AUTOFICATION literary neologism opened by the French novelist Serge Doubrosky in 1977 to call a genre very particular and rejected, as it constitutes an oxymoronic contradiction since it requires the concurrence of 1. May the author be in turn the narrator and the interpreter, that is, it is counted in the first person. 2 . Be a text and a paratext (title, cover, back cover, lapels) of a fiction lived by the narrator. This literature was previously developed by some, such as Azorín and Unamuno, but Doubrosky was the first to discover and define the characteristics of the genre, in which the character who represents them does not really tell what he does, but what they would like to aspire to do.
