Quests of the Human Spirit (VIII): The Quest for Identity, 1962 Apr 1
Thurman, Howard, 1900-1981
Possessing a name provides a sense of being situated in the world. It is how the person marks one’s claim against society, Thurman notes. Identity in this regard requires the person to have a sense of one’s own body and idiom. Distinctive character underlies the capacity to probe the social world wherein one exists so that who one is becomes more articulate and more integrated within the whole.
