Abstract
“Somaesthetics” is a philosophical method that involves a reconceptualization of the human body and philosophy as an academic discipline. This article provides an analysis of somaesthetics as it specifically relates to philosophy of sport. Body practices performed in the context of sport are rich sites for analyzing philosophical concepts of selfawareness, self-cultivation, and self-knowledge. The implications of the disciplinary connections between sport and philosophical self-cultivation are examined. Verf.-Ref.
