Abstract
As a part of a broader study of the emergence of continuous texts in ancient Egypt, the present paper discusses Fifth Dynasty non-royal funerary inscriptions, conventionally labelled 'autobiographies'. I first review some features of the Western genre that have been sometimes associated with these texts. Following a brief description of the Fifth Dynasty texts, I examine innovations in the form and content of the texts. I consider the raison d'etre of these texts - which, it is argued, lie in presenting the relationship of the owner of the inscription to the king - as well the various modes of such presentation.
