Life Writing

期刊简介：Life Writing is one of the leading journals in the field of biography and autobiography, and publishes scholarly articles, critically informed creative personal essays, and book reviews. We have a special interest in interdisciplinary approaches, cross-cultural experience, and non-Anglophone contexts, though our themes have ranged widely, such as: illness and disability, philosophy and autobiography, the 'limits' of life writing, South African life narrative, women and ageing, and more. We make sure that work entrusted to us receives expert and sensitive reviewing, and prioritise handling it with speed and efficiency. A list of books that have resulted from Life Writing themed editions can be found at: www.routledge.com/Life-Writing/book-series/LFWR Academic Articles: If you have a general query or would like to suggest a theme for a special edition, please contact the editor, Dr Maureen Perkins, at m.perkins@outlook.com.au Essays: Essays differ from academic articles in that a high level of analysis and referencing is less important, but the reflexive 'I' should filter the subject matter. On the continuum from discursive/analytical to creative, this work will fall somewhere in the middle. In other words, we do not publish purely creative essays, ficto-criticism, or memoir, but we may sometimes include essays that more resemble autoethnography as long as these works also engage with life narrative scholarship directly. Book Reviews: If you would like to submit a book review or ask for a copy of book to be sent to you for review, please contact either Dr Lis Hanscombe or Dr Muireann Leech, at one of these addresses: lis@hanscombe.com.au or muirleech@yahoo.co.uk Peer Review Policy All research articles in this journal have undergone rigorous peer review, based on initial editor screening and anonymized refereeing by two independent referees.

【译文】《生活写作》是传记和自传领域的领先期刊之一，发表学术文章、批判性的创意个人论文和书评。我们对跨学科方法、跨文化经验和非英语背景特别感兴趣，尽管我们的主题范围广泛，例如：疾病和残疾、哲学和自传、生活写作的“极限”、南非生活叙事、女性和老龄化等等。我们确保委托给我们的工作得到专家和敏感的审查，并优先考虑快速和高效的处理。 《生活写作》主题版本的书籍列表可在以下网址找到：www.routledge.com/Life-Writing/book-series/LFWR 学术文章：如果您有一般性疑问或想为特别版建议主题，请联系编辑 Maureen Perkins 博士，邮箱：m.perkins@outlook.com.au 散文：散文与学术文章不同，高水平的分析和参考不太重要，但反身的“我”应该过滤主题。在从话语/分析到创意的连续统一体中，这项工作将落在中间的某个位置。换句话说，我们不发表纯粹的创意论文、小说批评或回忆录，但有时我们可能会收录更像自传的论文，只要这些作品也直接涉及生活叙事学术。书评：如果您想提交书评或要求将书的副本发送给您进行审阅，请联系 Lis Hanscombe 博士或 Muireann Leech 博士，地址如下：lis@hanscombe.com.au 或 muirleech@yahoo.co.uk 同行评审政策 本期刊中的所有研究文章都经过严格的同行评审，基于最初的编辑筛选和两位独立审稿人的匿名评审。
