Beyond Argument offers an in-depth examination of how current ways of thinking about the writer-page relation in personal essays can be reconceived according to practices in the care of the self — an ethic by which writers such as Seneca, Montaigne, and Nietzsche lived. This approach promises to reinvigorate the form and address many of the concerns expressed by essay scholars and writers regarding the lack of rigorous exploration we see in our students' personal essays — and sometimes, even, in our own. In pursuing this approach, Sarah Allen presents a version of subjectivity that enables productive debate in the essay, among essays, and beyond.

American writer Julien Green's (1900--1998) origins, artistic motivation, and identity was a source of mystery and confusion even for those that most fêted him. The first non-French national to be elected to the Académie française, Green authored several novels ( The Dark Journey, The Closed Garden, Moira, Each Man in His Darkness, and the Dixie trilogy), a four-volume autobiography ( The Green Paradise, The War at Sixteen, Love in America and Restless Youth), and his famous Diary.In this study, John. M Dunaway begins with an examination of the autobiographical context of Julien Green's wor

"La conception de soi-même à Rome n'a que peu à voir avec celle qui semble triompher à la fin du XVIIIe siècle en Europe, où l'on assiste littéralement à la naissance d'un genre promis à un grand avenir: l'autobiographie. La correspondance de Cicéron, "ego-ducument" de première importance, fournit un angle d'étude particulièrement intéressant à cet égard. Elle témoigne, dans le cadre d'une sociabilité fondée sur les devoirs imposés par l'amicitia, des formes et des contraintes qui présidaient à la représentation de soi-même au sein de l'élite romaine. Mais surtout, inséparable des crises de la République tardive, elle développait un discours innovant où la priorité était parfois moins l'information que l'examen du rôle adéquat à jouer. Écrire devenait alors un art de l'évaluation des circonstances et de l'acte approprié: une technique de soi, développée avec les amici docti dans un cadre privé, une des formes que pouvait prendre à Rome le souci politique de soi-même."--Back cover.

"God only knows how many diverse, captivating impressions and thoughts evoked by these impressions... pass in a single day. If it were only possible to render them in such a way that I could easily read myself and that others could read me as I do..." Such was the desire of the young Tolstoy. Although he knew that this narrative utopia-turning the totality of his life into a book-would remain unfulfilled, Tolstoy would spend the rest of his life attempting to achieve it. "Who, What Am I?" is an account of Tolstoy's lifelong attempt to find adequate ways to represent the self, to probe its limits and, ultimately, to arrive at an identity not based on the bodily self and its accumulated life experience.This book guides readers through the voluminous, highly personal nonfiction writings that Tolstoy produced from the 1850s until his death in 1910. The variety of these texts is enormous, including diaries, religious tracts, personal confessions, letters, autobiographical fragments, and the meticulous accounts of dreams. For Tolstoy, inherent in the structure of the narrative form was a conception of life that accorded linear temporal order a predominant role, and this implied finitude. He refused to accept that human life stopped with death and that the self was limited to what could be remembered and told. In short, his was a philosophical and religious quest, and he followed in the footsteps of many, from Plato and Augustine to Rousseau and Schopenhauer. In reconstructing Tolstoy's struggles, this book reflects on the problems of self and narrative as well as provides an intellectual and psychological biography of the writer.
