Summary "This edited collection brings together research that focuses on historic figures who have been largely neglected by history or forgotten over time. The question of how to recover, reclaim or retell the histories and stories of those obscured by the passage of time is one of growing public and scholarly interest. The volume includes chapters on a diverse array of topics, including semi-biographical fiction, digital and visual biographies, autobiographies, and memoirs, among others"-- Provided by publisher
Notes "The editors conceived this project in conjunction with the Forgotten Lives / Biographies symposium hosted by the School of Arts & Communication, University of Southern Queensland, in April 2016, convened by Dr. Dallas John Baker."--Page vii
