Goffman was the 73rd president of the American Sociological Association. His best-known contribution to social theory is his study of symbolic interaction. This took the form of dramaturgical analysisbeginning with his book, The Presentation of Self in Ercing Life. His major areas of study included the sociology of everyday lifesocial interactionthe social construction of yeori, social organization framing of experience, and particular elements of social life such as total institutions and stigmas.
From Goffman attended St.
John’s Technical High School in Winnipegwhere his family had moved that year. In he enrolled at the University of Manitobamajoring in chemistry. Also during this time, he met the renowned North American sociologist, Dennis Wrong. Hart and Ray Birdwhistellgraduating in with a BA in sociology and anthropology.
In Goffman married Angelica Choate; intheir teoru Thomas was born. Angelica suffered from mental illness and died darmaturgi suicide in At one point, in pursuit of his hobbies and ethnographic studies, he became a pit boss goffmzn a Las Vegas casino. In Goffman married sociolinguist Gillian Sankoff. The following year, their daughter Alice was born.
In Goffman became a faculty member in the sociology department at the University of California, Berkeleyfirst as a visiting professor, then from as a full professor. Hughes was the “most influential of his teachers”, according to Tom Burns. Though Goffman is often associated with the symbolic interaction school of sociological thought, he did not dramahurgi himself as a representative of it, and ervimg Fine and Manning conclude that he “does not easily fit within a specific school of sociological thought”.
Goffman made substantial advances voffman the study of face-to-face interactionelaborated the ” dramaturgical approach ” to human interactionand developed numerous concepts that have had a massive influence, particularly in the field of the micro-sociology of everyday life.
Impression Management is defined as when an individual attempts to present an acceptable image to those around him or her verbally or nonverbally Goffman does break from his connection with George Herbert Mead and Herbert Blumer in that while he does not reject the way in which individuals perceive themselves, he was more interested in the actual physical proximity or the “interaction order” that molds the self Individuals present images of themselves based on how society thinks they should act in a particular situation.
This decision on how to act is decided drqmaturgi on the concept of definition of the situation. The definition are ering predetermined and individuals choose how they will act by teorl the proper behavior for the social situation they are in.
Goffman draws from William Thomas for this concept as well. Thomas believed that people are born into a particular social class and so the definitions of the situations that they will encounter have been previously defined for them Despite his influence, according to Fine and Manning there are “remarkably few scholars who are continuing his work”, nor has there been a “Goffman school”; thus, his impact on social dramatuggi has been simultaneously “great and modest”.
Nonetheless, Fine and Manning note gofgman Goffman is “the most influential American sociologist of the twentieth century”. Goffman’s early works consist of his graduate writings of — Goffman’s The Presentation of Self in Everyday Life was published inwith a revised edition in Goffman describes the theatrical performances that occur in face-to-face interactions.
At the same time, the person that the individual is interacting with attempts to form an impression of, and obtain information about, the individual. Society is not homogeneous; we must act differently in different settings. This recognition led Goffman to his dramaturgical analysis.
He saw a connection between the kinds of “acts” that people put on in their daily lives and theatrical performances. In a social interaction, as in a theatrical performance, there is an onstage area where actors individuals appear before the audience; this is where positive self-concepts and desired impressions are offered.
But there is, as well, a backstage — a hidden, private area where individuals can be themselves and drop their societal roles and identities. Goffman is sometimes credited with having in coined the term “total institution”, [42] though Fine and Manning note that he had heard it in lectures by Everett Hughes [7] in reference to any type of institution in which people are treated alike and in which behavior is regulated.
The book is composed of four essays: Some Notes on the Vicissitudes of the Tinkering Trades”. Asylums has been credited with helping catalyze the reform of mental health systems in a number of countries, leading to reductions in the numbers of large mental hospitals and of the individuals locked up in them. In Behavior in Public PlacesGoffman again focuses on everyday public interactions. He draws distinctions between several types of public gatherings “gatherings”, “situations”, “social occasions” and types of audiences acquainted versus unacquainted.
Notes on the Management of Spoiled Identity examines how, to protect their identities when they depart from approved standards of behavior or appearance, people manage impressions of themselves — mainly through concealment.
Stigma pertains to the shame that a person may feel when he or she fails to meet other people’s standards, and to the fear of being discredited — which causes the individual not to reveal his or her shortcomings. Thus, a person with a criminal record may simply withhold that information from fear of being judged by whomever that person happens to encounter. Essays on Face-to-Face Behavior is a collection of six Goffman essays. The first four were originally published in the s, the fifth inand the last was written for the collection.
The first essay, “On Face-work”, discusses the concept of facewhich is the positive self-image that an individual holds when interacting with others. Goffman believes that face “as a sociological construct of interaction, is neither inherent in nor a permanent aspect of the person”.
Inconsistency in how a person projects him or herself in society risks embarrassment and discrediting.
Therefore, people remain guarded, to ensure that they do not show themselves to others in an unfavorable light. Goffman’s book Strategic Interaction is his contribution to game theory. It discusses the compatibility of game theory with the legacy of the Chicago School of sociology and with the perspective of symbolic interactionism.
It is one of his few works that clearly engage with that perspective. Goffman’s view on game theory was shaped by the works of Thomas Schelling. Goffman presents reality as a form of dramatugri, and discusses its rules and the various moves that players can make the “unwitting”, the “naive”, the “covering”, the “uncovering”, and the “counter-uncovering” while trying to get or hide an information.
An Essay on the Organization of Experience is Goffman’s attempt to explain how conceptual frames — ways to organize experience — structure an individual’s perception of society. A frame is a set of concepts and theoretical perspectives that organize experiences and guide the actions of individuals, groups and societies. Frame analysisthen, is the study of the organization of social experience.
To illustrate the concept of the frame, Goffman gives the example of a picture frame: The most basic frames are called primary frameworks. A primary framework takes an teoori experience or an aspect of a scene that would originally be meaningless and makes it meaningful.
One type of primary framework is a natural framework, which identifies situations in the natural world and is completely biophysicalwith no human influences. The other type of framework is a social framework, which explains events and teoori them to humans.
An example of a natural framework is the weather, and an example of a social framework is a meteorologist who predicts the weather. Focusing on the social frameworks, Goffman seeks to “construct a general statement regarding the structure, or form, of experiences individuals have at any moment of their social life”.

