    it is extremely funny to me that the phrase "death of the author" is based on a French pun/reference that is lost in english, thus erasing the original authorial intent

        getting some doubts on this from native french speakers, so maybe actually a coincidence? which makes it even funnier. the text is alive, friends! we have seized the semiotician's signifier! c'est la jouissance! after all, the author is dead.

        Le Mort d'Auteur is the translation, and it sounds like the very famous Arthurian retelling Le Mort d'Arthur.

        If you go looking for Arthur, you find there is nothing outside the text.
