Sumario: | HauptbeschreibungThe essays by American, Asian, Australian and European critics collected here demonstrate the opening up of auto/biography studies to the border-crossing implied by the concept of mediation: processes of social and cultural translation are examined in various forms - from photographic self-representation to oral histories - and practices, from media coverage through marketing of written lives to performing the self.
