Book Synopsis
Considers the many ways in which autobiographical selves emerged from the late medieval period through the seventeenth century, with the aim of understanding the interaction between those individuals' lives and their worlds, the ways in which they could be recorded, and the contexts in which they are read.

Trade Review
The idea of the self, as seen from diverse and fascinating perspectives on sixteenth and seventeenth century life: this is what readers can expect from Early Modern Autobiography. A beautifully edited collection, genuinely far-reaching and insightful, Early Modern Autobiography makes known to us a great deal about how people saw themselves four hundred years ago. - Derek Cohen, Professor of English, McLaughlin College, York University
