Abstrakt: This article presents a critical reading of "A Theory of Knowledge" by Joyce Carol Oates, which appears in a recently published collection of stories about aging. The story is analyzed in terms of two ideas in current adult developmental theory, the idea of personal narrative as developed by Cohler, and the idea of generativity as developed by Erikson, Kotre, and McAdams.
