In this paper, you will reflect on the concept of authorship via Foucault’s “author function” and Barthes’ “death of the author.” Consider how these concepts of authorship continue to be relevant today via media, social media, and technology (i.e., social media platforms, blogs, films, artworks, books, news, etc.). Choose a platform or object to discuss in your paper then consider some of the following questions: How is authorship determined? How has the author function changed over time, especially in the age of the internet? Is it an individual or collective effort? Who owns the text once it is written/made? How is the text interpreted? How does the author’s name influence what is written? Does the audience and the location determine the reception of the text? Finally, consider how appropriation functions within the platform or object (this can be in the form of a question or simply a thought).
