This landmark work by one of the twentieth century's most influential sociologists argues that our behaviour in social situations is defined by how we wish to be perceived - resulting in displays startlingly similar to those of actors in a theatrical performance. From the houses and clothes that we use as 'fixed props' to the 'backstage' of the solitude in which our personas are rehearsed and relaxed, Goffman reveals human character not to be fixed, but fluid and consciously maintained.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n'Never less than brilliant' New Statesman\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780241547991\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePackage Dimensions:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.8 x 5.0 x 0.8 inches\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguages:\u003c\/b\u003e English, German\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Penguin Classics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50130159501616,"sku":"Trans_9780241547991","price":679.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0690\/9968\/4144\/files\/711HvZn6DZL.jpg?v=1757503576","url":"https:\/\/www.retailmaharaj.com\/products\/the-presentation-of-self-in-everyday-life","provider":"Retail Maharaj","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
