The Autobiograhy and Memoir page features extensive personal narratives on various subjects. It contains classic and contemporary first-person accounts by artists, writers, scholars, and public intellectuals who remember their times and pay tribute to their contemporaries. The project is part of the International Biography Initiative (IBI) that started as a collection of interviews with Russian sociologists who came of age during the Khrushchev era and took part in Gorbachev's reforms. IBI was subsequently extended to include international scholars and public figures who reminisce about their teachers, colleagues, and professional careers. The relevant materials can be found in the Erving Goffman Archives, Intercyberlibrary, and Pragmaciberlibrary.
