This book explores various attempts throughout the history of linguistics to explain language in terms of the body, and how these attempts contribute to, and challenge, the more mainstream, mind-based accounts of language. Covering linguistics, philosophy, psychology and medicine, as well as literary and religious dimensions, it explores the question: where is language?
