The Birth of the Modern Mind: Self, Consciousness, and the Invention of the Sonnet
Oppenheimer, Paul (Professor of Comparative Medieval Literature, and Poet-in-Residence, Professor of Comparative Medieval Literature, and Poet-in-Residence, City College, City University of New York)
This book suggests that the origins of the thought and literature which is termed "modern" can be traced to the 13th-century Italian invention of the sonnet, the first literary form since classical times meant not for performance but for silent reading and introspection.
