The present study aims at providing an overview on the contribution of Russian scholars to the evolution of ‘Life-Writing’ studies. The importance of the formalists’ studies on auto-biography and memoirs (although fragmentary) and the Soviet studies on the ‘dokumentalnaia proza’ are described, as well as the works generated in post-Soviet times both in Russia and abroad. The paper deals with the main problems that remain open, especially the relationship between reality and fiction and the genre question.

The paper deals with the main problems that remain open, especially the relationship between reality and fiction and the genre question.
