      okay, i can see it. but isn't that just a basic ass accurate observation, that it matters to us what we read not what dude was trying to write, that like all things is subject to sturgeon's law in what people do with it?

      that seems basic-ass, yeah; but mainly i see Death of the Author used to claim that any random idiot's wilfully ignorant misinterpretation of a text is just as valid as an actual analysis that engages with authorial intent

      This is irksome because if art is anything at all, it's communication of authorial intent -- art is work with a result intended to induce a sequence of emotional states in the experiencer of the work's result. DotAuthor denies that communicative act.

      and i totally agree that that's taking it too far in a revealingly self-indulgent direction, i just don't think that means the core observation is bad or useless, because people take literally fucking everything too far in a revealingly self-indulgent direction

      i just realized that it's exactly like Java: the language is fine, the culture is terrible you and @StevenBrust don't hate postmodern philosophy, you hate postmodern culture which you should because it's fucking terrible

      Dunno. I could make an argument for the opposite, at least insofar as I'd include Zelazny in pomo culture. (Though perhaps that more post-structuralist, which opens a whole new can of cliches.)

      speaking of which, what should I try of Zelazny's if I found Nine Princes bad due to there being nobody in the book I didn't want dead
