Abstract:
Life Writing scholars like Hannah Arendt, Adriana Cavarero and Judith Butler have agreed to the fact that at the heart of any self-narration, is the biographical desire to get ‘exteriority’ or in other words, to hear one’s story being told by another. This position of the narrator, then, is interesting keeping in view the fact that s/he is the object of narration as well. Hence the ‘publicness’ of the personal space is inherent from the very beginning of an autobiographical act. As in the words of Udaya Kumar, “instead of seeing the autobiographical act as a

Abstract:
Recent empirical work indicates that reduced autobiographical memory specificity can act as an avoidant processing style. By truncating the memory search before specific elements of traumatic memories are accessed, one can ward off the affective impact of negative reminiscences. This avoidant processing style can be viewed as an instance of what Erdelyi describes as the “subtractive” class of repressive processes.

Abstract:
Abstract This essay intends to shed light on the motivation behind Ruth Klüger’s autobiographical project by examining the relationship between trauma, memory and the act of writing. Exploring the catalyst for writing reveals that Klüger’s autobiographical texts have a dual function: they serve as a public call for dialogue, as well as a kind of therapy allowing her to work through the traumas of her past. I demonstrate that for this reason, it is crucial to take into consideration not just the well-known weiter leben: Eine Jugend (1992), but also its revised English self-translation Still Ali

Abstract:
This study is an investigation of the autobiographical narratives of two authors, the Pole Marek Hlasko, and the American Henry Miller. Though they lived in different times and places Miller and Hlasko, share some remarkable features with respect to temperament, philosophies of writing, and modes of narrative output. In the chapters that follow I will examine both the biographical and the textual points of contact between these two men, concentrating on the problem of self-inscription in the autobiographical novels, and on the games played with identity that both men engaged in throughout thei

Taking as its starting point the definition of autobiography proposed by Philippe Lejeune in his essay 'The Autobiographical Contract', this study uses performance-based research to instigate a number of theoretical propositions which aim to test the boundaries of what is understood as autobiography.

In the absence of specific works on the subject, the self-portrait video emerges as an intellectual challenge, as it seems to possess excellent elusive and resistant qualities for the delimitation of conclusive definitions which

Abstract:
When humans use the mental states (e.g., beliefs, intentions) and the emotional states of others to predict or explain another person�s behaviour, they have demonstrated their theory of mind understanding. Theory of mind is "one of the quintessential abilities that makes us human" (Baron-Cohen, 2000, p. 3). Emotion understanding has been considered by some to be an aspect of theory of mind understanding. There are several theories proposed to explain the development of theory of mind, from changes in representational abilities (Perner, 1991), to having an innate domain specific module (Fodor,

Abstract:
Self-focused information processing has become a central aspect of cognitive explanations of social anxiety disorder. Indeed, Clark and Wells (1995) theorized that the key feature of the disorder is the processing of the self as a social object. It is proposed that when socially anxious individuals enter feared situations, they shift their attention to a detailed monitoring of themselves. Such self-focused attention triggers recollections of negative experiences from the past and directs attention towards signs of threat. This interferes with the processing of the situation and leads to misint

Abstract:
In recent years a number of important studies have emerged that focus on the lives of the human agents who operated in the early-modern book trade. This marks a scholarly shift away from the technologies of book production towards the figures who operated, profited from, and helped to shape, print technologies and their related products. In this critical movement the identities of printers, publishers, and booksellers have come to matter, both in terms of our understanding of what constitutes ‘print culture,’ and in efforts to narrativise the history of the book.

More specifically, the chapter reports on a Multiliteracies-inspired college-level course entitled “Narrating the Multilingual Self” during which L2 learners of French were guided to tell their “multilingual life story” (Edwards, 2019).

Translation is not merely a simple neutral linguistic act; rather it is conceived as a cultural act with its own equations of power and dominance, centre and margin. Writing happens in a specific linguistic, cultural and political context and the process of translating texts from one cultural system into another is not at all a neutral, innocent, transparent activity. It is rather a political activity. The very act of translation and the politics behind it deserves more attention.
