Michael Stanislawski
Examines the nature of autobiographical writing by Jews and the ways in which such writings can legitimately be used as sources for Jewish history. These writers' attempts to portray their private and public struggles, anxieties, successes, and failures are expressions of a basic drive for selfhood which is both timeless and time-bound.
