Klappentext zu „Narratives of the Self “
This book explores the many interdependencies and crossovers between living and writing, or, in more specific terms, between writers' lives on the one hand and their literary output on the other. Thematically divided into four major parts, the book focuses on different literary concerns and discusses literary works from the 17th century to the present day. The first part approaches the issue of autobiography and biography, the second part takes a close look at travel writing, while the third discusses various lives in fiction and the fourth deals with confessional writing.
