| Summary |
"In this preface, Ellis describes his motives for and methods of writing his autobiography. Ellis had started with the idea that, of all forms prose outside the limits of imaginative art, there is no form so precious in its nature and so permanent in its value as autobiography, and he models his work on influential autobiographies. He provides an apology for the selection of his narrative, particularly with respect to the the importance of spiritual biography and the use of events from his inner and outer life and his discussion of his wife's life. He also argues that the autobiography was written to help others gain a picture, not just of his life, but of life itself"--Preface. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2006 APA, all rights reserved) |
