Synopsis "Narrating the Self in Early Modern Europe L'ecriture de soi Dans L'europe Moderne (European Connections)"

What does it mean to narrate the self? Is there a 'self' to be narrated? What form should such narratives or writings take? The authors of the sixteen essays collected in this volume use a variety of approaches to study a broad range of what are now called 'ego-documents' from the Renaissance to the beginning of the nineteenth century. From them it emerges that 'the self' is not an acknowledged fact, but rather a historical process, which is neither linear nor stable. Que peut bien signifier l'écriture de soi à l'époque moderne ? Y a-t-il mème un « moi » à décrire et raconter ? Quelles formes peuvent prendre de tels récits ? Les seize contributions rassemblées dans ce volume cherchent à répondre à ces questions en interrogeant, suivant diverses approches, une grande variété de textes de la Renaissance à la Révolution, relevant de ce que l'historiographie tend à nommer des « ego-documents ». A travers l'étude de ces textes, il apparaît que le « moi », loin d'ètre un donné universel, est le fruit d'un processus historique qui n'est ni linéaire ni stable.
