The project combines the most recent reflections on autobiographical studies and on the state of art of biographical studies with case studies of auto/biography and related sub-genres, all of them in their time and space specificity and written by authors belonging to the English and American canon, as well as to an Anglophone colonial and postcolonial canon still in progress.
