Literary Lives

Biography and the Search for Understanding

Edición de la obra Literary Lives

"David Ellis meditates on the nature of biography and the way biographers habitually explain their subjects' lives by reference to psychology, ancestry, childhood experience, social relations, the body or illness. The aim of the book is to uncover the principles which biographers adopt in their efforts to make sense of others' lives whilst at the same time ensuring that their own narratives remain coherent."--Jacket.
