The self has a history. In the West, the idea of the soul entered Christianity
with the Church Fathers, notably Augustine. During the Renaissance the idea
of the individual attained pre-eminence, as in the works of Montaigne, while
later philosophers, such as Descartes, formulated notions of selfhood that did
not require a divine foundation. In the eighteenth century, we find thinkers
such as Hume growing sceptical of the self s very existence. Ideas of the self have
changed markedly since the Romantic period. Today most scholars regard it as
at best a mental construct.
Self-expression also has a history. First-person genres such as diaries and
memoirs have long provided an outlet for self-expression and since the
seventeenth century novels have competed with them in providing a way for
writers to speak about themselves. However, memoirs survived and continue to
thrive, while the diary has found a new incarnation in the personal blog.
Writing the Self narrates the intertwined histories of the self and of self-
expression through first-person literature.
