   Extractions: Easier - A biography is a written story of a person's life. It is also a type of book. Harder - Biographies are written stories of a person's life that were written by someone else, while an autobiography is a person's story written by themselves. Biographies make past history more real and easier to understand by telling about real people and actual events. People reading the biography can satisfy their curiosity about well-known individuals and can experience historical events as though they were actually present. A good biography presents the facts about the person's life including what the subject did and how they influenced their world. It should describe the person's personality and provide an explanation for why he or she acted in certain ways. Most biographies are interpretive; they not only present the facts but also tell what those facts mean. Biographers make their writings accurate by learning as much as possible about their subjects. They study materials such as diaries, personal letters, and autobiographies. A good biography should be objective and balanced, but those lofty goals are not always achieved. Some biographers present a biased view by selectively presenting only the facts that portray the subject in either a favorable or an unflattering way.

He propounded the vedantic tenet that Brahman the Supreme and man are of one essence and that all people should strive to cultivate this vision of oneness. He established four spiritual centres in the four corners of the country, thus' upholding the underlying unity of the holy land of Bharat. Author - K.B.Ramakrishna Rao Shankaracharya Amala-kamalaadhivasini maanaso vaimalyadaayini manoine i sundara-gaatri susheele tava charanaambhoruham narnaami sadaa ii (O Goddess, You live in the lotus of purity, You make the mind pure, and You are known by the inner mind.

   Extractions: BIOGRAPHIES AND CRITICISMS CLASSIFICATION Architects Artists Criticism of Individual Works General Biography Procedures ... Special Categories POLICY BACKGROUND Prior to the adoption of Dewey 19, the UIUC Library used a variety of special numbers for both individual and collective biographies, in addition to "B.", which was assigned for individual biography, and 921-928 for collective biography. Many of the previously used numbers for both individual and collective biographies have been discontinued in Dewey. In accordance with the policy that was established at the adoption of Dewey 19, "B." is no longer used in establishing new biography numbers. Under 920, only 920.001-920.09 and 920.7 are used for very general collective biographies. Most new (unestablished) individual biographies , as well as other, subject specific collective biographies, are currently classed by subject , adding either standard subdivision (for individual biography), or (for collective biography) as appropriate from Table 1. For purposes of establishing a consistent policy regarding the use of previously established biography numbers versus when to establish new biography numbers, CPAC voted in 1997 in favor of a

    Extractions: North Carolina State University Introduction A while back - I’m too embarrassed to tell you how long ago this all started - I decided to undertake a biography of the German philosopher Johann Gottlieb Fichte (1762-1814). It would have been perfectly normal, I suppose, to begin the work with some hesitation. I faced a formidable task. But “hesitation” doesn’t quite capture my state of mind. The fact is, I was nagged by anxiety – and I’ve never really shaken it. I knew I couldn’t expect much sympathy from other biographers. After all, I had an open field – the last major biography of Fichte appeared in 1922 – and, if only because I had been foolish enough to choose such a forbidding subject, I had little reason to fear competition. Most of the grueling detective work that biography usually entails had been done for me. Since 1962 twenty-nine volumes of the Complete Works I had another enviable advantage. My subject was clearly significant enough to be worth the trouble. From the 1780s, under the impact of Immanuel Kant’s great
