- Authors
Heinze, Carsten
- Abstract
The article discusses sociological methods and approaches to the genre of autobiography. It reflects on the nature of autobiographical memory and autobiographical writing, addressing various historical, literary, and media theories on the subject, such as the notion of an autobiographical pact developed by French literary theorist Philippe Lejeune. It also details biographical methods in sociology, particularly the work of the Chicago School. It then develops a socio-phenomenological communication theory of autobiographical memory rooted in the theory of communicative action.
