From his first book, <em>The Presentation of Self In Everyday Life</em> (1956), to his last, <em>Forms of Talk</em> (1981), his publications were eagerly awaited and his ideas widely discussed. In 1982 when he died at the age of 60, the response was that a figure of outstanding importance had left the stage of modern sociology. In this powerful study, Tom Burns provides a meticulous and incomparable examination of Erving Goffmans work. Burns arranges Goffmans writings into a series of themes such as Social Order, Acting Out, normalisation, abnormalisation, grading and discrimination and realms of being. This is a useful device because it brings out the richness and diversity of Goffmans preoccupations. This richness and diversity is often lost in secondary accounts which insist on labelling Goffman as a micro-sociologist or symbolic interactionist. In a painstaking and accurate discussion Burns shows the meaning and application of Goffmans key concepts. He also guides the reader in the direct influences upon Goffmans thought. He shows more clearly than anyone else how Goffman was influenced by Durkheim, Simmel, the Chicago School, animal ethology and linguistic philosophy. The book ends with a crisp and incisive critical assessment of Goffmans sociology.</p>...2350888Erving Goffman12711271https://www.gandhi.com.mx/erving-goffman-9781134921379/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/3219140/a09e8c49-ceea-4f61-bd7e-db969c966188.jpg?v=638385048276200000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20029781134921379_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9781134921379_<p>Few sociologists have commanded a larger readership than Erving Goffman.
