Author:  Brent R. LaPadula 

The concept of the individual or the self, central in so many modern-day contexts, has not been investigated in depth in the Anglo-Saxon period. Focusing on Old English poetry, the author argues that a singular, Anglo-Saxon sense of self may be found by analyzing their surviving verse. The concept of the individual, with an identity outside of her community, is clearly evident during this period, and the widely accepted view that the individual as we understand it did not really exist until the Renaissance does not stand up to scrutiny.

Table of contents:

1. The Paradigm of Identity in Old English Literature: The Self as a Social Construct
2. Memory and Identity Formation: A Cognitive Construction of the Self in The Wanderer and The Seafarer
3. Living Vicariously and Identity Schema: The Multiple Selves of the ­Anglo-Saxon Scop
