THE FICTIONAL AUTOBIOGRAPHY : THE ART OF NON-FICTION IN MOLL FLANDERS

Öz

This article deals with how Daniel Defoe, the pioneering 18th century novelist, used the emerging genre of autobiography as a socially acceptable springboard for his novel Moll Flanders. At this stage the novel was in its infancy and lacked social and literary credibility. Therefore, Defoe used the form and structure of autobiography as a basis for his fiction, while he also raised issues critical to autobiography, such as questions of objectivity and self-knowledge. In my article I first discuss the emergence of the autobiographical genre, and then examine the text of his novel Moll Flanders revealing how Defoe uses the genre to create a complex and ambiguous psychological profile of Moll, while simultaneously raising issues of self-knowledge and objectivity central to the consideration of autobiography.
