characteristics of biography

What are the differences between a biography and a novel?

An epic is a long poetic text that typically depicts the heroic or legendary deeds and/or adventures of historical or fictional (generally legendary) figures.

A novel is a fictional (or fictitious) prose text of book length, which generally depicts the story of a character(s) or event(s), whether they be historical or fictional.

A biography is a factual account of a person's life, written by someone else. It aims to present an accurate depiction of events and experiences. On the other hand, a novel is a work of fiction that tells a story created by the author. Novels often feature characters and events that are not based on real people or occurrences.

ethnography is a story based on the truth of the society, and novel is just a story which is not real.

A novel is fictional whilst a biography is not. A biography describes significant events in an individuals' life but a novel can be written about almost any concept imaginable.
