Description

While most philosophical writing is impersonal and argumentative, many significant philosophers have used accounts of their own lives to express their ideas. This Routledge publication fills a specific gap in the market by focusing on autobiography as a legitimate philosophical tool. This collection examines several autobiographies in relation to the broader work of their authors. It explores whether there are specific philosophical tasks that are best suited for life accounts rather than standard argumentative forms. Unlike typical impersonal discussions, these texts are deeply personal and largely narrative in nature. This book provides a unique perspective for students and scholars looking to understand how self-presentation functions within the history of philosophy.

Key Features

Explores the relationship between personal life accounts and broader philosophical work.

Addresses the gap in existing literature regarding autobiography as a philosophical method.

Analyzes how narrative forms can serve specific philosophical tasks.

Provides a study of deeply personal texts compared to standard impersonal arguments.

Part of the Routledge Advances in the History of Philosophy series.
