has always been considered significant. It has not merely been analysed as a body, a living organism; rather, it has been analysed in terms of its socio-cultural facets and philosophical perspectives. Thus, the body has also been examined through its biological and cultural characteristics which resulted in arising oppositions between the body and soul and the body and mind. On this basis, philosophical and sociological evaluation of body is expressed briefly in this study. Furthermore, it is also within the purpose of this study to scrutinise socialised body characteristics in tandem with philosophical contexts through seminal critiques and theories. In this respect, Angela Carter’s narratives will also be mentioned since socialised body characteristics can also be seen in Carter’s characters, especially in the formation of their subversive body politics. Thus, selected works will be referenced to express sociological body movements of Carter’s characters and the representations of their socialised body politics.
