| dc.description.abstract | This thesis explores Daniel Defoe's treatment of the concept of
personal identity as a literary construction and as a social fiction. An
active contributor to the burgeoning print market of early eighteenthcentury
England, Defoe capitalizes on popular taste but he also alerts
readers to issues of textual credibility. His provocative destabilization of
any fixed definition or image of a personal identity is at the heart of the
thesis. | |
