名词 n.
  1. A biography that highlights the negative aspects of its subject's life.
    — Though this has been an era of magisterial biographies by such writers as Leon Edel, Richard Ellmann, Joseph Frank, Judith Thurman and Justin Kaplan, among others, it has also evolved a new subspecies of the genre to which the name "pathography" might usefully be given: hagiography's diminished and often prurient twin.
  2. A biography that explores the effects of a disease on its subject's life.
