This paper focuses on academic identity and the impact of individual and environmental factors on its development. Drawing on a variety of theoretical perspectives, originally put forward in e.g., Gee (2012), Halliday (1978), Halliday & Hasan (1989), Hall (1995), Harré & van Langenhove (1999) and Hyland (2012a, b), Lehman’s (2014a), framework for an analysis of authorial self-representation along the axis of individual–collective is presented. It is shown, however, that this basic continuum entails a number of related aspects, which are synthesized in a multi-dimensional model of academic identity, with particular reference to the formation of collective (see Lehman 2014a). To support the theoretical facet of the proposed model, the practical aspects of discipline-specific English courses at Italian tertiary level are discussed to show how disciplinary self develops in this context of constrained access to possibilities for self-representation.
