Sinopsis

Michael Rosen writes:&ldquo,In 1997 I completed a Ph.D. on the subject of authoring a piece of children',s literature - a book of poems that was eventually published as &lsquo,You Wait Till I',m Older Than You&rsquo, (Puffin). In the thesis I tried to put to one side mystical and Romantic ideas around creating poetry and instead, locate the whole process in reality. This is in defiance of a very different idea which refuses or defers reality, arguing that all that we know is what we say and write. So I first wanted to make the argument that reality does indeed exist and I (along with all other human beings) have a specific place in it. There is also the matter of how we perceive and produce texts, through what has come to be known as &lsquo,intertextuality&rsquo,, along with the question of how we integrate audience to what and how we write. I sought to bring together these different processes and then by using them as critical tools, set about examining how I came to write a group of poems.áGoing through all this, led me to the conclusion that I had nudged myself towards a Marxist theory of authorship and that I had demonstrated its method in such a way that others could adopt it, adapt it and use it.&rdquo,
