Diary notes of a visit to Walt Whitman and some of his friends, in 1890: with a series of original photographs
Our offering includes memoirs, or collections of memories that individuals have written about moments or events, both public or private, that took place in their lives. While the assertions made in these works are generally taken to be factual, the biases or perspectives of the authors are often present. Historically, memoirs have been defined as a subcategory of biography or autobiography, however the genre is differentiated in form, since it presents a narrower focus. While a biography or autobiography tells the story "of a life", a memoir generally tells the story "from a life", tending to emphasize touchstone events and turning points in the author's life experience. The authors are referred to as memoirists or memorialists.
Also in this BookCollections of Essays are anthologies that have been compiled in order to demonstrate the works of a number of essayists. The list of essayists who have been active throughout the world and throughout time, is extraordinary.
And in this BookOur titles cover authors from a wide range of literary genres, including novelists, playwrights, poets, historians, essayists, editors, biographers, screenwriters, satirists, librettists, lyricists, journalists, columnists, fiction and non-fiction writers, essayists, translators, and critics.
