Abstract:

The different contributions included in this volume deal with aspects of
biographical writing and other similar genres (semblances, portraits, etc.).
These articles analyze theoretical and generic questions as well as some of
the most relevant examples of the genre – with a focus on those written in
Catalan. In addition, some of the articles focus on the relationship between
biography and national images (nation-building) from a sociocultural
standpoint.

The Research Group on Contemporary Literature from the Universitat d’Alacant
has gathered contributions from several specialists in numerous fields and has
selected a group of relevant works for analysis. In addition to studies on
authors such as André Maurois and Lytton Strachey, contributions deal with
figures such as Josep Pla, Domènec Guansé, Josep Maria Espinàs and Agustí
Pons. Finally, some contributions pay attention to the biographical genre in
the audiovisual arts.

The volume contains contributions in Spanish, English, and Catalan.
