About this ebook:
Biografidebatten blusser opp med jevne mellomrom, men har ofte vært begrenset til spørsmålet om "anstendighet" og hva som skal være med/ikke være med i en slik livsskildring. Nå har vi endelig fått en bok om biografien. Og den fokuserer like mye på form som innhold.For biografien er en av våre eldste litterære sjangere. Opprinnelig var det de mektige menn og kulturens fanebærere som ble panegyrisk portrettert. De skulle være eksempler til etterfølgelse. Fra 1700-tallet av er diktere blant de hyppigst biograferte. Egeland gir oss en utførlig innføring i biografiens historie, men også i dens teori og praksis. Hun viser med en rekke eksempler fra nyere norske biografier så vel som skildringer av Henrik Wergeland og amerikanske Sylvia Plath, hvordan den litterære tradisjonen fungerer som et retorisk klister.Å framstille diktere som melankolske unntaksmennesker og forfulgte outsidere er mer regel enn unntak i biografier - de biograferte framstår med andre ord ikke som særlig originale når vi sammenlikner framstillingene av dem. Det sies at James Joyce nærmest følte seg tvunget til å konstruere et gåtefullt vesen. Aksel Sandemose er en annen dikter som arbeidet iherdig med sin egen mytologisering. Og hvordan skal biografen forholde seg til det?I "Hvem bestemmer over livet?" stilles det spørsmål ved biografenes rolle. Hvordan velger og presenterer de fakta? Hvilke virkemidler benyttes for å formidle en bestemt personoppfatning? Er biografen ute i et annet ærend enn å skrive et liv? Biografidebatten vil antakelig leve så lenge vi har biografier. Denne boka om biografien er et kjærkomment bidrag til nivåheving av debatten!Marianne Egeland (f. 1953) er magister i litteraturvitenskap. I 1997 kom hennes bok "Sylvia Plath" ut i Gyldendals Ariadne-serie.
