Abstract

“This body is mine!”—These words, accompanied by my finger pointing towards my chest, can be nothing but true. My body belongs to me; my body is mine. But when, or in what situation, might I find myself obliged to pronounce these words? Mostly when someone is trying to get hold of my body.
