The handbook covers the diverse forms, practices and poetics of traditional auto/biographies in English and American literatures and cultures both in systematic and historical terms. It will give equal space to new developments of life writing in light of the changed constitution of modern and contemporary societies in the transatlantic and transnational Anglophone world.
