<br/><br/> A deeply autobiographical journey through disparate written texts (in literature, philosophy, theology and religion), art, and cinema, The Sacred Body rigorously and artfully pursues the body of the Christian tradition of “the Word made flesh” - a body torn and crucified, resurrected, and divinized, embracing both deep suffering and profound joy.
