Who are you?

consultchrisann — 2021-07-19 09:33:28 UTC

Identity (the Self) is an intersection of “what” and “who.” The fact we inhabit a unique, distinct, incrementally changing body, mostly answers the “what” part of the question. We can appreciate this when looking at photos of ourselves at successive stages of life.

The “who” part—our memories, dispositions, aspirations, and all the revisable, private and public, autobiographical stories we construct about ourselves—is more difficult to pin down. It seems that we construe who we are. Our waking experience is anticipatory. We distill fragments of past memories and imagine what's next?

This example was famously supplied as a philosophical thought experiment by Thomas Hobbes, the British philosopher of the English civil war, into which he was born (he said that he was born twins with fear), but he drew the example from Plutarch, a Roman writer, and, of course, Theseus comes from Greek mythology.
