The self is notoriously difficult to define but historians make assumptions about it when writing. What are these assumptions and what does the experience of ordinary people tell us about social change? Do not expect clear answers from neuroscience, psychology or psychoanalysis.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n \n —<\/span><\/p>\n \n Lynn Hunt<\/span><\/strong>\u00a0is the Eugen Weber Professor of Modern European History at UCLA.
