Miernik presents students, academics, and researchers with an examination of Frederick Rolfe’s image that draws on the work of Philip Roth, Michel Foucault, and Philippe Lejeune, as well as
theories of autobiography and biography. The author has organized the main body of his text in five chapters devoted to the literary image, autobiography and biography, the biographies of
Frederick Rolfe, the projection of the author’s image in Frederick Rolfe’s fiction, Nicholas Crabbe’s status as a character between autobiography and fiction, and the letters of Frederick
Rolfe. Miroslaw Aleksander Miernik is a faculty member of the University of Warsaw. Annotation ©2015 Ringgold, Inc., Portland, OR (protoview.com)
