dcterms.abstractLooking for Me is a memoir written in my seventy-fifth year and spanning my entire life starting with my earliest recollections. It is not an autobiography in the sense that it is not intended as a comprehensive narration of my existence but is rather a collection of remembered episodes told in more or less chronological order and chosen for the clues they may hold to my identity. This exploration is motivated by several existential questions. At the highest level of abstraction, it seeks to approach an understanding of personal responsibility for being who one is: what part of one's identity is the product of nature, of personal inheritance, of early experience, and what part is the result of conscious choice? On a subjective level, I am seeking to understand the influences of the cultures in which I have lived and been educated: Latin American, European and American. In sum, who am I to myself and how do I hope to be understood by others. I write this in full knowledge that the answers to my questions are by needs imperfect and subject to the interpretation of my readers.
