selfconsciousness

n. (alternative form of self-consciousness English)

Usage examples of "selfconsciousness".

Most of our fiction, in its extreme analysis, introspection and selfconsciousness, in its devotion to details, in its disregard of the ideal, in its selection as well as in its treatment of nature, is simply of a piece with a good deal else that passes for genuine art. Much of it is admirable in workmanship, and exhibits a cleverness in details and a subtlety in the observation of traits which many great novels lack.

Philosophically speaking, I think self-narcotization and selfalcoholization are rather ignoble substitutes for undisturbed selfconsciousness and unfettered self-control.
