The Mess Inside

Narrative, Emotion, and the Mind

Beschreibung

Peter Goldie explores the ways in which we think about our lives¿our past, present, and future¿in narrative terms. He draws on work in philosophy, psychology, history, and literature, and argues that although there may not be such a thing as a narrative self, having a narrative sense of self is at the heart of what it is to understand ourselves.
