| | Dear diary revisited |
| | Autobiographers of the early twenty-first century who choose to work with their diaries might turn not to personal archives that have evaded public inspection, as Gibson and Green have, but to entries they have posted online for the world to view. | | | Margo Culley both reinforces and challenges generic conventions when she distinguishes the personal diary or journal from other forms of autobiographical writing. | | | Besides introducing metaphors to counter sexist representations of "the mute compliant female body," as Gever proposes (234), such performances often experimented with a range of autobiographical themes that celebrated the private sphere, a tendency that Tamblyn notes ("Significant," 406). |

| | Tracey Emin - The Rumpled Bed of Autobiography: Extravagant Lives, Extravagant Questions. |
| | Rumpled, unmade, at this contemporary moment the bed is a generative metaphor for approaching contemporary experiments in self-presentation that mix a grab-bag of autobiographical modes, tropes, and histories. | | | Claiming to tell a true story in a genre about whose maneuvers he is acutely, endlessly self-conscious, he invites readers to confront the undecidability of autobiographical acts. | | | Suggesting that readers skip a hundred pages on Dave and his twenty-something friends, the Preface notes, "those lives are very difficult to make interesting, even when they seemed interesting to those living them at the time" (vii). |

| | Autobiography doesn't necessarily mean sincerity, because recall and transcription of autobiographical details is, in itself, problematic and always fraught with how we imagine our own lives were lived. | | | I've not read the piece in question, and know nothing of ohio, but I've always felt a little betrayed when an author obviously pulls huge tracts of material out of his or her own life. | | | I have written stories about characters and places that are completely imagined, and I have written stories that are pretty close to the bone of my own life. |

| | Excerpt, Rugg, Picturing Ourselves |
| | Another reaction entirely governs the second two authors of this study, and for that reason the book falls into two halves, the first concerned with the end of the nineteenth century, and the second with the developments that come to define the twentieth century: war and the rise and fall of totalitarianism. | | | Auden's lines refer to the reading of Yeats's poetry, but he also identifies Yeats with Yeats's words--not just his poetry, but "he" is scattered among a hundred cities--and in the case of autobiographical writing, the identification between writer and text is underscored, explicit. | | | This by no means establishes that every autobiography is a "true" account, but the aura of authenticity nevertheless surrounds the autobiographer's tale. |

| | Autobiographical Reflections, by Eric Voegelin |
| | "We are indeed fortunate that one of the twentieth century's authentic titans in philosophy and history thought to set down his autobiographical reflections before his passing. | | | Autobiographical Reflections is a window into the mind of a man whose reassessment of the nature of history and thought has overturned traditional approaches to, and appraisals of, the Western intellectual tradition. | | | Here we encounter the motivations for Voegelin's work, the stages in the development of his unique philosophy of consciousness, his key intellectual breakthroughs, his theory of history, and his diagnosis of the political ills of the modern age. |
