Abstract:

The article presents an analysis of Freud’s early biography written by Isidor Isaak Sadger, one of his earliest students. The author argues that Sigmund Freud. Persönliche Erinnerungen bonds together different literary genres such as biography, autobiography and pathography, thus allowing for studying the impact of life-writing literature on psychoanalysis. The first part of the article is devoted to the relation between introspection, auto-analysis and everyday writing practices of Freud and his students. In the second part, the author presents unknown facts from Sadger’s history in the psych

Abstract:

The important early Jesuit Pedro de Ribadeneyra (1526-1611) has the distinction of having been a biographer of men, a biographer of women, an autobiographer, and the subject of biography. As such he and his texts seem particularly apt subjects for study given the current interest by scholars in a number of disciplines in the various forms of “life-writing“ produced so abundantly in the early modern period. In this essay I briefly examine Ribadeneyra's most famous biography, that of his mentor Ignatius Loyola, as well as two little-known and virtually unstudied texts: his Life of the pious layw

The publication presents the biography and autobiographical motives of the lyrics of the Ukrainian writer Lyudmyla Ovdienko. The purpose of the article is to present a biography and analysis of the poetic heritage of a fellow artist in the autobiographical aspect. We came to the conclusion that Lyudmila Ovdienko’s lyrical cycle is not only a speciﬁc type of context, but also a special form of creativity, a type of integrity that diﬀers from the usual collection of poems and is a sequence of texts formed by the author. We are convinced that motives-images are signiﬁcant for the poet’s aut

Abstract:

Freud has a dual attitude to the biographical genre. When he places himself in the position of psychoanalyst/biographer of others, he enthusiastically speaks of lands to be conquered for psychoanalysis. His works, as well as his correspondence, show that he continued to devote himself to investigations which resulted in interpretations of a number of personalities, the most detailed of which regarded Leonardo da Vinci, Goethe, Dostoyevsky, President Wilson and Moses.

From the start, biography played a vibrant and significant part in the growth of women's history, especially American women's history, as a well-respected and popular field within the historical profession. The insistence of feminist biographers that the personal is political, and that attention must be paid to the daily lives of their subjects as well as to their more public achievements, continues to ripple through the field of biography as a whole.

On the first of May 1673 Leonora Christina (1621-98), daughter of King Christian IV and his morganatic second wife Kirsten Munk, finished her so called French autobiography (preserved in her own hand in The Royal Library in Copenhagen and issued in a new critical edition in 2021). The text is addressed to some »Monsieur« and gives a charming and rather smug account of her turbulent life as viewed from the prison cell in Copenhagen where she had been locked up since 1663. Traditionally the anonymous addressee has been identified as the scholar Otto Sperling the younger (1634-1715) who is suppos

Abstract:

Over the past fourteen centuries, Gregory of Nazianzus (ca. 330–390 C.E.) has been the subject of more than a dozen biographical narratives and monographs, beginning with the late antique hagiography of Gregory the Presbyter and concluding with the modern biography by John McGuckin. This is likely the result of Gregory's vast autobiographical corpus, which has provided scholars with a chronological narrative and character perspective from which to start their own secondary narratives. By examining this tradition of biography, I argue that two trends remain regularly operative. First, each biog

WHERE IS “Victorian autobiography” in the late 1990s? Everywhere and nowhere.

This diffusion is in many ways a fruitful development, although it raises the question of whether “Victorian autobiography” is still a meaningful category to use in describing critical work.

Any meaningful assessment of biography and autobiography writing among the Swahili as a historical source needs to take at least three factors into consideration.

The role of colonialism, and the introduction of the Western “mode” of biography and autobiography writing, forms the third factor. The aim of the paper is to survey these factors, not chronologi

Abstract:

When the reader wants to classify what reads, several questions arise in the mind in terms of looking at the autobiography as a history or a literary text. And Whether it is a history or a literary text, or both, does it has to be committed to honesty, and its constraints in terms of ethics and religion? These questions create a hypothesis: is the biography has to include all the qualifications that eligible it to be a literary and historical text, and the reader might search in it for what could be searched in literary texts such as language use, imagination, and other rhetorical procedures.

Abstract Originally published in Common Knowledge 11, no. 2 (Fall 2005), this essay is reprinted in 2022 as the prelude to the first installment of a project titled “Antipolitics” and dedicated to the author's memory. “To really know” what a writer “is like,” Konrád writes here, “he would have to look back on his biography from after death” — and in this piece he hauntingly does so. Explaining that he composed his first autobiography upon being expelled from university in Hungary after Stalin's death in 1953, he defines the process as “the main event in the ritual of political detention.” In a

Abstract Within German Jewish contemporary literature’s engagement with the Shoah and Second World War, a new approach has gained traction: auto/biography. This article examines characteristics of recent German Jewish auto/biographical family narratives and discusses newer genre poetics of auto/biography. If every biography is also autobiography, these contemporary auto/biographical family narratives showcase the other side of that poetological coin: preoccupied with self-definition and self-assurance, these first-person narrators seek to position themselves in the generational chain of their

Abstract:

If the biography is a narrative type with an unimaginable reference basis, the feminist autobiography is a narrative type with a reference basis, in which the author is a woman who admits and does not imagine, as if it were unnecessary to differentiate it from the masculine autobiography, or because the latter is the dominant and the more productive, or because the human being is a terrestrial being, that has no gender. The author can be a man or a woman. However, the work remains described as a non-specialized autobiography. It is not difficult to differentiate between a male autobiography an

Abstract:

With some exaggeration, one could claim that these three biographies, despite their disparate subjects—a seventeenth-century aristocratic lady of the Mughal court, an eighteenth-century French adventurer, and a twentieth-century Muslim intellectual and political figure—all tell the same story. In each case, a figure is born (as it happens, outside the Indian subcontinent) in relatively humble circumstances and emerges as a singular figure in some combination of the political, economic, intellectual life of the day. Each account proceeds chronologically, with the life presented as an unfolding,
