Chapter 1: Introduction: Cultural Ontology of the Self in Pain -- PART-I: Ontology of Pain -- Chapter 2: Ontology of Pain in Moral Theories -- Chapter 3: The Familiar Stranger: On the Loss of Self in Intense Bodily Pain -- Chapter 4: Waiting to Speak: A Phenomenological Perspective on our Silence around Dying -- Chapter 5: Pain and Catharsis in Art, Ritual and Therapy -- Chapter 6: Traditional Philosophies and Gandhi's Approach to the Self in Pain -- PART-II: Culture, Politics and Ethics of Pain -- "Hurt" by Daniel Becker -- Chapter 7: The Infinite Faces of Pain: Narrative, Eros, and Ethics -- Chapter 8: Shame, Placebo and World-Taking Cognitivism -- Chapter 9: Self and Suffering in Buddhism and Phenomenology: Existential Pain, Compassion and the Problems of Institutional Healthcare -- Chapter 10: Many Faces of Woman's Pain -- Chapter 11: Pain and Agency: On the Essential Importance of Vulnerability and Transgression -- PART-III: Social Contexts of Pain -- Chapter 12: Dislocations, Marginalisations, Past and Present: Pain-Experiences Two Marginalised Communities -- Chapter 13: AFSPA and the Tortured Bodies: The Politics of Pain in Manipur -- Chapter 14: Medical Mission and the Interpretation of Pain.

The mainstream approach to the understanding of pain continues to be governed by the biomedical paradigm and the dualistic Cartesian ontology. This Volume brings together essays of scholars of literature, philosophy and history on the many enigmatic shades of pain-experience, mostly from an anti-Cartesian perspective of cultural ontology by scholars of literature, philosophy and history. A section of the essays is devoted to the socio-political dimensions of pain in the Indian context. The book offers a critical perspective on the reductive conceptions of pain and argue that non-substance ontology or cultural ontology supports a more humane and authentic understanding of pain. The general ontological features of the self in pain and culturally imbued dimensions of pain-experience are, thus, brought together in a rare blend in this Volume. The essays dwell on the importance of understanding what cultural, social and political forces outside our control do to our pain-experience. They show why such understanding is necessary, both to humanely deal with pain, and to rectify erroneous approaches to pain-experience. They also explore the thoroughly ambivalent spaces between pain and pleasure, and the cathartic and productive dimensions of pain. The essays in this Volume investigate pain-experiences through the fresh lenses of history, gender, ethics, politics, death, illness, self-loss, torture, shame, dispossession and denial.
