      LANGUAGE, WRITING AND SELF

      QUINE AND THE ABSENCE OF SELF and SARTRE AND THE PRESENCE OF SELF

      The inquiry explores the notion that all writing inherently reflects the author's self, framing the question of how self-discourse is achievable. Rooted in the philosophies of Wittgenstein, Sartre, Foucault, and Nietzsche, it argues that writing serves as a means of self-construction. Contrary to Poststructuralist and Postmodernist views that downplay the self, the work asserts that the authorial identity emerges through writing, with interconnections among author, text, and world evident in stylistic choices.
