Historians who study Europeanwomen of the Renaissance try to measure independence,” “options,” and otherindicators of the degree to which the expression of women’s individuality waseither permitted or suppressed. Influenced by Western individualism, thesehistorians define a peculiar form of personhood: an innately bounded unit, autonomous andstanding apart from both nature and society. An anthropologist, however, would contend that a person can be conceivedin ways other than as an “individual.” In many societies a person’s identity is not intrinsically unique andself-contained but instead is defined within a complex web of socialrelationships. In her study of thefifteenth-century Florentine widow Alessandra Strozzi, a historian whospecializes in European women of the Renaissance attributes individualintention and authorship of actions to her subject. This historian assumes that Alessandra hadgoals and interests different from those of her sons, yet much of thehistorian’s own research reveals that Alessandra acted primarily as a championof her sons’ interests, taking their goalsas her own. Thus Alessandra conformsmore closely to the anthropologist’s notion that personal motivation isembedded in a social context. Indeed,one could argue that Alessandra did not distinguish her personhood from that ofher sons. In Renaissance Europe theboundaries of the conceptual self were not always firm and closed and did notnecessarily coincide with the boundaries of the bodily self.
