Thesis (Ph.D.)--University of Oregon, 2006.

This thesis is a discussion of Chinese autobiographical prose from the early Han dynasty to the early medieval period, focusing primarily on the authorial postface of Ge Hong (283-343), a scholar and government official best known for his seminal work, Baopuzi. This dissertation examines Ge Hong's autobiographical work within the context of Chinese literary and intellectual history and considers the extent to which literary subjectivity in early China was determined by historical, intellectual, and generic demands rather than a concern for ostensible fidelity to lived experience. Ge Hong's approach to autobiography challenges many commonly held assumptions about self-narrative and suggests that early Chinese texts might provide a new perspective on a genre traditionally dominated by Western texts and theory.
