Selfhood and Authenticity

By Corey Anton

Subjects: Self (philosophy), Self (Philosophy)

Description: "Drawing upon numerous influential thinkers of the twentieth century, including Heidegger Bakhtin, Merleau-Ponty, Sartre, Goffman, Schrag, and Taylor, Selfhood and Authenticity articulates the phenomenological constitution by which social construction is a real possibility. Anton brings phenomenology and existential philosophy to wider audiences and makes complex insights refreshingly lucid by systematically radicalizing and integrating notions of embodiment, sociality, symbolicity, and temporality."--BOOK JACKET.
