In honor of the 200th anniversary of P. Kulish's birth, the article offers a multi-level comparison of autobiographies of two prominent Ukrainian writers of the 19th century. In the categories and concepts of modern literary criticism, the hypothesis of literary influence of T. Shevchenko on P. Kulish's perception of artistic autobiography genre is checked and confirmed. For this purpose, three texts are compared: an autograph of "Autobiography" by T. Shevchenko, deeply edited by P. Kulish for printing in "People's Reading" journal, a version of T.

In universities, research on Autobiography has not only clarified the general requirements of this genre but also made it much easier to determine the boundaries and restrictions of this sort. Initial research in universities was limited to the intellectual and technical examination of Autobiographies.

Marmaduke Pickthall, a half-forgotten British novelist of the early twentieth century, has come back to the spotlight over the past few years.

Among fictitious autobiographies as well as among historical novels, Robert Nye’s Falstaff (1976) is a special case in that it is not the autobiography of a historical personage, but of a dramatic character —who happens to be one of the most famous in Shakespeare, indeed in world drama, to be dictated by Falstaff to various amanuenses. After briefly discussing the sub-genre of fictitious autobiography, this paper will analyze the varied use of intertextuality, the tensions fabricated between the autobiographer and his helpers, and the critical thoughts and tendencies which Nye absorbed in prep

For instance, if epitaphs and elegies are at least partially meant to usher the dead into heaven and praise the dead’s suitability for a Christian afterlife, what happens when the subject is a dog denied a soul by Christianity? These are the kinds of questions I address. In addition to epitaphs and elegies, I consider detective and sensation fiction as well as dog autobiographies—works of ficti

AbstractThe article focuses on literary lists the items of which demonstrate the practice of writing, that is, those which evoke a “writing-scene” (R. Campe). These poetological lists consolidate the self-reflexive potential of literary texts, gather elements of narration in list form, stage the conditions for a non-linear narrative in the list or even thematize the “genea-logic” of narrative and writing. Under consideration are four lists (all in the second half of the twentieth century) from the most disparate of genres: lyric poetry (Inger Christensen), the manifesto (Jack Kerouac), the novel (Italo Calvino), and the autobiography (Roland Barthes). Each of these lists reflects not only the process of writing and poetics but also genre specificity.

Abstract:
Intertwining biographical method and autobiography. Massimo Quaini had shown much interest in the ‘egogeography’ genre, practiced by different French geographers. The work traces back, on the basis of published and unpublished writings, some significant aspect of the intellectual personality of the Italian geographer. In particular, passages are presented in which he recalls his scientific and professional training and some letters that account for the highly critical positioning towards academic power, against the management of competitions based on personal relationships rather than on scientific merits (to the detriment of the discipline itself). Some original documents testify the interest in history and philosophy and the acceptance of historical materialism that has shaped his youth work and, more generally, founded his interpretation of geographical reality.

Abstract:
AbstractThis chapter explores the advantages of understanding the autofictional as a flexible matrix with scalable parameters. It puts forward five theses: (1) The fact that so many scholars have tried to work with the term “autofiction” indicates an obvious need for the “autofictional” to grasp what is vibrant between life and text. (2) The autofictional is a scalable and latent dimension in all autobiographical writing. Therefore, autofiction is not a separate genre in addition to autobiography and the novel. (3) Imagination and the use of the supernatural may support autobiographical reference. (4) Autofiction produces real-life effects. (5) Autofiction oscillates between fictionality and factuality. Although it brings one or other aspect to the foreground, all of them persist and continue to, more or less, resonate together.

Abstract:
Abstract Autobiography is a precarious genre as it consists in principle of works by and about an individual and yet an autobiography could only be ‘generic’ if the life and the text shared numerous experiences and dynamics with those of others. Many autobiographies entail a complicated dialectic of individual and general, including the possibility of readers identifying with the authors and their lives. This chapter addresses prominent (even some bestselling) autobiographies by Romantic writers at a time when the genre or mode flourished: Jean-Jacques Rousseau, Oladuah Equiano, William Wordsworth, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, and Harriette Wilson. Attention is paid to the discursive shaping of lives that risk having no particular shape, focusing on conversion and moments forcing self-reflection (such as theft in the era of childhood). The projects of these autobiographies are fraught with difficulties of articulation, given the vagaries of memory, the force of narcissism, and the uncertainties of self-reflection.

The most representative works of that period are Guo Moruo’s My Childhood (1928) and Hu Shi’s Self-narration at Forty (1933).
