In 1905 the French ="trms">neurologists G. Deny and P. Camus recounted the case of Madame I who had lost body awareness. She described her “general insensibility” as follows='lgc'>: “I'm no longer aware of myself as I used to be. I can no longer feel my arms, my legs, my head, and my hair. I have to touch myself constantly in order to know how I am. I have the feeling that my entire body is changed, even at times that it no longer exists. I touch an object, but it is not I who am touching it. I no longer feel as I used to. I cannot find myself. I cannot ="trms">imagine myself. My insensibility is f="trms"nttrm="righ,rigo,riga,rigi,trig,rign">rightening, as if everything were empty.” Madame I was unable to recognize the ="trms">position of her arms and legs and was completely insensitive to pain. ="trms">According to Israel ="ppl">Rosenfeld's thesis, Madame I was unable to know her body as part of her ="trms">memory. (her brain could not create a ="nms">body image) She could not ="trms">imagine, or create in her mind, images of parents or the houses where she had lived. Lacking a continuous image of herself, she could re-create momentary images only when she was verifying to herself that she had a body. (see Strange, Familiar and Forgotten pp 40-42)
“If all self-reference were destroyed, consciousness and understanding would not be possible.
“Meaning and understanding are parts of the structure of consciousness that emerge from self-reference; they cannot exist without a ="nms">body image.” (p.55)
“Self-reference is not a hypothetical idea but a de="trms">monstrable part of the structure of consciousness; a partial breakdown in the physiological mechanisms that create it give us the ="trms">phenomenon of ="nms">phantom limbs.” (p.56)
Two English ="trms">neurologists, Lord Russell Brain and Henry Head (!) coined the phrase “="nms">body image” for the ="trms">internal image and ="trms">memory of one's body in space and time. The ="nms">body image is not only a picture of the body but also an anticipatory plan for the detailed movements of the body, and rather than a fixed structure, it is dynamic and plastic, capable of reorganizing itself radically with the ="trms">contingencies of experience.
The ="nms">body image can also incorporate external object, implements, and ="trms">instruments. When they are being used, they can become intimate, vital, even libidinally cathected parts of the ="nms">body image.
