      Historians who study European

    

       women of the Renaissance try to mea-

    

       sure “independence,” “options,” and

    

Line       other indicators of the degree to which

    

                (5)       the expression of women’s individuality

    

was either permitted or suppressed.

    

Influenced by Western individualism,

    

these historians define a peculiar form

    

of personhood:  an innately bounded

    

                (10)      unit, autonomous and standing apart

    

from both nature and society.  An

    

anthropologist, however, would contend

    

that a person can be conceived in ways

    

other than as an “individual.”  In many

    

                (15)      societies a person’s identity is not

    

intrinsically unique and self-contained

    

but instead is defined within a complex

    

web of social relationships.

    

      In her study of the fifteenth-century

    

                (20)      Florentine widow Alessandra Strozzi, a

    

historian who specializes in European

    

women of the Renaissance attributes

    

individual intention and authorship of

    

       actions to her subject.  This historian

    

                (25)      assumes that Alessandra had goals

    

and interests different from those of her

    

sons, yet much of the historian’s own

    

research reveals that Alessandra

    

acted primarily as a champion of her

    

                (30)      sons’ interests, taking their goals as

    

her own.  Thus Alessandra conforms

    

more closely to the anthropologist’s

    

       notion that personal motivation is

    

embedded in a social context.  Indeed,

    

                (35)      one could argue that Alessandra did

    

       not distinguish her personhood from

    

that of her sons.  In Renaissance

    

Europe the boundaries of the con-

    

ceptual self were not always firm

    

                (40)      and closed and did not necessarily

    

coincide with the boundaries of

    

the bodily self.
