Description

Explore the complex relationship between the human body and the concept of self in Body and Identity: A History of the Empty Self. Written by Angela Franks and published by University of Notre Dame Press, this work offers a broad intellectual history of how we understand who we are. As modern questions about our bodies and self-perception become increasingly complex, this book provides a foundation for navigating contemporary identity politics. Franks examines the historical roots of these issues, with a specific focus on how Christian thought has shaped our understanding of the self. By breaking down the term identity into three core meanings - identity through time, the authentic or true self, and our awareness of ourselves - the author helps readers build a better understanding of these fundamental concepts. This text is an essential resource for those studying theology, philosophy, and the historical development of human identity.

Examines the significant role of Christianity in shaping our understanding of the self.

Offers clarity on modern identity politics by exploring the roots of contemporary questions.
