This article presents various uses of the term ‘pathography’: as a genre in medical communication, an autobiographical patient narrative or a narrative case report written by a professional. A discussion of classic pathographies (Sigmund Freud, Karl Jaspers) is followed by an analysis of patient pathographies, with particular emphasis on the history of the Polish ones, only to eventually come back to narratives created by professionals (Alexander Luria, Oliver Sacks). The aim of this article is to draw attention to a certain affinity between the writings in the field of medical sciences and humanities.
