Description

The Goffman Reader offers a comprehensive collection of the writings and ideas of Erving Goffman (1922-1982). As one of the most unique and individualistic thinkers in American sociology, Goffman introduced groundbreaking concepts that challenged the formal and traditional sociology of the early 1950s. This volume organizes his significant work into four distinct categories: the production of self, the confined self, the nature of social life, and the framing of experience. By grouping his research this way, the collection helps readers follow the progression of his thought and understand his impact on the field of sociology. This reader is an essential resource for students, academics, and anyone interested in the foundations of modern sociological thought. It provides a clear pathway through the diverse ideas that made Goffman a central figure in the study of social interaction and human behavior.

Key Features

Organized into four clear categories: the production of self, the confined self, the nature of social life, and the framing of experience.

Provides historical context by presenting works that emerged during a period of traditional sociology.

A structured way to explore the unique and individualistic ideas of a major American sociologist.

Designed to help readers follow the development of Goffman's influential social theories.
