Abstract
The grotesque body is the belching, farting, gluttonous, lusting, creative, procreative body; it is a body having sex, giving birth, being born, eating and shitting, living and dying; it is the body of the marketplace (as distinct from the market) and it is the popular body (as distinct from the official body). The champion of the grotesque body was the Russian literary theorist, early Soviet semiotician and internal exile under Stalin’s regime, Mikhail Bakhtin (1895–C1975) in his book on the carnival first published in Russian in 1965.KeywordsPrivate SphereLower StratumExpressive FeatureRomantic PoetNature WritingThese keywords were added by machine and not by the authors.
