Rezensionen

'Salter's strikingly original and intelligent new book explores how individuals in this period sought to articulate a sense of selfhood to themselves and others through a variety of textual and cultural transactions: to literally create themselves...The implications of this book are potentially wide-ranging, though it is likely to be of most value to social and cultural historians'. - Matthew Woodcock, Medium Aevum
