Sinopsis

This book not only discloses and examines different functions and concepts ofáauthorship in fiction and theory from the 1950s and 1960s to the present but itáalso reveals, at least implicitly, a trajectory of some of the modes and functionsáof the novel as a genre in the last few decades. It argues that the explicit termsáof much of the theoretical and philosophical debate surrounding the concept ofáauthorship in the moment of High Theory in the 1980s had already been engaged,áalbeit often more implicitly, in literary fictions by writers themselves. This bookáexamines the fortunes of the authorship debate and the conceptualisations andáfunctions of authorship before, during, and after the Death of the Author came toáprominence as one of the key foci for the moment of High Theory in the 1980s.
