Life-writing and the study of egodocuments currently tend to be viewed as separate fields, yet the individual as a purposive social actor provides significant common ground and offers a vehicle, both theoretical and practical, for a profitable synthesis of the two in a historical context. Echoing scholars from a wide-range of disciplines who recognize the uncertainty of the nature of the self, these essays question the notion of the autonomous self and the attendant idea of continuous identity unfolding in a unified personality. Instead, they suggest that the early modern self was variable and unstable, and can only be grasped by exploring selves situated in specific historical and social/cultural contexts and revealed through the wide range of historical documents considered here. The three sections of the volume consider: first, the theoretical contexts of understanding egodocuments in early modern Europe; then, the practical ways egodocuments from the period may be used for writing life-histories today; and finally, a wider range of historical documents that might be added to what are usually seen as egodocuments. 001444071 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 001444071 650_0 $$aAutobiography$$xEuropean authors$$xHistory and criticism. 001444071 650_0 $$aSelf (Philosophy)$$zEurope$$xHistory$$y16th century. 001444071 650_0 $$aSelf (Philosophy)$$zEurope$$xHistory$$y17th century. 001444071 650_6 $$aAutobiographie$$xAuteurs européens$$xHistoire et critique. 001444071 650_6 $$aMoi (Philosophie)$$zEurope$$xHistoire$$y16e siècle. 001444071 650_6 $$aMoi (Philosophie)$$zEurope$$xHistoire$$y17e siècle. 001444071 655_7 $$aCriticism, interpretation, etc.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01411635 001444071 655_7 $$aHistory.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01411628 001444071 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001444071 7001_ $$aFarr, James Richard,$$d1950-$$eeditor. 001444071 7001_ $$aRuggiero, Guido,$$d1944-$$eeditor. 001444071 77608 $$iPrint version:$$tHistoricizing life-writing and egodocuments in early modern Europe.$$dBasingstoke : Palgrave Macmillan, 2021$$z9783030824822$$w(OCoLC)1264404527 001444071 852__ $$bebk 001444071 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-030-82483-9$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001444071 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1444071$$pGLOBAL_SET 001444071 980__ $$aBIB 001444071 980__ $$aEBOOK 001444071 982__ $$aEbook 001444071 983__ $$aOnline 001444071 994__ $$a92$$bISE
