N2 - This paper is an attempt to examine the concept of genre and its usefulness in the analysis of life stories. The present analysis is based on narrative interviews focused on the line of a participants life, which he or she was asked to draw. Inspired by the terms agon, pathos and anagnorisis, borrowed from the theory of literature, three levels of genre are brought in: action, experiencing and reflection. The life story genre is also discussed as a kind of configuration, which means storytelling in an intelligible way that expresses continuity, shape and purpose in human life. The psychological meaning of Northrop Frys generic plots (mythoi) typology is also examined. Some aspects of life story genres are illustrated by research examples.
