| - | The '''author function''' is a concept related to [[deconstruction|deconstructionist]] [[literary theory]]. It was developed by [[Michel Foucault]] in his [[1969]] essay "[[What is the Author?]]" | ||

| - | ==Theory== | ||
| - | Foucault posits that the [[legal system]] was central in the rise of the [[author]], as an author was needed (in order to be punished) for making [[Transgressive art|transgressive]] statements. This is made evident through the rise of the printing press during the time of the [[Protestant Reformation|Reformation]], when religious texts that circulated challenged the authority of the [[Catholic Church]]. | ||
| - | |||
| - | The author function does not affect all texts in the same way. For example, the author of a science [[Textbook|text books]] is not clear or definable as the author of a well known [[novel]]. It is not a spontaneous creation or entity, but a carefully constructed social position. | ||
