      Arthur Chu Retweeted Dr. Ellie Lockhart. Republic serial villain.

      Death of the Author has never meant the New Critic/Modernist idea that "We must pretend the author does not exist at all and this book fell out of the sky" Barthes was making a very different claim, that the writer is not an *authority* on the work they wrotehttps://twitter.com/BootlegGirl/status/1367893300380844034 …

      This Ender's Game discussion has me convinced Death of the Author, at least as commonly understood, must either be compromised or taken to an absolute extreme

      Hence the specific word *author* (which connotes "authority"), which he wanted to replace with "writer" (or "scriptor") Obviously any written work is written down by a person, and obviously this fact is relevant They just never had total control of that process

      In fact "Death of the Author" often means asserting that you ARE allowed to "drag the writer into it personally" when the writer doesn't want you to That if a writer says, e.g., "Leave my religion out of it, it has nothing to do with this book" you're allowed to say "Bullshit"

      If a writer says "The bigoted stuff you see in my writing has nothing to do with my beliefs, I give you my word I didn't put that in intentionally" you can say "You're lying" or "You're in denial" or even "I don't care, it doesn't matter, it's still a bigoted text"

          Excellent point. Writing is such a time consuming creative process that the possibility that a writer is completely unaware of the implications of what he or she wrote is improbable but not impossible. The problem is how one assessed if author was unaware or not.

          Like how Tolkien can get fucked, it's an allegory for the fuckin war.

          Thinking of Simmons’ Ilium/Olympus cycle.. but I don’t think he really cares if people point out his insertion of a Islamaphobic plot point kinda out of the blue

          Especially considering that his later work was blatant explicit Islamophobia.

          A problem I have w/DOTA is that too often it is used, not to free the work from the supposed "tyranny" of the author, but to simply impose the tyranny of the critic/prof who insist THEIR interpretation is correct and everyone else's -- INCLUDING the author -- is wrong
