The Biographical Turn showcases the latest research through which the field of biography is being explored. Chapters cover subjects such as gender, religion, race and microhistory, presenting biography as as a research methodology suited not only for historians but also for explorations in areas including literature studies, sociology, economics and politics.
International in scope,this book emphasizes that the individual can have a lasting impact on the past and that lives that are now forgotten can be as important for the historical narrative as the biographies of kings and presidents. It is a valuable resource for all students of biography, history and historical theory.
