Biography

A biography is a written account of an individual’s life, detailing their experiences, achievements, and significant events. It typically encompasses information about the person’s background, education, career, relationships, and personal reflections. Biographies aim to provide insight into the character and influence of the subject, often placing their life within a broader historical or cultural context. Unlike autobiographies, which are written by the subject themselves, biographies are authored by someone else, offering an external perspective on the individual’s life. Biographies can vary in style and depth, ranging from brief sketches to extensive volumes, and are often used in literature, history, and education to inspire and inform readers about notable figures.
