While widely considered Alexander Luria's (1902-1977) autobiography, The Making of Mind. A Personal Account of Soviet Psychology, published posthumously in 1979, is not a true autobiography but rather an autobiography with heterobiographic elements. However, the largely overlooked Spanish book, Mirando hacia atrás. La vida de un psicólogo soviético en retrospección, published in the same year, may be regarded as an authentic autobiography written by Luria. Based on the close reading of previously unknown archival sources, including Luria's autobiographic typescripts, the central argument of the article shows that it is likely that the history of this key figure in modern Soviet neuropsychology is embodied in various instances of his life-writing. Our reconstruction of Luria's life-writing is transnational in scope and multi-language based. It aims at drawing an overall account, which may later be followed by a series of contributions dealing with details of the history of Luria's life-writing.
尽管《心灵的塑造:苏联心理学的个人记述》被广泛认为是亚历山大·卢里亚(1902 - 1977)的自传,但它于1979年死后出版,并非真正意义上的自传,而是一部带有异传元素的自传。然而,同年出版的、很大程度上被忽视的西班牙语书籍《回首往昔:一位苏联心理学家的人生回顾》或许可被视为卢里亚所写的真实自传。基于对包括卢里亚自传打字稿在内的此前未知档案资料的仔细研读,文章的核心论点表明,这位现代苏联神经心理学关键人物的历史很可能体现在他各种形式的生平写作之中。我们对卢里亚生平写作的重构在范围上是跨国的,且以多语言为基础。其目的是勾勒出一个全面的记述,随后可能会有一系列探讨卢里亚生平写作历史细节的文章。
