	Shades of Deeper Meaning: On Writing Autobiography (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Autobiography’s origin as narrative that arises from a dialogue with the self and about the self in relation to others and a particular cultural landscape distinguishes autobiography and makes it especially appropriate for teaching advanced writing students about the subtle features inherent in the complex act of writing as social discourse.
		And because autobiography depends on the “inner conversations” with the self and “internalized others” in the process of social construction, writing autobiography can become a means to self-knowledge that serves as a valuable adjunct to academic writing.
		Creating a voice of one’s own from voices one has known in autobiography and thereby tracing one’s presence in “its narrative form” means that we must identify and grapple with the many relationships that exist between the self and others, and how others, in turn, affect the development of the emerging self.

		Biographies, as well as autobiographies, provide insights into a creator's work; and, where both are available, it could be informative to compare the two.
		Autobiography is not the story of a life; it is the recreation or the discovery of one.
		Often, of course, autobiography is merely a collection of well-rehearsed anecdotes; but, intelligently written, it is the revelation, to the reader and the writer, of the writer's conception of the life he or she has lived.

		It's heavy on guitars and light on dance beats, although those are bubbling under the layers and layers of six-strings, and Ashlee has adopted a growl that may come out closer to a mousey squeak, but the attitude is appreciated all the same.
		Not only is she trying hard -- and, in the case of "Lala," trying way too hard to be sexy -- but she's succeeding in creating an album that feels like a bubblegum version of Pink's M!ssundaztood, even if it's not quite as catchy.

	Leonard Woolf: An Autobiography - book review
		He was a political activist and one of the founders of the League of Nations (which became the United Nations); he was a novelist and a journalist; and throughout the whole of his adult life he was a professional publisher, in charge of the very successful Hogarth Press, which he founded.
		The first volume of his autobiography deals with his childhood in a prosperous upper middle-class Jewish family and his early memories of growing up in late Victorian London, then his intellectual flowering when he went to Cambridge.
		Leonard Woolf went up in my estimation as a result of reading this memoir, and I am looking forward now to both his collected leters, and in particular to the letters he exchanged on almost a daily basis with his lover Trekkie Parsons.
