Authors | Liegise, L. |
Abstract | Multiplicity or the multiple self can be understood as an abstract idea or an empirical phenomenon. As such, it can be conceptualized as a psychological concept, a philosophical idea, or a social phenomenon. Broadly speaking, it is understood within a spectrum, from pathological to normal, sometimes even celebratory. While it is considered a modern phenomenon and a normal part of contemporary societies, it is also associated with instability and uncertainty. As a consequence, integration or prioritising certain selves is often offered as a way of coping with multiplicity. This thesis argues that there is another way to understand and engage with the multiple self – through the notion of vocation or calling. |
