The purpose of the volume—as with the other volumes published in the Anthem Press “Companion to Sociology” series—is to provide a comprehensive overview of Erving Goffman’s continued appeal and relevance within the field of sociology and related social science disciplines. The book engages with some of the major themes and continuing concerns of Goffman’s sociology. The chapters included in the volume deal with some important aspects of Goffman’s life and work that made him into the enigma that he was.
