Representation of the Self in the American Renaissance - Jeffrey Steele - Bog

Using the theories of Nietzche, Freud, Jung, and Lacan - as well as the critical insights of Derrida, Iser, Ricoeur, and others - Steele explains how Ralph Waldo Emerson, Henry David Thoreau, Walt Whitman, and Margaret Fuller attempted to influence readers by promoting psychological myths that functioned as ontological paradigms.
