Autobiographie Zwischen Text Und Quelle: Geschichts- Und Literaturwissenschaft Im Gesprach I

In dealing with autobiographies, historians and literary critics are all too often working back to back. This volume aims at changing that by initiating a dialogue about the phenomenon of autobiography between the disciplines. The contributions to this volume elaborate on how historians can profit from the approaches to autobiography taken by literary critics. At the same time, literary critics can learn about the scholarly interest historians have in autobiographies.
