Summary/Abstract: The Author attempts at defining the notion of ‘self-fiction’/‘auto-fiction’, taking a source understanding of it as her starting point. She follows up the Serge Doubrovski concept through references to Jacques Lacan’s modern autobiography and psychoanalysis, and presents self-fiction as a result of combination of the autobiographic subject with a subject of unawareness.
