Etimologia del termine. La parola italiana libro deriva dal latino liber. Il vocabolo originariamente significava anche "corteccia", ma visto che era un materiale.

Once we overcome shyness or modesty, however, we almost all enjoy reminiscing. As the years advance, a . If you're one of the younger members of your family, take my word for it: You may not be eager to hear family stories now, but eventually you will. Get those stories now . If nothing else, get those stories recorded . Having those voices on tape, having the stories behind those photographs preserved, is a far more meaningful legacy in the long term than most other physical legacies. And in the short term the material can enliven a special occasion, such as a major anniversary, birthday, or memorial service.

Indeed, one way to improve the care an elderly patient receives in a hospital or nursing home is to write a brief history of their life and tape it to the door, making them a person with a story and not just another old patient. An experienced interviewer with a good tape recorder can capture memories that your family will cherish for generations. If they don. Start with a family photo history, with captions! Make a CD of it for everyone in the family. Don't put it off to the distant future. So often I hear people express regret about the stories they didn't get and wish they had now. Keep it simple, but do it now!

As a professional journalist with great curiosity about the lives of others, I've helped research and write several personal, family, and organizational histories. What can you expect when you hire someone to help you with all or part of yours? In general, we conduct interviews, have the interviews transcribed, organize and edit the material, help you find your . Everyone has a story to tell, but not everyone realizes how their life might interest others, especially in their own family . I am often hired by someone to capture the life story of a loved one.

And it needn't be one person telling the story. Sometimes when stars in the family story were raised in the . Nothing is more boring than mere bragging: you want to know exactly WHY they were the greatest, and you also want to know about their foibles, which are often best (most amusingly) told by others. A life story needn't be an ambitious project and can proceed in stages.

You can start with interviews: Get those memories on tape while the memories are still there to be captured. Get an elder to identify and tell stories about the people in those old photos. You can decide later if you want those interviews organized, edited, and transformed into a more polished manuscript and printed as a book.

Or start by writing, and if writing is a chore, work with a writing coach or a personal historian- -they can give you assignments and help you if you get stuck, or you can sit at a computer and write together, with them helping you remember and interpret what went on in your life. List all the important and not- so- important- but- memorable things that happened in the life of the person you are writing about. Use timelines like those I've provided links to, to help trigger memories. Looking through old photographs and memorabilia also helps trigger memories. See useful links below, in fairly random order.

Ordinary people, extraordinary lives. As a professional writer, I have helped many ordinary people remember important life events, and find the shape of their life story, usually at the behest of someone else in the family. The first gentleman whose life story I helped tell was an Ohio businessman in his late 8. Warren Webster. Webster had lost both legs to diabetes, had lost his wife after 7. He had retired from what he considered to be a modest career in manufacturing and was puzzled why anyone would want his life story, but telling it transformed him . As I wrote a story based on his interviews, I read it aloud to him, as his vision was failing. Webster was a factory worker who rose to the executive suite.

When I read aloud, . It became a wonderful memorial to his life. Life stories needn. I am working now on a photohistory of a family that fled to California from Kansas in the dustbowl and Depression of the 1. Most life stories are created mostly for the family . Equally important to history, I think, are the memoirs of Dr. Thomas Mc. Nair Scott.

I spent many hours interviewing Tom with a view to helping him write his memoirs, for private publication for his family and friends. A delightful man with great curiosity and (I learned from his former colleagues) a gift for diagnosis, Tom had become a pediatrician early in the twentieth century, when pediatrics was just becoming a field in America; it wasn't yet a field in England. Tom had a long, illustrious career teaching and practicing at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia and elsewhere, and a long and happy marriage to Dwight Mc. Nair Scott, who did biomedical research. At the request (and with the help of) his children, Tom finished his memoirs shortly before his hundredth birthday, not long before his death (see excerpts below). A wealth of articles, stories, websites, and other resources ?
