Controlling Time and Shaping the Self
This book explores new questions and approaches to the rise of autobiographical writing since the early modern period. What motivated more and more men and women to write records of their private life? How could private writing grow into a bestselling genre?

This volume features new views of the complex field of historical autobiography studies, and is the first to put the genre in a global perspective.
