Professor Anthony J. Steinbock "The Role of the Body in Mystical Experience." Abstract This paper addresses the evidence of mystical experiences as the latter concern the body. Such experiences pertain to different ways of sensing and point to the phenomenon of "incarnate" experience. I examine incarnate experience first by describing different modes of reception or givenness, then by drawing out implications for incarnate experience, and finally by examining the question of hermeneutics and the problem of evidence. Anthony J. Steinbock is Professor of Philosophy at the Southern Illinois University at Carbondale. He is translator of Husserl's Analyses Concerning Passive & Active Syntheses (Kluwer 2001). His books include Phenomenology and Mysticism (Indiana 2007), Home and Beyond: Generative Phenomenology after Husserl (Northwestern 1995) and, as editor, Phenomenology in Japan (Kluwer 1998).
