The moderns are reflexive in a double sense: they create themselves by self-reflexivity and make their world – society – in their own image. That the social world is reflexive means that it is made up of non-subjective (or supra-subjective) communication. The volume's contributors analyze this double reflexivity, of the self and society, from an interdisciplinary perspective, focusing both on individual and social narratives. This broad, interdisciplinary approach is a distinctive mark of the entire project. The volume will be structured around the following axes: Self-making and reflexivity – theoretical topics; Social self and the modern world; Literature – self and narrativity; Creative Self – text and fine art. Among the contributors are some of the most renowned specialists in their respective fields, including J. F. Kervégan, B. Zabel, P. Stekeler-Weithofer, I. James, L. Kvasz, H. Ikäheimo and others. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"De Gruyter","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53516620202327,"sku":"9783110698459","price":107.82,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/perspectives-on-the-self-reflexivity-in-the-humanities-9783110698459","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
