Post by prokopetz Death of the author: Treating the author's stated interpretation of their own work as merely one opinion among many, rather than the authoritative Word of God. Disappearance of the author: Treating the context and circumstances of the work's authorship as entirely irrelevant with respect to its interpretation, as though the work had popped into existence fully formed just moments ago. Taxidermy of the author: Working backwards from a particular interpretation of the work to draw conclusions about what the context and circumstances of its authorship must have been. Undeath of the author: Holding the author personally responsible for every possible reading of their work, even ones they could not reasonably have anticipated at the time of its authorship. Frankenstein's Monster of the author: Drawing conclusions about authorial intent based on elements that are present only in subsequent adaptations by other authors. Weekend at Bernie's of the author: Insisting that the author would personally endorse your interpretation of the work if they happened to be present. Reply by bugbastard | thought this was going to be a joke, but these are all very real things you see people do. Reply by prokopetz I'm never more serious than when I'm joking.
