The claim I have tried to make is that identities are parts of contexts and make sense only within the contexts of which they are a part. Just as the question of who Elinor Dashwood is makes no sense outside of the context of Sense and Sensibility, the question of who someone is or whether someone is black or white, male or female, Amish or student makes no sense unless we know with regard to what. Moreover, depending upon how I understand the whole of the text of which Elinor Dashwood is a part, I will understand who she is differently. If I place the novel in the context of onanism, I may understand her as an incestuous lover. If I understand her in the context of democracy I may understand her as a model of independence. Likewise, if I understand an ill child in the context of Western medicine, I will understand him or her as a medical patient. If I understand him or her in the context of Christian Science, I will understand him or her as an alienated soul. In concluding this book, I want to expand on two remaining issues.
