Zusammenfassung
This text explores the genre of historians' autobiographies from a historical, literary and historiographical perspective. These texts function both as a source of historical documentary and as a literary artifact and sources of historiographical transformation. The author postulates the development, during the 20th century, of six autobiographical styles by the historians who wrote about his life: humanistic, biographical, monographic, egohistorical, postmodern and interventional. Each of them represents a way of conceiving history for each of the authors, who project that historiographical conception in their autobiographies.
