The relation between individual and society, or between individual and history, is a central topic in the genres of life writing. Hence research in life writing has to spotlight the term hero too. Based on Conrad Ferdinand Meyer’s “Jürg Jenatsch” concepts of the heroical are scrutinized within the framework of the history of life writing. Thus, both concepts of the anti-heroical as well as tendencies towards heroicizing can be detected in bourgeois life writing.