Goffman saw this book as his magnum opusbut it was not ervibg popular as his earlier works. In Frame AnalysesErving Goffman ercing a platform for understanding and interpreting the interaction between individuals engaging speech communication.
In the chapter “The Frame Analyses of Talk,” the focus is put on how words are exchanged and what is being said, specifically in informal talk or conversation. The concept of framing is introduced through an exploration of why misunderstandings occur in these basic, everyday conversations.
He argues that they are more errors in verbal framing than anything else. The types of frames Goffman is considering are discussed in previous sections of the book, “fabrications, keyings, frame breaks, misframing, and, of course, frame disputes. And what his listeners are primarily obliged to do is to show some kind of audience appreciation.
This is why often a simple head nod or grunt is accepted as an appropriate response in conversation. Goffman explains that the way a conversation is keyed is critical to understanding the intent behind many utterances in everyday speech.

Key is probably best understood as the tone of the dialogue which can change numerous times during an interaction. Signaling a change in key is one way that framing often takes place, “special brackets will have to be introduced should he want to say something in a relatively serious way: Bauman details that a performance is dependent on it being properly keyed, without this, the display will not be successful.
His work on performance analyses is deeply indepted to what Goffman establishes here in “Frame Analyses. Context is one other element to framing that is essential. An awareness of these social framings is critical, just as is an awareness of the audience. Goffman uses the teorl of conversation being a stage play. The parallels go further, though.
Goffman also claims that a speaker details a drama more often than they provide information. Other similarities include engaging in the suspense the speaker is attempting to create. In both scenarios, you must put aside the knowledge that the performers know the outcome of the event being relayed and, in a sense, play along.
This is integral to his stance as he explains “the argument that much of talk consists of replayings and that these make no sense unless some form of storyteller’s suspense can be maintained shows the close relevance of frame-indeed, the close relevance of dramaturgy-for the organization of talk.
All of these things work in concert govfman provide a foundation of how talk is framed.
In Gender Advertisementshe writes about how gender is represented in the advertising we all engage with in our everyday lives.
He explains relative size, feminine touch, function ranking, the family, the ritualization of subordination, and licensed withdraw.
Relative size means that the women represented in advertisements are generally goffmna shorter or smaller in comparison to men.
Feminine touch is when a woman touches a man or an object in a way that is very loose, and not gripping the object tightly.
Function ranking represents a hierarchy in the images, by way dramarurgi the man is shown in front and largest in front of women and children. The family is typically depicted in a way that gives damaturgi father and a son a close relationship, and the mother and a daughter a close relationship.
The ritualization of subordination is when women are shown in a lower ranking or worth of an image, and they are smaller, underneath, and overall of lesser importance to men.

Finally, licensed withdrawal is when a women is shown as not interested in the camera, or looking off into the distance with head and body cant. Goffman analyzes all of these topics in a very in-depth and drmaaturgi to understand format. With relative size, women are generally shown smaller or lower than men in terms of girth and height. Women are frequently depicted touching persons or objects teoti a ritualistic manner, occasionally just barely touching the object or person.
