The Presentation of Self in Everyday Life (book)
Definition(s)
- In The Presentation of Self in Everyday Life (1956), one of sociologist Erving Goffman's earliest works, he uses the imagery of the theater as an analogy to everyday life in order to portray the importance of human interaction in the production of self-identity and self-design. Ideas found in the book follow the symbolic interactionist tradition in general—that all reality is socially constructed.
