Abstract
The article examines the socio-literary phenomenon of “auto-fiction” as a continuous process, the study of which requires systematization of existing research and a more careful study of those which are not yet completed on its new stage of development of the phenomenon of “auto-fiction”. The article proposes to divide the history of autofiction development into two stages: “genre” and “ego-documentary”. The “ego-documentary stage” is examined in detail: identifying how changes in the perception of autobiography have influenced autofiction; identifying acquired egodocumentary features in autofiction; examining how ego-document researchers work with autofictional works; and suggesting the relationship between autofiction and photography in the context of the expanding form of autofictional works. The novelty of the study lies in the application of an interdisciplinary approach, thanks to which it becomes possible to study the reasons of changes in autofiction. This article is relevant due to the study of the modern phenomenon of autofiction and its wide field of application, since it can be used in the field of cultural studies, sociology, philology, psychology, philosophy and many others. The study shows that the perception of autofiction is radically different in the "genre" and "ego-documentary" stages of development, which justifies the division into stages; a direction for an even greater expansion of the concept of "autofiction", concerning both the form of the work and its content, is identified.
