autobiographical literature

Autobiographical literature refers to writings in which authors recount their own life experiences. This genre includes memoirs, diaries, and personal essays, allowing individuals to share their personal stories, thoughts, and emotions. Unlike biographies, which are written by someone else about a person, autobiographies are self-reflective and subjective. Authors may explore themes such as identity, struggles, achievements, and relationships, providing readers with insight into their lives. This form of literature often encourages empathy and understanding by presenting unique perspectives and human experiences.
