The purpose of the text is neither a review nor a critique of Anik Waldow’s approach to the modern concept of embodiment. However, I think there are multiple notions of the body that can be distinguished in modern texts, and these are often left undifferentiated. Since Waldow focuses herself on the anatomical concept of body, it is appropriate to draw attention to the other concept of the body, the body of perception, the sentient body as the center of perspectives, the attractive body, the body of skills, the body as unknown source of impressions, I will confine myself to brief remarks concerning embodiment in Descartes and Hume, particularly with regard to the difference between the subjective, lived body as the center of perspectives and the objective, anatomical body. Similar remarks could be addressed to other philosophers discussed in the text.
