Michel Foucaults 1969 essay What is an Author? sidesteps the stormy arguments surrounding intentional fallacy and the death of the author, offering an entirely different way of looking at texts. Foucault points out that all texts are written but not all are discussed as having authors. So what is special about authored texts? And what makes an author different to other kinds of text-producers? From its deceptively simple titular question, Foucaults essay offers a complex argument for viewing authors and their texts as objects. A challenging, thought-provoking piece, it is one of the most influential literary essays of the twentieth century.
