They examine these models from a number of viewpoints, including the history of ideas, contemporary gender politics, and post-modernist literary theory.Rewriting the Self offers a challenge to the received version of the "ascent of western man". Lively and controversial, the book broaches big questions in an accessible way.The contributors are:Peter Burke, Roger Cardinal, Stephen Connor, Johnathan Dollimore, Terry Eagleton, Kate Flint, E.J. Hundert, John Mullan, Linda Nead, Daniel Pick, Nikolas Rose, Jonathan Sawday, Jane Shaw, Roger Smith, Sylvana Tomaselli and Carolyn D. Williams.
